RANCE SAFARIS

Beautiful buffalo! Congrats!

Handload. 114gr H4350 under the 450gr TSX. The red dot was ideal for this hunt. I wanted something unobtrusive yet quick to get on target. The buff was looking right at us. The skinner said it was a perfect heart shot. Not sure where they recovered the bullet. I assume it was towards the hind...

Thank you to everyone. I still am on cloud 9. I told someone to punch me to ensure I wasn't dreaming. The PH said it was the fastest he's ever seen a buff go down. The weird lefty rifle worked just fine. ;-) About a 60yd shot through very heavy brush. After the shit he ran maybe 20yds and...

I don't know the man, but I'd be remiss if I didn't help a kindred soul in his time of need. PayPal sent. Best wishes fellow traveller...

Thanks. Do yourself a favor and don't ever look though a Z8i scope. Your wallet will thank you. I'm ruined. ;-)
