    Nosler ballistic tip for Gemsbok ?? Yes or no?

    How smart/stupid are animals during hunting

    Thought I would share these with you. Are they dumb or smart? 1. Texas deer - I was sitting in the middle of an open field hunting, tied of walking. Soon a bunch of does approached me, came up to me sniffed me and barked at me. After a few minutes they walked away, I just laughed. 2. Texas...

    The stock for rifle from 375 H&H and Up!

    I have the 550 Magnum Lux in 375 h&h and love it. Less felt recoil than my 300 WM. Everyone who shoots it is amazed at the lack of recoil. I guess this is subjective, I would try them if possible for fit and shoot them .

    If you couldn't continue to Safari...

    What do I do now? I am old and nature has taken it's toll on me. I booked my first safari in 2015 with Kubusi safaris and had a wonderful time. I booked the trip because I always wanted to go to Africa and a pending surgery scared me. I was in horrible pain and literally had to crawl from my...

    SOUTH AFRICA: Third Time Lucky With Umzingeli Safaris & 3S Safaris

    Nice write up. I also hunted with 3S Safaris and had a wonderful time. My wife also raves about our trip and tells everyone about it. We were car shopping this past weekend and my wife had all the sales folks looking at the pictures on her phone and telling stories about our trip!

    CZ Safari Classic .375 question???

    I had no issues with my rifle in 375. It is accurate and recoil is very light even with 300 grain full power loads.
