Hello everyone. Im very new to the hunting and I really love Africa. The sunset, grasslands, baobab trees. All feel like heaven to me. Just like our very first ancestors. Hunting in Africa is like a dream to me. I found AH when searching and now I feel one step close to my dream. Thank you AH. I really like to learn more about hunting in Africa. So any tips, recommendations, news are warmly welcome.
Thank you.
 
Wishing you a warm welcome . What do you hunt in Sri Lanka ? And what rifles or shotguns do you own ?
 
Well in srilanka hunting is illegal. Any kind of hunt. Africa is the closest hunting destination to our island.So Africa is the best choice for me.Oh and I was the sectional captain of our college sport shooting association in 2019. I m completely new for hunting but luckily not for shooting. I really like to learn about the hunting. So any tips are welcome and thank you for your comment.

Okay , young man . I understand . What firearms do you own ? And which game are you interested in hunting ?
 
Hello and welcome!
 
Welcome aboard! You came to the right place. Browse through the forums here and tap into the extraordinary experience and expertise of the people here. It's astounding what you can learn.
 
Unfortunately Firearm ownership in our republic is only for VIPs and other special state officials. But I own a Mod B3 -1 china air rifle and a Mod WTS 800 sri lanka.Air guns are allowed for civilians.I think it is good to use fire arms provide by safari company for rent. Less troubles with gun permits too ,isn't it. Well I have used T56s and .22 s.
I hope to hunt cape buffalos(is it true. Are they famous as black death among the hunters [emoji848]?) , warthogs, leopards,lions . I really interested in predators of dark continent.

Son , you've got a long long way to go before you can even think of hunting any of those things . First , you need to learn how to shoot some real firearms . Airguns are basically toys . Then , start with hunting something simple like birds or something. Then , work your way to deer or wild boars . Only then , should you think about tackling things like leopard or lion . And let's not even go into the subject of Cape Buffalo.

You seem quite young to me . How old are you ?

Thank you for your tips and advices. Really useful. Yes. I should gather more experience before facing those beasts.

Welcome to AH !
 
:S Welcome: to AH!
 
Nyati, on AH you can learn something new every day.

Yasindu, I think your best bet is to read current and past hunting reports. When and if you can look for a future AH group hunt, explain your situation and desires and perhaps someone will take you under their "wing" and show you the ropes. You also might search out someone in Sri Lanka that has hunted and try to develop some report' with him. BTW welcome to AH and Good Luck with your searches.

Sir, I will gladly take that 16 gauge off your hands. I was waiting for your Winchesters but I'm a sucker for a 16 ga.

I bought a great deal of the brass he had for sale, plus I already had many hundred rounds.

How much brass are you looking for?
