Hello everyone.

I am UK and UAE based. I have been rifle hunting since early 90s and in that time I have been lucky to have a few hunting trips to Africa under my belt, mostly in Zim, but Moz and Namibia firmly on my radar. I have travelled around Africa quite a bit for work, mainly the unpleasant parts.

I also do a fair bit of deer stalking in the UK: Red, Sika, Fallow, Roe, and Muntjac. Around 75-100 animals/ p.a. as work allows.
I shoot a 6.5x55, 7x57, 9.3x62, and a 375H&H, and I reload for all these.

Also a keen flyfisher, foodie, and classic car enthusiast.

Looking forward to increasing my knowledge and contributing from time to time.

Welcome from another uk member.
Nice choice of calibres.

What classic cars have you had or have?
I sold my mk2 golf GTI (modern classic) a few years ago and I'm getting the feeling it may be done for another.

Hello
I currently have a 1970 MGB in British Racing Green. It is a joy to drive, despite the British weather.

Hello,

Am I reading your post correctly to say that the Tsavo rifle will be coming out with a composite stock later this year? I ask because I had been looking very hard for a Tsavo, but if there is going to be a composite stock model I will wait for that.

Thank you for your time,

Andrew

Saw your post. Nice. Denver too. Genesee area (just off 70) if ever up this way. Alternatively, do you have a membership at GGC? Whatever, you'll have a wonderful time in Africa. Enjoy.
