Warties were my favorite animal to hunt, on my plains game hunt in 2008. If/when I get back to Africa, I'd like to hunt them again. Here is a pic.

I'll agree, I always like hunting them, they are always on the agenda. Haven't taken any big ones, just decent ones, like this one from Namibia.

Legistine actu quod scripsi?

Never under estimate the internet community's ability to reply to your post with their personal rant about their tangentially related, single occurrence issue.




What I have learned on AR, since 2001:
1. The proper answer to: Where is the best place in town to get a steak dinner? is…You should go to Mel's Diner and get the fried chicken.
2. Big game animals can tell the difference between .015 of an inch in diameter, 15 grains of bullet weight, and 150 fps.
3. There is a difference in the performance of two identical projectiles launched at the same velocity if they came from different cartridges.
4. While a double rifle is the perfect DGR, every 375HH bolt gun needs to be modified to carry at least 5 down.
5. While a floor plate and detachable box magazine both use a mechanical latch, only the floor plate latch is reliable. Disregard the fact that every modern military rifle uses a detachable box magazine.
6. The Remington 700 is unreliable regardless of the fact it is the basis of the USMC M40 sniper rifle for 40+ years with no changes to the receiver or extractor and is the choice of more military and law enforcement sniper units than any other rifle.
7. PF actions are not suitable for a DGR and it is irrelevant that the M1, M14, M16, & AK47 which were designed for hunting men that can shoot back are all PF actions.
8. 95 deg F in Africa is different than 95 deg F in TX or CA and that is why you must worry about ammunition temperature in Africa (even though most safaris take place in winter) but not in TX or in CA.
9. The size of a ding in a gun's finish doesn't matter, what matters is whether it’s a safe ding or not.
10. 1 in a row is a trend, 2 in a row is statistically significant, and 3 in a row is an irrefutable fact.
11. Never buy a WSM or RCM cartridge for a safari rifle or your go to rifle in the USA because if they lose your ammo you can't find replacement ammo but don't worry 280 Rem, 338-06, 35 Whelen, and all Weatherby cartridges abound in Africa and back country stores.
12. A well hit animal can run 75 yds. in the open and suddenly drop with no initial blood trail, but the one I shot from 200 yds. away that ran 10 yds. and disappeared into a thicket and was not found was lost because the bullet penciled thru. I am 100% certain of this even though I have no physical evidence.
13. A 300 Win Mag is a 500 yard elk cartridge but a 308 Win is not a 300 yard elk cartridge even though the same bullet is travelling at the same velocity at those respective distances.

Very few small animals give so much fun to hunt such as our warties....and i agree that for most of us they are always in the menu....

Have fun. Hunt them..

Juan, I used the .45-70 guide gun, exclusively on my 1st safari. I took kudu, gemsbok, blue wildebeast, zebra, blesbok, impala, and the wartie. I used the 300 gr. nosler partition bullet.

When I was in Africa in May, I didnt have a wartie on my list but I am wishing now I did..

I did, howver get set up on one that we had spooked, but go figure he walked behind the bush instead of in front of it.

Three trips to South Africa and one to Zimbabwe and I still haven't dropped the hammer on a Warthog.

In Zim my PH kept saying we could do better and on my last trip to SA, I kept saying I wanted better. We even spent the last 3 days of my 2007 trip in the Eastern Cape exclusively looking for Warties. Frowner

Hey Charl, let's here more about "Pigs Unlimited".

To bad a guy couldn't get a red river hog or a giant forrest hog without booking those expensive trips for other critters. Roll Eyes

I think it would be fun to get warties, bushpigs, red river hogs, and giant forest hog, all on 1 African trip. Pork Safari..... Big Grin
