Good morning and welcome. You mentioned you hope to have your hunt at the end of 2023. Not sure exactly what you mean by this, but you probably don't want to book a hunt for November-December timeframe. That's the start of summer in the southern hemisphere (think May-June in South Carolina). Could be really hot and also the rain creates problems Depending on what country you are looking at, May through September are the more typical prime hunting months. Typically beautiful weather. For buffalo, later months are preferred as the leaves have fallen off of more of the trees/bush, helping to improve visibility.

Jake, Sorry to bug you again. I was wondering if you could share a. couple actual pics of this crossbow with me?

Xpedition Archery USED Scrapeline390X Sniper Gray Crossbow XACW1001 - Light Wear - Needs Bolt/Arrow Guide Spring UA5689​

If it is in a decent shape, would you be willing to sell it for $100 shipped? IS it missing the retention spring that goes over the bolt?
Thank you Ferenc
