I would also like to offer this free hunt to a disabled veteran,must have harvest tag for zone B. call Jim for more info at 715-330-1545.

I think thats a bunch of crap, these kids are suffering, and to have them go to the bottom for a chance at great joy is very wrong. these kids go through a lot, thats why I try to help. hopefully all the great people on this forum will spread the word. thanks.

I would like to offer a free hunt to a critically ill or disabled child. This hunt is on private land for 2012 zone B. Must have harvest tag. I know it's getting late but the charity I work with is having a hard time getting tags, so I thought I would try to get my own child. I'm set up for all...

Thanks for all the info. if I go with a M70 in .375 ( more versatility ) with a leupold scope, barnes bullets and practice practice practice I should be fine, I dont want to mess it up with buffalo.

I dont mind recoil, I have shot rifles up to the .460 weatherby but the wby was a bit to much

I was wondering how much more effective the larger calibers (over .375) were on buffalo. I know proper shot placement and bullet construction are essential, but all else being equal is there a difference? also whats a good bolt-action rifle for buffalo? is bigger better or should I go with a .375?

Sestoppelman When you say 2800fps is way beyond any factory load, buffalo-barnes has a 2800fps TSX load, also Ammo& ballistics #4 list two factory loads a 225 partition and 225 accubond at 2800fps. as far as my magic, fastest barreled whelen in existence and you have never seen such velocity...

everyone has there own opinion, dont knock till you try it.

Yes book speeds and real speeds differ considerably, but I have great success with nosler #6, you should try it.

I have had great success with the velocities from nosler #6. it also shows 2789fps with 59 grs of R15.

Yes I chrono that load. 20 shot 2805fps ave from a rem 700 cdl 24in bl. why do you think its a dangerous load? 60.5 gr of varget is right from nosler reloading guide #6. 200fps over the federal load makes a bit flatter shooting but no difference on game. I've always had great weight retention...

I used 225gr accubonds at 2800 fps in the 35 whelen. I shot Kudu, Blue Wildebeest, Zebra, Impala, Blesbok, Warthog, all shot within 40-100 yards. great damage to vitals. I only recoverd 2 bullets, great weight retention and expansion. I also use same load for Black Bear and Whitetail Deer, same...

After being at Kwalata Wilderness and joining this Africa Hunting . Com I started looking at many other Africa hunting websites I have noticed that Kwalata Wilderness doesn't charge for curtain things like some places do. For examples: Don't charge for airport Pick up or Drop off, Don't charge...

I forgot to mention that this Kudu had 12 ï½½ inch bases

Take the whelen and bring the ammo home. the whelen with 225gr accubonds is awesome on plains game. you brought the ammo there why not take it home? 11lbs there 5lbs home thats not excess baggage.
