Bryan here

Welcome aboard Bryan. You've got things in perspective. first the Dream then think about how to get the money to pay for it. Most of us here are in the same boat, or else we'd be hunting all the time!!! What species of game have you taken? What kind and caliber rifles do you own? Do you reload?
Hello Shootist. I have the cheap calibers and have shot the cheap species.
.300 Win Mag, .270 etc. I have shot gemsbok, hartebeest, and most of the
smaller plains game. I am going back to the East Cape in May to hopefully
get the last few affordable plains game species. I have a .375 H & H
so when I get back I am putting a kidney on eBay to pay for a leopard hunt.
 
Welcome to AH, Brian; we're all of a like mind here; dreams of hunting Africa (and elsewhere) and some wilt a LOT of experience. Everything from newbies (me) to multiple hunt veterans,and the best PHs and outfitters in the Dark Continent.
 
Bryan, finances allowing (got none) I'd take that kidney, I'm only running on 25% of my remaining one. It don't worry me, at three-score-and ten I'm doing OK. (Especially if it helped a good bloke get back to the big A).
Cheers, and good hunting.
 
Welcome to AH Bryan!
We look forward to you sharing your stories!
 
We all started with a dream. What area of the Eastern Cape are you hunting?

Around Grahamstown. Going with Game4Africa. I have hunted above and below there. With Southern Cross to the north and
Kubusi to the south. Both great hunts with great folks. Going to squeeze in a day or two with my PH from Kubusi Johan Petzer
on this trip. He has his own outfit now. Great friend!
 
Welcome to AH. What took you so long?

A kidney on eBay... dang that’s a good idea. I wonder if I could get by without one. Now the wheels are turning lol

thanks for your reply bob , is it feasible to build a 444 on a P14/M17 , or is the no4 enfield easier to build? i know where i can buy a lothar walther barrel in 44, 1-38 twist , but i think with a barrel crown of .650" the profile is too light .

I have quite a bit of 458 win mag brass, most of it new. How much are you looking for?
