I have 2 pair of the Ranger boots. The wide toe box does look a little strange at first but you feet will thank you. I added custom insoles and am very happy with these boots. Much lighter than the Courtney and much quieter than the traditional hiking boot I wore on my first safari.
In 30 06 I have used hornady outfitter CX in 180 gr. Very good performance on animals, and my gun liked it. Couple gemsbok, Sable, blue wildebeest and a couple impala. Bonus is I can find it in stock locally.
My wife joined me for safari in Limpopo in 2023. We extended our stay with several days in Cape Town. We stayed at Blackheath lodge, which we really enjoyed. Did private tour of the cape one day and the Winelands one day. We loved Cape Town.
2 hunts in Limpopo. First one in August, no snakes spotted. Last year we hunted in April and saw a huge black mamba our last day. He was out hunting, luckily we were in the truck heading back to the skinning shed.
I used them in my 30-06, 180 grain. I thought they performed great on Sable and Gemsbok. My 375 did not like the 250 grain outfitter CX so I went back to 300 grain barnes.
I used a Steiner 1-4x24 on my Model 70 in 375H&H it was a great scope. True 1x so you could shoot with both eyes open has a lighted dot and the scope is not busy.
I'm loving the 450 Rigby that I recently purchased here in the classifieds. I would like to secure more brass for it. Does anyone have any they would be willing to sell?
