My guess is a big no, but wanted to ask. I have been drilling shopping and I keep coming back to the 16x16/7x57R. But a huge factor is how available shells would be overseas. Taking the rifle cartridges is no big deal, but any quantity of shotgun shells kills your weight allowance for ammo. Heck, it is kinda bleak here, but unsure how popular it still is with European hunters and thus a supply in areas that see international hunters.

Most African countries are former European colonies, and the 16a is quite popular in Europe, so you may be OK. But let folks that live there fill us in. | |||

Yes, at First Stop on www.gunsamerica.som, item 932902561. It's a JP Sauer sidelock drilling in 12x12x8mmJRS. Mark at First Stop always prices their trade and estate buys VERY well. | |||

Yes, in South Africa they are, not a huge variety and not in every shop. But some of the top English brands like Hull and Eley have distributors in South Africa. Consequently they are theoretically available in the surrounding countries. But be prepared to pay a large premium and give your outfitter sufficient time to source them for you | |||

16 guague ammo is available in Zimbabwe from various sources - gun clubs and gunstores - but it will most likely be old. Likewise the 7mms, but a lot of folks will reload for the rifle calibers. | |||

I'll ask my mate who does a lot of shotgunning .... and then report back. -- Promise me, when I die, don't let my wife sell my guns for what I told I her I paid for them. | |||
