Good stuff Karl!

Although, I am surprised by his bullet choice.
 
Love the writers style and very much enjoyed the story.
 
thanks for sharing! fantastic experience!
 
What an inspiring story!
One of these day...

Ps. Wish more national parks in South Africa would allow culling of excess animals, especially elephant.

A lot of parks do auction off trophy and cull hunting packages but not elephant

Shouldn't be. No need for solids in a .500 on buff. Maximum damage with similar penetration. Unless you are thinking VC still were regulated with Norma ammo.

No, I was referring to the DGX. I’m guessing that the hunter was using the new ones. The old ones had so many issues of breaking up.

The Normas or something else wouldn’t have surprised me, but it looks like it did the job well enough.

Great story, thanks for sharing. And congratulations to you and Karl and staff on your old buffalo, a true trophy.(y)
 
Thanks for sharing and congratulations to all involved! Can’t wait for the next instalment:)
 
Hi Desperatezulu

I was referring to the weight of the whole animal.

It’s neck was huge though

Regards
Hi Ronald - all good! I was being a smart arse. :giggle: And perhaps there was a comma there that I missed.
I thought maybe the neck weighed 90kg which would still be a big chunk.

Thanks for sharing the story!

You have the wrong person. I have no idea what you are talking about..

I have been using a "Personal Property" rider on my State Farm homeowner's policy to cover guns when I travel with them.
I have several firearms, but only one is worth over $20K (A Heym double rifle).
Very interested.
Would firearms be covered for damage, as well as, complete loss?
I'll can let the State Farm rider cover my watches...
Behind the scenes of taking that perfect picture.....

trperk1, I bought the Kimber Caprivi 375 back in an earlier post. You attached a target with an impressive three rounds touching 100 yards. I took the 2x10 VX5 off and put a VX6 HD Gen 2 1x6x24 Duplex Firedot on the rifle. It's definitely a shooter curious what loads you used for the group. Loving this rifle so fun to shoot. Africa 2026 Mozambique. Buff and PG. Any info appreciated.
