The particular safe of the Brno

Thanks Sestoppelman, I too reload almost everything I shoot. Mine is a Brno ZG 47, built in 1962 I bought some 20 year ago from a collector. It had 3 (fhree) shots fired… Did not buy the dies, prices are crazy for special calibers here, 300/400 USD. With the above ammo, and a 60 years old 4x32...

I got an original Brno in 8x64S. Great shooter and hard hitter. The best factory hunting rounds I tested, mono Brenneke TOG 14,2 gr. Probably my next choice for African plains game short and medium range. Never reloaded it

If possible, just to be on the safe side, invest some hours in the weight room and Go to 65. i shifted to DNA after years hunting with longer bows, like Xlr 8, and tests with shorter ones like Revenges. Can not be happyer. I was one of the first bh testing the early prototypes of Hunors, a LOT...

Hey, Sabatti does make a big game over under, up to 500 NE. I should have to test fire it in. Month, more or less. Might be' very interesting, in my opinion

I am also very interested in it; Beeing used at 416 Rigby, I am afraid of high pressures, and ejection problems, that theoretically may occur. Any esperienze should be' appreciated

I quite disagree with most of the replies. Go with a 243, and if you put it in the right place any african animal will Go down... Do not mess with african animals, T hey are not comparabile with european or north american ones. Penetration is the key. So, stay on 500 grs of total arrow weight...

Perception is, also, in evolution in a normally brained man. There is usually an evolution in the way one approaches "hunting"; at the very beginning, and especially if you are young, you look for 10 days 10 animals. When time passes, you get step by step distant from that way of thinking, and...

I bowhunted with him in 2010. Understands bowhunter's needs, and is very serious and prepared. 100 % ok.

They are to me, also. Do not really understand some objections I read. Zenbear, you mean that when you go hunting in Africa you might better use no PH ? (YOU KNOW, using a professional to help you is not fair to mother nature, right ?) What is not clear when I say "I am asking for the concrete...

I perfectly agree with you, Bluey. Thanks

Boys, I am asking FOR the concrete possibility of harvesting a top 10 hartebeest, with bow and arrow, and OF COURSE in a fair and ethical contest. I do not sell hunts, I want to buy a hunt. By the way, my sons are not for sale anyhow (the 9 months are the easy step, it's the second 20 years step...

Any interesting offer will be considered.

A small suggestment: next time you buy a SECOND HAND rifle, you have to have it cheked first, and shoot it later. The previous owner might be a hunter (the rifle has some scratches, but has maybe 5 shots), OR a collector autolearner gunsmith. This second one is very dangerous: I know people...

CZ and W safari express are quite different rifles. "Go with the one that fits you better", is a good suggestion, especially if you are talking about socks, boots and girls. With DG rifles-calibers, on my opinion it is not, unless you like to buy them just for fun. I.E, with my 70 SE in 375 AND...
