    Zimbabwe hunting property

    Yes, from zim, prefer florida. I agree completely with the concerns expressed by Wheels, except maybe about the price. Price and security of title go together. I'm also unsure if it is at the bottom and improving. It appears to be. The Chinese alliance has allowed some investment but the lack of...

    Zimbabwe hunting property

    I am again looking at a hunting property in Zimbabwe, about 5000 acres. I has some small hills and a creek, the rest is bush. It is between harare and the valley Just off the main road. Title is looking good due to the circumstances and the neighbor is a game operation owned by a German which...

    458 win mag rifle choices CZ 550 vs Winchester 70

    I have both. My CZ received the ahr option 3 upgrade and it is a very nice looking and shooting rifle. I like the action better than the m70. I like the safety better on the m70. Once you do the upgrade they are priced similarly.

    Safari Suggestions

    That budget should get you a nice elephant hunt and since you didn't list that on your list I assume you have not done one. My only warning is then you will want to do nothing but hunt elephants from then on!!

    Spartan Plainsgame

    The most spartan hunts I have been on are the auction hunts in the Zambezi river valley. You get a tent site on the Zambezi. However, those areas are not the best for your entire list of plains game.

    Zambezi valley hunts.

    It makes a good volume of bait but all at one time. When it is hot you need a cooler or something to preserve. We just had three more buffalo come available in the valley, not in the two parks areas. The camp would be primitive style also.

    Zambezi valley hunts.

    The lion is added to these camps at the reserve price. As you said it is still available so the quota may still be purchased. Hopefully Parks will stick to issuing only one lion this year with no exceptions. The reserve is a bit high but not compared to the price of lion in other African...

    Since you derailed my post I intend to post again. Please answer my one question to you which was when was the last time your two feet where on the ground in nayakasanga? I know you are a middleman, a salesman that sells hunts for money and maybe even to go on free hunts. You seem to want...

    2012 hunts in Zambezi valley

    Again, I agree with both of you that the accomodation of bouma safaris that national parks came up with is not fair. They lost matetsi two through some bad politics and were squeezed into nyakasanga. Parks even allowed them to establish a new camp site. This is a bad decision but it didn't ruin...

    2012 hunts in Zambezi valley

    Mr. Neilson, I understand you are a competitor and would rather that all buyers of any hunts buy from you and your preferred areas. I also understand the issues in Zimbabwe and no they are not perfect. However, you do not have the right to step into my thread and covey your own personal...

    What caliber to practice with?

    I agree with the post above. Just shoot and shoot often. Shoot the 308 and then let it cool while shooting the 22, then shoot the 308 some more. Don't worry about the change in caliber. More importantly, shoot free hand, shoot off sticks, sit down and shoot, shoot fast, lean against a post...

    Is the .375 H&H strong enough

    The swift a frame is a soft, I guess as a limited partition bullet the aframe is an improved soft. Regardless, the discussion was really about caliber and not bullet type. I still question whether my 416 with the same Aframe in 400 grain would have been more effective.

    Is the .375 H&H strong enough

    Ok, I'm going to share my experience from a few days ago with my 375, model 70. This is my favorite gun in my cabinet and I shoot it very well. I hit a cape buffalo quartering to me at about 65 yards square on the shoulder. The 300 grain aframe broke his shoulder but did no further damage...

    338 Winchester Magnum

    I am unsure what you mean by the "big stuff." I think the 338 is plenty big for all plains game. I use a 250 grain a-frame but see that most like the 225 grain. If you are not taking DG then why take two guns so close in performance? Instead, take the 338 and then something like a 243 or 22...

    Scope failure

    So i am less than 30 days out from my lion hunt and the scope on my 375 has failed. It is a Swarovski 2.5 x 10 illuminated reticle. The reticle is crooked inside. I kept loosening the scope and squaring the crosshairs after a few shots until I noticed that the turrets were almost sideways...

    How do we go about importing our trophy mounts back from South Africa into the United States?

    Contact Lisa at D&b CHB. They are in chicago. I have used them every trip and they have been great. They can handle the wildlife inspections and then get the skins to your taxidermist or send your mounts directly to you.
