  1. Hi

    No i haven`t taken it any further. What with the Covid restrictions etc. Still not sure about a trip next year. I had a flight booked with SAA for this year and have had no feedback whatsoever from them regarding refund or anything really.

    Will get back to this when travel restrictions and weather more suitable perhaps we can exchange info further.

    Thanks Simon and give Andy my regards.

  2. Hi Srvet

    Thanks for the info. My rifle has a 24" barrel its a Winchester Safari Express. According to the Barnes load data my load using Reloader 15 seems to be giving better speeds from a load that is several grains away from max.

    Up to now I have only tried the rifle in practice and on paper. SA trip is off this year and given the right circumstances I may use it to cull the odd deer locally.

    Obliged

     

  3. Could somebody please help with a Quickload calculation to give me an idea of starting and max loads with below components.

    Cartridge .375 H&H Magnum

    Bullet 300 Grain Barnes TXFB

    Powder Vitavourhi 150

    Primer would be CCI Large Rifle Magnum and Winchester Brass.

    Currently using RL15 but would like the alternative.

    Cheers

     

  4. Have Jackson Rifles not already disproved the need for re-proofing on end of barrel work such as shortening  -screw cutting - re-crowning.

    I know in our area a very well experienced gun-smith stopped sending such work to the proof-house.
