I have to congratulate the Americans on their rifle building abilities. I live in South Africa and recently recieved my Sendero SFII in .300 Win Mag. I was absolutely amazed by the rifles accuracy. The first handload I fired gave a 5mm group!!! It kept all of the handloads I fired the next two...

Re: Wich bullet weight 300WM? The part of SA where I live and mostly hunt is in the Free State. The area is mostly grass savannas and flat as an pancake. Most shots are taken at 150m plus. The last 5 animals I shot were all more than 250 meters away. When I hunt in the Bushveld ( Ellisras...

Re: .25-06 Sorry Greg I did not know him, I googled him and saw he hunted quite a bit in SA. I have only met a couple of American hunters as we do not cater specifically for overseas clients. The 25-06 is not really a well known cartridge in SA. Due to the restrictive gun laws we tend to...

Re: .25-06 My cousin has a game farm here in SA and he only uses his 25-06AI on all the animals he hunts. He takes between 100 and 150 bucks a year ranging form springbuck (about 65lbs) to eland (about 1500 lbs). He kills varmints with it and uses it as his competition gun as well. He...

Re: Berger bullet performance on animals I usually shoot headshots as I hunt for rations for workers on the farm as well, the hart/lung shots i have taken were very fast clean kills, but the bergers does tend to be a bit of a meat spoiler.

Re: Berger bullet performance on animals I use the 168gr VLD's in my 30-06 and have shot a couple of animals with it. What a great bullet! It not only gives my 30-06 amazing accuracy but the terminal performance is astounding. I shot 5 Bluewildebeest about six months ago. These animals are...

Re: Practical Tactical Practice - Avoiding Group S Great shooting guys, one day when I grow up...... The most accurate rifle I have at this stage is my 22-250 with 55gr SGK. Busy working up loads for my 300 Winny Sendero. Will post as soon as the wind allows me to get to the range. Great site!

Re: Wich bullet weight 300WM? The GS custom bullets are fantastic, I know the owner Gerrard Schultz. The only "problem" with the GS is that they are moly coated. I have had terrible experiences with moly in my 22-250, and decided its not the way for me. My 22-250 shot the 40gr GS bullet @...

Re: Wich bullet weight 300WM? Nuisance animals, they kill newborn sheep, raid the orchids and take anything that isnt nailed down. The big males can kill large dogs without too much trouble and they can even kill leopards if they are in the right mood (havent seen this but heard it from a...

Re: Wich bullet weight 300WM? Actually doing quite well in SA, Dan. thank you guys for the posts so far, asked the same question in a SA forum about two weeks ago and still no answer. Will try to get my paws on some 210grainers and load them up as well. Wont use the winny on game untill...

Hi guys, I have seen this question another thread so sorry to repeat it but the answers werent that clear. I live in South-Africa so our choices in rifles arent that great, sort of take what you get. I've just recieved my 300Winny Remington Sendero SFII with a 1:10twist 26inch barrel...
