Very cool!

Interesting. Please post a pic of the final product along with something for scale.

Gorgeous buffalo!

Never heard of Bailey Bradshaw (I am in South Africa) but the guns on the website sure look good. I’d add a set of barrels in 9.3x74R for practice and for your son to shoot his first buffalo with. Good luck with the choices!

Amazing to have this experience with your son. Congratulations!

Thank you for sharing your experience. Looks incredible!

I was born and raised in Kimberley and have hunted the area for extensively. I’ve caught my fair share of springhaas too! It’s a lovely place with lovely people. Congrats on your hunt!

@PCC600 can I be your gunbearer on your next safari? I’ll shine your shoes every morning too.

Started out with 150gr in my 308Win then moved up to 165gr. I’ve taken numerous springbuck, blesbuck and kudu with them. Always performed satisfactory. Prefer the 165gr at slightly lower velocity to limit meat damage as I mostly hunt for the pot.

Classic custom rifles by South African makers. Started in 2021 and still down this hole. Hope it never ends!

Some very good mentions above. Some of my favorites not already listed: Along the Hunters Path, Kai-Uwe Denker The Hunting Imperative, Richard Harland A Far From Ordinary Life, Fred Duckworth The Last Ivory Hunter, Peter Capstick

The stuff dreams are made of!
