Hi, One of my favorite animal. Thank you for all this informations
Took this one during a stalk and walk hunt on Kalahari Rangers area - owner Jérôme Van de Walle - near Botswana.
Stopping production because commercial success is not there does not mean that the product is bad.
I agree with to don't take two rifles during the same hunt.
If you prefer take your R8 perhaps it's better I just keep using my R93 :) because I know very well its mechanism and the trigger ...
It's sure that this can be decisive in the choice of hunters are looking for their first double African rifle?
If you know the real reason why Blaser stop this production, could you share it with us please?
What are the consequences of installing a optic on these models?
With the Blaser originally planned for that, does this have repercussions on the firing and the convergence of the barrels?
Thank you for the advice but I do not charge.
But what do you think of this shooting tests? Do you think accuracy of the rifle is good ... or bad?
If I'll buy it, I could try other industrial cartridges with differtent loads and bullets.
Hi,
We tried a 375 H&H double rifle (second hand) without scope.
Cartridges different from those of the factory setting.
It shoot 1,5" at 55 yards.
Holes one above the other in the same axis. Left shoot under right shoot.
Why do you think please ?
Sure my dream is a 475 NE n° 2 or a 470 NE double rifle but I can't do it $$$.
At this moment I haven't yet hunted the elephant but it is one of my priority project to go to meet this species.
Thank you a lot for share your experience!
I own only one rifle : a R93 with 3 barrels. I took buffaloes with the barrel 375 HH without problem. I havn't doubt on this caliber. Also on the rifle. I use it since 1996 on various species and differents countries (Africa and others)
Why not biggest caliber than 375 HH. I think for a hunter...
Hi,
Nice bikes but I prefer hunt rifles :sneaky:.
I have a lot of interest for this thread because I look for a double rifle caliber 375 H&H.
Red Leg,
I know is different rifles but for dangerous games, do you prefer your S2 or your R8 ?
Surgeon1,
If you own only one double rifle for...
Sir,
I'm in touch with a professional to realize one of my dreams which is the purchase of an express Blaser S2 375 HH. This one is used but is announced as new.
Would you please be so kind as to communicate the weight of your weapon to me so that I can compare.
Indeed the weight which is given...
"Melanoma " it is for that I look for a hat
I did not know Filson but that catches my attention.
Shootist : What model do you use please ?
About the size, I read it's better to book one or two size bigger for confort and aeration. What do you think of that please ?
Hello,
I need your help !
Usually I wear a cap during my african hunts (and other outdoor activites) but I look for better protection for the sun.
Please what are your advices for a hat ?
I find this one Tilley LTM6 AIRFLO but it is just a exemple ...
Congrats for this nice kudu !
I hunted on this typical territory with very nice lodge and I know well the owner. Jérôme is a good and passionate professional.
I think this is the best hunting bullet I used.
I used it a lot in 270 Win 140 fr and 300 Win Mag 180 gr. And I still use it.
For African big games, I have 375 H&h 300 gr.
I hope to find some 375 H&H cartridges boxes to sell but it's very difficult...
Same response as akeate.
Never the PH I know will take the risk of wounded another buffalo : respect of the animals, security for the client, the tracker and him.
Hi,
For my second buffalo hunting trip, I contacted African Echo Safaris. I hunted in the past with Glaeser Conradie and we stayed in touch. He is the PH with whom I have the best connection during the hunt.
To make this hunt interesting, we fixed to hunt only a buffalo with good drop-horns...
I Chris,
I read you booked a trip with Thwane Safari for buffalo.
What about this trip and the hunt ?
Did you took a good buffalo ?
Sorry for my bad English.
I hope to read you.
All the best.
