Got this one on day 1 of a 10 day cape buffalo hunt with PH John Sharp. This was May, 2015 in the Bubye Valley Conservancy in Zimbabwe. I had heard how tough wildebeest are, but I hit it in the right spot with a 300 win mag from about 90-100 yards and it dropped in it's tracks. A good confidence booster for me starting out my hunt and I think the PH and trackers felt good about it too.

My wife isn't a hunter. And even though she has always told me she is OK with it, I've always had doubts. Well, when she hugged the beest and said a prayer over him and thanked him I knew that she understood, even if hunting is something she will never do herself.
The picture wasn't staged, and is one of my favorites from the safari.

There were four together when I shot. Of those two I would say the one on the left.

They are beautiful animals, tough to put down and yet very good eating!

I have been using a "Personal Property" rider on my State Farm homeowner's policy to cover guns when I travel with them.
I have several firearms, but only one is worth over $20K (A Heym double rifle).
Very interested.
Would firearms be covered for damage, as well as, complete loss?
I'll can let the State Farm rider cover my watches...

trperk1, I bought the Kimber Caprivi 375 back in an earlier post. You attached a target with an impressive three rounds touching 100 yards. I took the 2x10 VX5 off and put a VX6 HD Gen 2 1x6x24 Duplex Firedot on the rifle. It's definitely a shooter curious what loads you used for the group. Loving this rifle so fun to shoot. Africa 2026 Mozambique. Buff and PG. Any info appreciated.
