Great pic. I wish I'd have gotten one like that with my baboon!
Sako A7 in .300WSMGreat pictures for a great trip! What rifle were you using for these kills? Just idle curiosity, again, great trophies!
That is correctGuster, congrats on a great hunt! I could not find a web site for Legelala but I could find one for Legelela with the outfitters name Reiner Linde. Was that the place or a misprint?
I shoot a Kimber 8400 300WSM. It worked great in Africa, too. What bullet are you using? Handloads or factory?Sako A7 in .300WSM
So the night of Day 10, we tried something that is illegal in Canada. We went out night hunting with spot lights. I have never been involved in this before. But we had a blast. Amazing how things change at night time. First of all, I could not believe how fast the porcupines are. At home they are a very slowing moving animal. But in Africa they are like NASCAR fast. The quills are amazing and I brought them back as a keep sake. We also shot Spring Hare, what a strange looking critter.
