This looks like a great site! I have been around hunting/shooting forums for 26 years. I don't yet recognize anyone here but there must be some who are familiar with me, for better or worse.
I decided it's time to get serious about Africa. I have been wanting to hunt Africa for at least 20 years, but life kept getting in the way. Since I am in my early 60s and I'm good health, now is the time.
I have a lot of research to do and questions to ask. Before I jump in, here is a little about me.
I was a USAF pilot for 24 years, then worked in the forest products industry in Oregon for 12.5, and am currently the GM for Unknown Munitions.
I am a 1000 yd BR competitor and build my own rifles with my own lathe and mill that I have at home. I play lead trumpet in a big band, and I still fly a little. I also get in a little fly-fishing and and a little hunting as well, though not as much as I used to.
I have been shooting .416 to .458 bore rifles for probably 25 years. It's time to take one to Africa!
