Just got back from my first safari with my family. It was amazing. My daughter talked me into going. A plains game hunt has always been her dream.
We spent 14 days in South Africa with https://www.motsomi.com/
I can’t say how all the outfits operate over there but I was thoroughly impressed with their operation.
PC our ph was knowledgeable and very good company to hunt with.
My daughter got her sable and kudu she wanted. Both very nice animals. The hunt was well managed and certainly not a “canned” hunt with very large concessions.
I am afraid they have ruined me for hunting trips in the states. I hope to return next summer for a Buffalo hunt and maybe a few plains animals.
Now I need a 375h&h.

How wonderful you have a daughter who enjoys hunting and you two have these awesome memories. I was able to take 3 trips to Africa with my Dad, I'll always cherish those memories!! Good luck sorting out a buffalo hunt and a .375H&H!
 
Hello and welcome!
 
Welcome, what part of Virginia?
 
:S Welcome:
 
Welcome to AH 62flint! Glad you had a great time with your family in South Africa, some great trophies there.
 
Congratulations on your success. Have fun with finding your new rifle.
 
Northern neck, google search Tappahannock
I hunted swan a couple of times just outside of Tappahannock. I had a friend in Leesburg but has retired to coastal South Carolina. Both of my parents were born in Virginia, so I have a fond place in my heart for Virginia.
 
Welcome aboard and congrats on what looks like a great safari.
 
Welcome from another Virginia Resident! Congrats on your family safari.
 
Welcome aboard 62flint. Hunting Africa with your kid(s) is something that will stay with the two of you forever. Re. the 375 H&H, keep your eyes peeled on the AH Classified Section. They come up quite often.
 
Greetings 62flint,

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

Sooner or later, every serious hunter and many half hearted hunters will want a .375 caliber rifle.

Best Regards,
Velo Dog.

See you are from Denmark - see quite a few Danes where I stalk in Scotland - great hunters.
The Harkilia stuff works well in Africa - I have a bit for use here in UK.
I am again looking for 600 Nitro dies preferably RCBS 1 inch. The set I purchased previously are 1 1/2 inch and do not fit my die. Another member has graciously taken them off my hands. If anyone happens to have a set of 600 Nitro Dies that will fit my Rockchucker Supreme RCBS press, please shoot me a message and thanks in advance for any assistance you may have to offer!
