Greetings from Down Under

@Bren7X64 As you and your cousin start to figure out what you're interested in, I highly recommend taking a look at the hunt specials offered here. They are great deals and usually you can modify them by adding on additional PG.

I think I have yet to read a bad report on any of this site's sponsors, so you're definitely in the right place.
 
Welcome to AH !
 
Your 9.3 x 62 should serve you just fine. I'm going on a Plains Game hunt this August with Cruiser Safaris. My 10 day package includes Kudu, Blue Wildebeest, Gemsbok, Impala, Blesbok, and a Warthog. We did a lot of research prior to booking with Cruiser Safaris. Their package was similar to what other outfitters were offering. But their price was a lot less. After booking with them I discovered a half dozen local guys that hunted with them and loved it. Several have booked multiple times. I am taking a 35 Whelen, which is a kissing cousin of the 9.3 x 62 and a 6.5 x 55 Swedish Mauser. From all the articles and posts I've seen on this site, I'm not expecting any issues or regrets.
 
Welcome to the best forum in the world!

Wow, what can I say?

No-one has even crapped on me yet and told me that what I want is a hunt in Kazakstan or something.

This is (well, it seems to be) a very gentle forum.
 
@Bren7X64 This is a rare place give the state of the internet these days. Nothing but friendly people that share a passion for hunting.
 
Welcome Bren7X64,

All the best with your planning for your trip. You are certainly among friends around this forum.

Take Care,
Marius Goosen

I have a Chapuis 450-400 double that looks brand new and shoots well, never been hunted from what I can tell. I am willing to part with it as I have a 375 H&H Sodia on it's way from Dorleac & Dorleac. I am looking for $9,250 for it and if you are interested, I am happy to send you some pictures. Regards,
Steve
