I just checked my reloading supplies and unfortunately do not have any more, but I am almost dead sure they are the same as some S&B that i used for practice. They came in little plastic bags with white print on. They were very accurate in my old Mauser
Professor,
What a great adventure it must have been. And an amazing experience.
The skin Trophy is an absolute bonus and very beautiful!
Enjoy the Hunt and shoot straight

Being a local who loves to peruse the local gun shops i think you will possibly have issues getting ammunition for the 325wsm.
The 300wm is a local favorite and just about any shop stock good ammunition for it. Also the 300wm packs enough wallop to take any of the local planes game...
HI Brickburn,
I have hunted Leeukop often and it is my favourite hunting spot.
Looks like the TSX'x worked well for you. I personally use a load of 150gr Hornady Interlocks in my 270 at approx 2560fps. They have worked well on all animals from Impala to Kudu and I always seem to get pass...
Congratulations.
These are fine rifles, probably not the same finishing as a lot of other guns but as a working rifle, you cannot go wrong with it! And the 9,3x62 is a great round!
Enjoy the hunt and shoot straight!
Hi There...
Been using my Mauser 93x62 for a few years now. I have had a few scopes on my including a Leupold 1-3x25, a Leupold 3-9X40 and a Lynx Lx2 3-9x40. I found the low magnification scope a little difficult as I do not have great eyesight. But a good quality 3-9x40 or similar will do the...
First off, thank you for the reminder to those who plan on an African Safari to practice from the sticks.
Living in South Africa and having hunted a fair bit, the one piece of equipment besides a trusted rifle that always goes along on a hunting trip is a trusted pair of sticks. I prefer...
This is quite shocking. In 2018 my brother and I Hunted the Umkomazi river valley.
I shot several Kudu and Impala with 180gn Sako Hammerhead bullets out of my 30-06.
Not a single one recovered even on some raking shots.
Perhaps at the shots being mostly 180m + the velocity was low enough to...
Damn this is a tall order...
For me, a 22lr is a must for regular practice.
For hunting:
270Win (My Brno zkk600 with its little plastic stock)
30-06Spr (My Brno zkk600 deluxe)
9,3x62 (My old Mauser :love:)
And if I was lucky enough to try the dangerous ones I'd prefer a .404 Jeffery
When it comes to hunting things that might have the intention of hurting you I prefer the more traditional actions like the magnum Mauser and BRNO and CZ actions.
My 2 cents
Perhaps mine does not evoke the nostalgia that other listed her do, however, I have long dreamed about a 550 Magnum built on a ZKK 602.
It needs no fancy walnut as I will consider it a working rifle. Has to have a barrelband front sling hook and express sights.
Decent trigger and a matt blue...
