This is just my own personal experience and observation on the 6 Cape buffalo I’ve taken last two years (which may be more and be significantly less than others here) but I have used the 350 gr Norma factory ammo in 375 and had mixed results with penetration. Both noted by myself and PH on at...

Have to say those are two huge cats. That second one.... wow.

I think you'll really enjoy the Luangwa Valley. I did my hunt last year in August and did a review on it. Hope you find what you're looking for.

I flew both a few days ago and didn't see them weigh anyone's. I think Airlink has the smaller Embraer planes though so if you have a bigger bag it would probably get sky checked before to walk into the plane. They had fairly tight overhead bins.

There were two other hunters headed to Lusaka and they had the same experience. Everything was checked through.

Just did the Qatar Doha to JNB flight and then transfer to SA Airlink to Windhoek route. Qatar was adamant that I'd have to reclaim my bags and re-check in at JNB when I arrived. Got to JNB and the passport control looked at my baggage tags and said no need to reclaim simply go to your SA...

"I also dont hold anyone's personal choices against them until they start telling me what mine should be. " Boom, love it - totally true Connecting through JNB to Windhoek tomorrow. Should be exciting.

Wow, very nice rifle

Keeping an eye out for pictures and the rest of the story

Thanks for the feedback @Tanks @Hogpatrol While I don't want to spend the time I may go ahead and get it redone then.... The more I think about it the less I want to chance it.

Has anyone flown on Qatar recently where they required a TYPED version of the form 4457? Looking back on this thread it seems to have been an issue. I'm heading to Namibia (IAH - DOHA - JNB - WDH) in mid July. Went to get this signed at my closest CBP office and they screwed up my only typed...

I saw another post on AH recently where Qatar was supposedly cancelling flights from Doha to JNB later in the year. They weren't getting a lot of answers from Qatar. Now this is happening with Emirates so it seems a pattern is developing? I'm heading to Namibia mid-July on Qatar to JNB and...

+1 for Qatar. I think they have a flight from DFW into Doha and straight into JNB on a relatively short layover. Best of luck in re-booking your flights and hope you get to enjoy your hunt

I have it on good authority that there were buff taken from 40 inches to a massive 46 inches at the end of the season. Eland quality is probably as good as it gets on the plateau. Big leopard taken on Waterberg and one in Kaokoland too. I believe you'll find most of the pics here...

I'll tell you what - I went to pick up a Heym Express in 404 in Dallas just a few weeks ago and had a chance to try the 89B in 470NE at the private range. Very unfortunate mistake on my part. Next thing I know I have a deposit in on an 89B in 470NE and I'm thinking to myself "what have I...
