Hi, from Germany and Namibia. I hunt since child age and am always keen to learn more about the behavior of the animals. I like plains game hunting a lot but am also into big five. I would like to come into contact with hunters from Southern Africa.

Greetings Klipkop
(Alles van die Beste),

Khomas Highland Hunting and Fishing Safaris of Namibia, welcomes you to the greatest forum on earth

I advertise for and help arrange hunting, fishing and touring adventures for clients wanting to visit Aub Safari Lodge at Khomas Safaris (1.5 - 2 hour drive from Hosea Kutako Airport), but I live in Alaska.

The .375 H&H is my absolute favorite global hunting cartridge.
It is comforting to carry said .375 here in coastal Alaska, while fly fishing along our many salmon streams.
That is because this part of the world is home to some huge gorillas with knives on their fingers, that also enjoy salmon fishing.:ROFLMAO:


I have larger caliber and smaller caliber rifles but, the .375 H&H remains the very best one for me.
The one I have used the most is my
old Brno Model 602, with a vintage and simple 4x Zeiss scope, in steel lever rings.
When only fishing, I pop the scope off and carry the rifle with express sights only.
A local Gunsmith installed a large white (porcelain) front bead on this and other rifles of mine, for my old man eyes.

Also, I have a Ferlach Built (Franz Sodia) double rifle in .375 H&H but so far cannot get it to regulate properly with 300 grain and or 270 grain bullets.
(It is not marked for whatever load the maker might have built it for).:cautious:
Eventually I will crack the code, or my name isn’t Rumplestiltskin.:ROFLMAO:

Anyway, I am looking forward to your hunting and other adventure stories.

Waidmannsheil !
Velo Dog.

Welcome to AH, Klipkop

I’m based in the Grahamstown area of the Eastern Cape.
Animal behaviour is interesting, for sure! It’s important to understand this when hunting.
I’m really enjoying jackal hunting at the moment, and understanding their movements and cycles is fascinating.

Glad to have you on the forum

Best regards
Marius

Nice Report! Im about to pull the trigger on booking the LDE with Patrick. I have been talking about it with him for about 3 yrs now. Romain hit me up the other day with an offer I can't refuse for 2027.

Andrew, I commented that your on 375 H&H for sale was the fair price.

Like I commented, my classic stainless has the original 24” barrel.

Did you buy yours with the barrel already cut down to 21” or did you do it (or a gunsmith)?
