What’s your go to gun for cape buff?

I don’t mind spending the money, I don’t plan on buying some budget rifle with a cheap stock. I want real wood or good quality synthetic. SAKO is a little above my price range. I’m trying to stay within $1500-$1800

Iv used 139gr privi so for hogs, worked well. For anything bigger I’d go with a pronoun 140gr

So Iv decided In the near future I’d like to get a rifle chambered in 30-06. I had a Winchester 1895 I sold and loved it. Im currently looking at the Winchester Alaskan Because I like the fact it come with iron sights. Can anyone recommend any other brand I should be looking at. It will be my...

If you want it, get it. Treat yourself. There are plenty of guys who use the .375 on elk and moose and bear. Can you use it on a deer sure, maybe a little big maybe not. Life’s to short if you want it get it.

I own a CZ 550FS in 6.5X55. Just used on hogs for now till I move north to Alaska. Anyone else like them?

Iv read in books a lot of hunters in the dark continent don’t use slings because when you have to make a quick shot it gets in the way. Which ruining a shot could make or break your trip depending on the animal your hunting. Also the sticks are good because you can carry them when your stalking.

I’m in Florida and down here the outfitters use free range as meaning there fenced on a large property but there is no guarantee you’ll shoot something. It’s mostly catered towards first time hunters. They’ll charge $350 for a half day hog hunt. There are places that charge less then that but...

what makes a Big game hunter. Or what makes a good one in your own thoughts

How would I know if it needs it? I was going to do it to protec the stock

Yeah I will most likely have it bedded before I shoot it

Iv found that is the way to go

Im looking at the Winchester 70 in .375 H&H. My question is, right out of the box what does the rifle need to be Dangerious game ready? I.E. trigger job, bolt polish anything?

I told my wife I wanted a 375 H&H and she got so pist

just won a copy of jungle lore on eBay for $22. What kind of read am I in fore

A decent hard copy of jungle lore is big money

I found that the .375 will be more useful for me on other game here. The .416 was a thought but would be overkill for my current needs.

Any of capsticks books are great. I enjoy Jim Corbett books. Are you looking for hard copy’s or for a kindle. I have a good number of great books in both of my libraries. Although not about Africa man eaters of kumoan and leopard of Rudraprayag are great books

I just started this book last night after reading man eaters of kumoan. Just curious if anyone else has read it and how they enjoyed it.

How are the iron sights? And what is a decent scope?

I would like the CZ but I don’t want to spend that kind of money on a rifle to have to dump more money into it.

can anyone tell me how they like there Winchester Safari .375? I’m torn between the CZ and Winchester

Has anyone had a problem with the bolt handle being to close to the stock? And does the stock come with the twin cross bolts

I hadn’t looked at the Winchester m70 but I have and will do some research as iv always been a big Winchester fan. I hunt deer with a 2006 1895 30-06

Thank you to everyone for the warm greetings.

How are the iron sights Are they accurate?

I wish I had the guts to do that to my stocks. What oil did you use? BLO,TRU?

When you did the oil finish what did you use to seal it?

Originally I was going to get the 9.3x62 but cannot find one anywhere. Then I thought about the .416 but the .375 is a better fit as I can use it on other game where the .416 would be over kill.

I have a CZ 550 in 6.5x55 and love it

Im currently looking into buying the CZ .375 H&H. All the reviews iv read online are outdated, can anyone give me an idea non how they like this rifle?

Well I’m sure evryone grew up wanting to hunt the big 5. I’m not sure how realistic that is. I’m planning on buying a CZ safari classic in .375 H&H hopefully within the year. I’m still new to hunting but I have 3 animals already bagged.

im erik. Hope to one day hunt Africa. Mainly hunt hogs and deer
