Evening team from the UK!

I have been reading this forum for a few months and have developed a yearning to visit Africa, see the beauty of the land and hopefully bring back a trophy or two to decorate my study.

No doubt to the average American hunter, I have very little experience; to a British stalker and wildfowler I have a little more. My experience is primarily wildfowl and rough shooting together with a little stalking with a very experienced neighbour.

I am looking forward to learning more, considering some opportunites and opening my horizons and hopefully booking in the first trip of many!
 
Welcome to AH, you picked a great place to start your journey hunt Africa.
 
Welcome to AH.
What have you been out stalking?
 
Well, I am fortunate to live in Norfolk, and we have an (apparently) endless supply of muntjac together with some decent red and the occasional Chinese Water Deer. My neighbour has access to some farming land nearby.

Unfortunately, firearms licensing in the UK has been paused with regards to new licenses as they cannot do home visits to check security and vetting. So I am forced to go out with him and not on my own.

Wemshie, welcome to the forum! Caution though because you cannot go to Africa just once. It is highly addictive!

Hello Wemshie,

Cheers,

Hello Wemshie, welcome to AH and welcome to Africa when you come. You are probably all kitted out for the smaller PG, but if you dont have a larger rifle for the larger stuff your outfitter could lend you one. Do you have any ambitions for a buffalo? I live in Zimbabwe, visit the UK quite often, mostly London and Scotland.
 
Good morning from the UK Somerset contingent.

As mentioned, Africa is addictive and all this damned website does is make you realise how much you need to go.....and then go again......and again.

You'll pick up some really useful stuff on here and help will always be offered. Do be warned though, these Americans can drive you nuts with tales of easy access to all things firearms at a time when I'm fashioning DG projectiles from knapped flint lol.

It's a good site frequented by good, honest and helpful people.

I am righthanded, so not interested in the rifle, but I have a 375 RUM and 350 gr bullet loading data is very hard to come by. If you could reply with information regarding your loads I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you, Ray Boone, Leavenworth, WA

Hello - I was looking at your post from several years ago regarding the Winchester 300 H&H. Any chance you still have the lefty M70 300 H&H for sale?
Thank you, Mike

An excellent AH member right here! I had a fantastic transaction with Hornedfrogbbq (I was the seller). His communication was first rate, payment was extremely fast, and I would have absolutely no reservations at all dealing with him again. Thank you, F!
