[QUOTE="Uboatrobert, post: 1752631, member: 82932"] I went to S Africa in May 2015 w/ a Ruger 77 in 30-06; 35 hand loads of 165 Nos BT's and 15 Berger 168 VLD. Both shot @ 1 3/4" high & within 1/8 inch of each other @ 100. My Kudu was uphill at 30 degree +/-, moving slowly away @ 195 yards and harvested w/1 shot of 165 BT. He walked 15 yards and dropped. Estimated weight was 650 #, and took 7 men to bring it down the hill. I received a full head mount and was well worth it. (Picture available). Due to the ever changing laws here and in Africa, I highly recommend you hire a PH early, and a Company to handle plane reservations and do all paperwork for entry into Africa. You can contact me @ [email]uboatrobert@yahoo.com[/email] We started 9 months in advance. Dan't forget US Customs for rifle and ammo. Tonto 40 [/QUOTE]
