I have read many articles from this sight, but just recently joined. I had the privilege of hunting south Africa a couple of years ago. Of course hardly a day goes by that I don't dream of returning. I am an avid reloader and I am particularly fond of my 35 whelen.

Welcome to AH Jbg!
Jbg, welcome to AH! I’ve always wanted a 35 Whelen ever since, as a kid, reading Townsend Whelen’s articles about it and his survival articles.
Looking forward to your participation!
If you’re so inclined, a short write up and pictures of your hunt would be enjoyable.

Welcome to the man from the Bluegrass State.
We’d love to hear about your RSA hunt.

Welcome aboard Jbg. I share your love of the 35 Whelen. Mine has been to Africa twice. Do you reload your ammo? If so, how about sharing your recipe? I'm getting 2730 FPS pushing a 225 Gr. Barnes TSX. FYI writing up a story about your previous African hunt along with photos would be a good thing.

Business is the only way to fly. I'm headed to SA August 25. I'm hoping that business isn't an arm and a leg. If you don't mind, what airline and the cost for your trip. Mine will be convoluted. I'll be flying into the states to pick up my 416 Rigby as Thailand doesn't allow firearms (pay no attention to the daily shootings and killings) so I'll have 2 very long trips.

Hi EGS
I read your thread with interest. Would you mind sending me that PDF? May I put it on my website?
