Africa 2.0

Hopeful, needed to par down the trip to a full week of hunting plus about 4days travel. Had planned on at least 10 days hunting. Still grateful I'm able to go. Last time I was unable to report from RSA. Perhaps that has changed.

Great shooting. 560 is some great stuff!

I’ve gotten some pretty high speeds 3100 and change at 64000 psi. According to Dr. Mikes projections. But started getting some extraction problems with the #1 at those speeds. The difference in recoil, 3000 to 3100 was surprisingly noticeable.

Nice shooting!
Best of luck on your adventure!
I look forward to hearing of it, and seeing your photos!

We hope to get to the range for a little trigger practice before our trip, as our range has been inaccessible due to snow and ice for a while.
We will be flying out of Edmonton on May 10th, and return on May 22nd. Arriving Jo'burg late May 11th and departing late May 21.
(9 days of hunting for Susan and I.
I'll be reporting on the trip a few days after I get home, as I must travel for work immediately upon my return to Canada.

Safe travels!
