Just returned from Africa

Thanks to all of guys for the last couple of years. I have been reading about all of your trips and finally saved my pennies and went.

Your Kudu photo is Great. Cograts on your first trip over. Now that your feet are wet I am sure your hooked.

Congrats! What were the two rifles and calibers you used?

I shot the kudu with a 300 Win Mag and 200 grain Nosler Partitions. The rifle was a Sako/Tikka.

The impala and gemsbuck I shot with a 338 Win Mag and 225 grain Nosler partitions. The rifle was a Winchester 70 supergrade.

Sniper: Thanks for sharing. Really like your gemsbok. The pup is icing on the cake, as I am a dog fan.

Sniper, looks like you had a great hunt. Been thinking about calling you, but didn't know if you were back yet. Did you load the 200 Nosler Partitions for the 300 Win Mag? If you did, what is the recipe? Just 6 more months and I'm on my way to Namibia.

I see you took a little bit of Natasha with you on your chin. She give you that as a going away present?

Just kidding buddy!
