Thanks for putting the record straight Dalton! Couldn’t agree more!

Scott, I have read your comments and have to chime in. The timing of MP post claiming rights to the Omay was definitely premature and to be fair, I believe it was intended to cause confusion and concern amongst D&Y’s clients and potential clients. As you correctly say, it IS a small industry...

Sorry for the confusion, must have been a typo on my part! Lol At least everyone figured it out, and it seems an admin must have corrected it! [emoji1417]

After all the debate, questionable claims and confusion………..Dalton & York Safaris have re-signed the Omay for the next 5 years. In my view a well deserved result to a messy and non supportive debacle. Anyone hunting or booked with them can now breathe easy and look forward to a fantastic...

Yeah, I agree…..somewhat, but when the claim of winning the concession was premature and the background was questionable the language was probably not unjustified. Dalton York have resigned the concession for 5 years! It seems that justice has been served and possibly we should be a little...

Maybe Martin can provide an update?

Yup, as I said, there seems to be some confusion - intended or otherwise - the next two weeks will hopefully see something firm that the hunters can work with. I would sit tight for a bit before getting stressed.

Well I guess it’s popcorn [emoji897] time. Seems to be some confusion about the awarding of this one………I guess time (and hopefully not too much money) will tell who will be running it for the next while. Holding thumbs for a fair and just outcome to the awarding of it, for everyone’s sake.

Great offer.

My bucket list hunt - assuming money was no issue - is definitely Niassa. That must be the most remote old school area left in Africa. Plenty of other great areas……and most will give you an awesome experience, but I think for my money Niassa is THE ONE.

There are big cats all over Zambia. Luangwa is certainly leopard central! But having said that, we got trail cam footage when I hunted buffalo down in the Zambezi Valley of some bloody big Leopards! And a good number of them. This was at the confluence of Zambezi and Luangwa Rivers, just east...

The 425WR shoots a std 410gr bullet, which is pretty much all I have found for mine. I am unfortunately not able to assist with any data on a 450gr bullet. I am however very curious, because with the COAL sensitivity of the 425WR and the limited case capacity, I am battling to imagine where the...

@PeteG sitting in Perth this is as close as I can get to hunting at the moment. Really glad I captured the story of the hunt while it was fresh in my head. That and the pics have made my evening!

What an experience! Wow, glad everyone got out in one piece…….more or less! Great trophies, and even better memories. What real hunts are about! I sure hope I never have to have a buff shot off of me, but it sure makes a great story! Thanks for the report! Niassa is on my bucket list!

Nice offer Mike! [emoji1360][emoji1360]

@spike.t looks like You and Billy put on a great hunt! Great that you were able to get Vanguard in for the hunt! [emoji1360][emoji1360] The only Clown missing from the circus was @PeteG

Just to add my 5 cents. I have a ZKK602 in 375H&H and it is a fantastic gun to hunt with. I inherited it from my father after many years of him hunting with it and it remains one of my favourite rifles. As a small correction, some must have left the factory with a barrel band, as mine has...

Great Report and fantastic memories of a clearly magic hunt! It is clear Michael runs a "proppa" operation! Hunting in Zambia will certainly create memories for life!

Lovely Sable, great story of what sounds like a magic hunt with mates! Great to hear your hunt went well. where did you end up hunting?

I must agree, however i am more curious as to what it could have hit that would have caused that, as the second one hit shoulder and it performed very nicely. The apparent inconsistency is my concern. Thought maybe someone may have insight. Woodleighs have always been touted as great in slower...

No Woodleigh experts? I was hoping to get some feedback on the performance, as the first one I wasn't that impressed with, whilst the second seemed to work very well! Curious as to what would make the first one fragment like that - having said that it still had reasonable weight retention.

Massive Bosses! WOW!!

That will work!

I also just wanted to share some pics of the bullet performance from my Woodleigh softs that I used on the buff.

Thanks for all the great comments guys. This really was a memorable experience and fantastic hunt. I can confirm that Buffalo hunting is addictive. I must also say how privileged I feel having been able to hunt during the Pandemic. I really feel for you guys stuck in lockdowns and missing long...

what A beautiful rifle with an even more beautiful old bushbuck. Where did you hunt that?

Kevin, The 375 Flanged would have been my choice if I had bought my double new. However when I got my Krieghoff, it was already specced with the 9.3 x 74R barrels as an add on for the .470NE. I must say, that as much as i know the 9.3 x 74R has taken plenty of DG, I personally feel its a little...

Hi Jacques, Thanks, I believe it is still Chobe Bushbuck down there.
