Hello everyone. I'm happy to join the AH Family.

Been doing loads of reading over the years on AH

Biltong hunter by nature and my favourite rifle is and old Blundee Mauser in 93x62.

Picked up the nickname a few years ago on Mkuze Ranch and it seems to have stuck

Happy hunting and shoot straight

Inkonkoni, welcome to the AH forum! Looking forward to some pictures and a report on your biltong hunts! Sadly not my favorite treat in Africa. My old teeth have troubles chewing it...LOL!

Wishing you a very warm welcome , Inkonkoni . You will fit right in , amongst us . The 9.3x62 mm Mauser calibre is a personal favorite of mine . Is your Mauser a Type A sporter or a Type B sporter ?

My favorite factory load for the 9.3x62 mm Mauser is the 286 grain Nosler Partition soft nose . What is yours ?

This hard earned trophy of mine was the work of a 9.3x62 mm Mauser ( an early pattern BRNO ZKK - 600 ) and the aforementioned factory load .

Thank you very much for the warm welcome.

My 93x62 is a commercial mauser action manufactured in 1920 according to stamps on the action. Unfortunately I have very little history on the rifle. It was a rifle I bought out of my grandfathers estate and no one in the family seems to know mutch about it. None that is poke to even knew he had the rifle.

My pet load currently is 270 Speer Hot Core bullet running at +/- 2250fps. I don't buy mutch factory ammunition as I rather enjoy the experience of reloading. I have only ever had problems with the load when the man behind the gun did not do his bit.

Beautiful trophy! I don't keep very many as most of my hunts are for meat and biltong... but some good ones do deserve a place on the wall!

Happy Hunting and shoot straight!

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?
