I went to Africa last year and use 140 grain SST and it worked great. Shot Kudu, Gemsbok, wildebeest, impala, blesbok, springbok with it. All except Gemsbok, wildebeest one shot kills and no tracking at all.

Here are photos for now. I will for sure describe when I have more time. I just used my Weatherby 270 with 140 grain Hornady SST. Worked great, all except the Gemsbok essentially one shot kills. Put a not necessary follow up in Blesbok and Wildebeest. Guy in the big hat is my friend.

Hello, just returned from our first safari and wanted to share our experience with everyone. First, let me start by saying I have dreamed of Africa since my early 20's and now 30 years later it finally became a reality. When I was young, even though I had no money and no hope of going on...

Nothing better than setting by the fire with a good bourbon and good cigar after a great day of hunting. I really like Onyx in the Maduro wrappers.
