Hello everyone,

I am Bruce and i am in north east iowa. I own and run an auto repair shop along with building wet tumbling systems for cleaning cases.

I joined today to start planning my first african hunt and this looks like the place to get a lot of answers.

I have the opportunity to go on a hunt in Namibia with someone that has been hunting in africa a few times so i couldnt pass it up.

I am looking forward to learning the what to and not to do stuff. thanks in advance

Good luck with your planning.

I just got the offer last friday before he left on vacation don't know any specifics yet till he gets back later this week just know namibia right now. I don't remember who he has hunted with in the past. He is delivering a gun to one of his customers -- he is a gunsmith --- the gentle man stayed with him over the summer and he didn't get the gun done in time. so he is headed back in june to deliver it and asked if i would like to join him.

I just couldn't say no to the chance of a lifetime.
 
Hi Bruce, this is the right place for planning that trip. Lots of info on here! Good luck on the planning.

Best Regards

Jerome, do you think my last post in rough camping must maybe shift as an article?

Good afternoon,

I'm trying to get in contact with Mr Butch Searcy. I have the opportunity to buy one of his rifles chambered in 577 nitro Express however the seller does not have any of the paperwork with the information about what ammunition or bullet weight was used to regulate it. I know he is not making firearms anymore but I wanted to reach out after seeing one of your post about him.

Hi - the only (best) method of sending you the .375/06IMP data is with photographing my book notes. My camera died so the only way I can do it is with my phone. To do that, I would need your e-mail address, as this
new Android phone is too complicated to upload to my desk computer, which would be easier and to down-grade, reduce the file sizes.
Best wishes
Daryl
