Part I - RSA, Plains Game Safari

Post by kragiesardar » Wed Dec 01, 2010 6:29 am

Just got back from the 10 day hunt in South Africa Kawa Zulu - Natal. Went with my two boys, aged 10 and 8. They both decided on their own to hunt. The PH had me sight in my rifle which is a Brno 601, 30 - 06 and then had them practice on silhouette of warthog and impala with his Sako Finnbear 22 - 250.

Lessons on gun safety by Clayton the PH:

Leopard spoor, was not hunting for him, maybe next time, the one in the centre:

The ammo the PH used was PMC. I used Federal TSX (has a solid copper Barnes TSX bullet) 165 grain, Also had Remington Core locked 185 grain for Zebra and Wilder Beast. Clayton told me to just use the the Barnes 165 on everything. He was right - more to follow on that and pictures of the game we shot and pictures of the hunts.

If you want to know what I paid IM me. I told her that I would post this and she did tell me she would extend the same prices to others if they referenced me as Singh.
