Hi all

I have a few days off, sitting in a nice air-conditioned room, and sorting out my brochures for the 2017 show season. In the process I had to sort through this year's photos, to pick which ones makes it to the brochure, banner and upgraded website (should launch 1 December 2016).

This got me thinking that you guys may also enjoy some of these photos, so here it is...
I may upload a few more later on, as I have not sorted through all yet, and we still have 2 elephant hunts and a few buffalo hunts coming up shortly (Actually from the coming week.)
In the mean time, hope you enjoy these, and sorry that I had to crop some pics so severe to hide the hunters identities.

Unique photo... I have never seen a leopard drop like that in a tree. Normally they fall to the ground, I assume that small little branch snagged it and kept it in the tree

Looks like a good season with lots of dangerous game. Congrats to all the hunters and thanks for sharing!
 
Looks amazing. I can't wait to be there in a few months!
 
Very nice..
 
Several of those buffalo were some seriously grizzled old warriors!

Hi Roklok
I read your post on Caprivi. Congratulations.
I plan to hunt there for buff in 2026 oct.
How was the land, very dry ? But à lot of buffs ?
Thank you / merci

Chopped up the whole thing as I kept hitting the 240 character limit...
Found out the trigger word in the end... It was muzzle or velocity. dropped them and it posted.:)

This compares favorably to 7 Rem Mag. with less powder & recoil.

I know that this thread is more than a year old but as a new member I thought I would pass along my .280AI loading.
I am shooting F Open long range rather than hunting but here is what is working for me and I have managed a 198.14 at 800 meters.
That is for 20 shots. The 14 are X's which is a 5" circle.
