My son and I will be going to Moz in 18 months for buff and PG. This will be my fifth trip to Africa and his second, but his first for DG. His "heavy" rifle is a steyr in .376. It is a very handy little rifle and shoots the Hornady factory .270 gr load MOA. He loves it and shoots it very well. I am a big fan of the 300 gr bullets from the .375, particulary the TSX. It is superb on buffalo. .300 grain bullets are not a good choice from the steyr due to cartridge length (like stuffing 180s into a .308). Anyone have any experince with the 270gr Hornady Interlock and buffalo?

Had an excellent classifieds transaction with JoninCO. A truly honest and standup member. I wouldn't hesitate at all to deal with him again. Thanks, J!

Hi Lance, Hope you well. I collect Mauser rifles and they are very much part of my cultural history in Africa. Would you consider selling the rifle now a year on ? I'd like to place it in my collection of Mauser rifles. Many thx

I saw where you hunted elephant with backcountry safaris in Zimbabwe.
Was looking to book an elephant hunt and wanted to know how your hunt went
and if you would recommend them.

Thanks
Mike
hi, do you know about lions hunters, leopard hunters, and crocodiles hunters of years 1930s-1950s
I'm new to Africa Hunting. I would like to purchase a Heym 450-400 double rifle. I'm left-handed but would prefer a non-canted gun. Is anyone in the community considering parting with theirs?
