I`m so tired of cold weather - taht I have decided to travel to South Africa next week. I will cull impala. My TC`s "have been hiding" for a long time now - because I "found out" that a TC was more or less a rifle (some years ago) - and therefor I have used my revolvers. This time - I will shoot at long distances - so the rifle in 30-30  will be loaded with Nosler 150 gr. BT and Hornady SST 150 gr.A single-horned waterbuck who is going in the same area - has also my name  - written on his shoulder | ||

Finally I got home to winter and snow When I got into SA - it was not a cullhunt I should do - but a hunt after bad genetically impala - and the horns was high as trophies. And I can assure you - that this type of hunt not is simple. I shot 10 impala with Hornady SST 150 gr. and 3 impala with Nosler BT 150 gr. Nobody ran more than 60-70 yds. – if they didn`t fall down where they stood. Shootingdistances was 80-160 yds. I also shot one Nyala at 90 yds – and it ran 50 yds. Also a Waterbuck “met” the SST at 120 yds – and ran about the same distance. I borrowed a Ruger Blackhawk with open sights - which colours were silver  – but they worked  The warthog was shot through the heart at 30 yds – and jumped higher than a springbuck. Runningdistance: 10 yds. Within this huntingyear - I have used my RSH 44 Mag, FA 454 and my TC in 30-30, with 33 good placed shots. And that amount of animals without a bad shot - is the first time for me. Maybe I shall do as athleticstars do? Finish the "game" when I`m on top | |||

Thanks! In the area it was two Nyala and one Waterbuck - with one horn - which the owner wanted to take out. The one-horned males - do more damage than the twohorned when the bulls are fighting. As you can see - I found two of them | |||
