Been a member here for awhile. Life is busy so just getting around to posting an intro.

Spend my hunting time pursing deer, moose, elk and lots of small game, gearing up for the spring snow goose hunt at the moment.

Always up for something new so have learned a lot by reading through these forums for a future African trip. That's likely a few years out (again life is busy) but I like to prepare.

On that note here's a pic of some of my tools:

  1. Blaser R8 Safari with steel receiver and kickstop. Champered in 458 Lott with an Aimpoint Micro.
  2. Dakota 76 in 416 Ribgy. Topped with a Swaro Z6I EE.
  3. Winchester Model 70 Classic Stainless in 375H&H. Haven't gotten around to scoping this yet.
  4. Blaser R8 with standard aluminum receiver. Chambered in 375 H&H topped with a Swaro Z8i

Welcome to AH! Nice selection of hardware too, you're quite prepared for Africa.
 
Welkom! Seeing the battery I'd assume you've been to Africa already?
 
:S Welcome:
 
Welcome to the posting side.
 
Welcome! You have some excellent rifles and fine optics!
 
That Dakota Rigby looks like a sweetheart! Welcome from BC
 
Welcome, looks like you are all set to go
 
Good day! Welcome!
Looks like you're rigged for Africa!!

Well, Sir--you are properly geared up
 
Welcome! Glad you came on line; you have a great battery of arms!
 
Welcome, and we look forward to your participation.
 
Welcome! Let us know if you need any assistance with the rifle import permits, we would be glad to assist you with that.
 
Welcome to AH Reckoner!
 
Always glad to welcome a new member from our 51st state!



(lol--joking aside, welcome)
 
That’s the Dakota you’ve been trying to sell I assume?! I keep looking at it every week

Gents, if you book and pay your deposit before the end of this year , you can have the bigger cull package for the 2026 price! https://www.africahunting.com/threa...griffiths-safaris-starting-at-us-2-560.96285/
I am currently in Northern Cape scouting a hunting area, we will have lots of amazing hunting opportunities for 2027! I will post updated available dates soon!

Good Evening. I am very interested in you hunt for the spiral slam. March in 2028 would be fine for me

Couple of quick questions:

1) Can we add some additional species on
2) what do you want for a deposit?
3) how do you want me to sign up

I'm on whats app or email

Kurt [redacted]

have a great evening
