Welcome to African Hunting!
If reading through this forum doesn't convince you to plan to hunt in Africa, I don't know what will.
Took my first trip April 2021, going back July 2022.

Well, i just scored a great deal on a cz 550 in .375 that i will use on my buffalo and then i have a tikka in .300 win mag for the plains game. I should be all set!

@Bigugly
Welcome mate good choices of calibers but if'n you listen to some on here you will soon be chasing bigger calibers and double rifles.
Namibia is a great place to hunt plains game but no matter where you go I'm sure you will be well looked after and have a great hunt.
One thing I'm greatful for is you didn't mention the 6.5 crudmoore manbun or the horrible little 243 otherwise you would be in for a world of shit stirring especially from me
Have fun and enjoy the forum. We are a mad mob full of information ( sometimes useless), humour and great stories.

Hello. Despite an account set up a couple of years back I am new to the forum and posting for the first time. I have hunted many states in the lower 48 and have gotten bit by the Africa bug. I hope to take my first safari in 2023. Looking to get as much information as possible. Greetings from Vancouver, Wa USA!

Dear Bigugly

Enjoy the planning process...before you know it, it is time to board the plane.
Have fun preparing an opportunity to create memories to cherish forever.

Bigugly, please accept my belated welcome aboard. By now you've probably figured out how friendly we are. Your new or new to you CZ 550 in 375 H&H will serve you well. Sometimes new CZ(s) need a little TLC to get them up and running properly. If yours has trouble feeding every round from the magazine don't despair. There are a number of old articles on AH re. this issue and resolution.

A belated welcome as well, from your neighbor just north. (Victoria)
