    Current DG Battery. Please Share Yours

    Most people know that I have strong feelings about the 375, all bad. That No.1 with premium .458 bullets would be my first and only choice between the two. It will usually drop cape buffalo with one shot. while a .375 will usually not. That No. is a a few inches shorter over all that the bolt...

    At What Point Are DG Hunts No Longer In Your Future?

    As you likely know, one can shoot lighter loads, in the mighty .500 and still drop cape buffalo, dead right there.

    From Africa. They had a small shop and factory there. It was a mom and pop operation that designed and manufacture an excellent bullet. I believe that they came out before Barnes came out with their TSX. (not sure about that.) As I remember The daughter and her husband brought the...

    Alpha grade bullets that SHOULD have made it but didn't

    I have always used BorderView brokers. It is slow and expensive. I am happy to ship them to you if you look after the border crossing. USA law. Most USA border brokers will look after you. brian

    When did you first truly awake to “The Horn of the Hunter”?

    Late September, 1958, near the Steveville ferry, antelope hunting with my dad. Willys Jeep. I carried a 30-30 Win. Model 94 and now my grandson has it. Brian PS. Remember the line in the book. "It's bad to waste a deer, but it's a shame to waste a boy", or some thing like that?

    Wonderful Buffalo. Your first shot was perfect. Good choice of bullets, those A-frames really work, don't they.
