Sounds like a lot of work to just basically reinvent the .375 Weatherby Magnum. How much real difference on game would there be between a ".366 Weatherby Magnum" and the .375 Weatherby Magnum? Cheers! Bob F.

250 gr at 2,651 fps = 3,900 ft/lbs 286 gr at 2,495 fps = 3,952 ft/lbs Cheers! Bob F. :)

Yep! (y):) Ruger M77 RSM .375 H&H Mag Cheers! Bob F.

Man, I know I was lucky! I'd heard that they kill almost as many people per year as hippos do. :LOL: Cheers! Bob F.

Africa's Most Dangerous Game: the Guinea Fowl The look on my PH’s face told me this wasn’t going to be pleasant. We’d flushed a flock of Guinea Fowl and the one that we were after had headed for thick cover. We were going to have to go in and pull him out by the beak. “Well, I guess we’ve...

.30-06 8x57JS 9.3x62 (Honorable mentions to .22 WMR and .375 H&H Mag) And a little something just for fun: :)

I'd also like to ask when are the Woodleigh bullets expected to be in stock? Thanks. Bob F. :)

A large part of the Limpopo Province is bushveld country. In my admittedly limited experience, shooting distances will be relatively close. I've been three times, to the same place, and my longest shot was about 150 yards (estimated; stepped off). On my first trip, my friend Kate made good use...

I enjoyed seeing the pics! Thanks for posting them. Cheers! Bob F.

Semi-Jacketed Soft Point Cut-Through Edge bullet. (SPCE) "The cut-through edge locks the jacket and lead core together, while also producing a clean entrance wound and distinct, easy to follow blood trails. Appropriate for light to medium game." source...

IMO, it's not anymore difficult or inconvenient to take two rifles as compared to one. I took two rifles (in one case) on my third and last trip to South Africa back in 2005. (Plains game only.) If taking two rifles, then take one rifle chambered for a commonly available cartridge and use it in...
