    Remington 700 as a safari rifle anyone?

    No thanks, when you break the bolt handle off one then you understand why.

    How long from the time you returned to your home did it take you to book your next safari?

    Try and convince me the 243 is actually useful

    Totally agree. Too small for big stuff and too big for small stuff. Never been a fan.

    Zastava rifles in 458 wm

    SOUTH AFRICA: Hunting With Ka Maoto Safaris

    It’s been five years since my last trip to Africa when I hunted in Zimbabwe so was very eager to get back. Landed in Joburg on the 3rd of August after a long couple of flights from Aus. Stayed two nights at the Sunrock Guesthouse in Kempton Park which was great. Took a day to visit Safari...

    Parker Hale 458

    There is a few pics in book and online of parks guys during Rhodesia days carrying them. Was none left in the armoury of one of the big parks offices that I got to see in Zim a few years ago.

    Beautiful rifle. Shame the bolt is on the the wrong side though! Hows it shoot?
