I'll be after sable, nyala, cape bushbuck and a fourth animal, maybe Vaal rhebuck, klipspringer, or cape kudu. Some bird hunting will happen if I take my antelope in time to go play. I'll be shooting a Kimber MT in 325 WSM with 180gr Combined Tech Silvertips and a Kreighoff drilling in 16/16/7X65R with 160gr Nosler PT. The MT will wear a Loopy 3-9 CDS, and a 1.5-6 Zeiss in Shuler mounts goes on the drilling. It's a bit newer one with plex reticle. I'm hoping a good friend here on the forum can make the trip. He's working on it. Tomorrow I start my diet and running the sand dunes and elevated ditch banks to get into shape. The East Cape has some rugged country. I feel like a kid waiting for Christmas!

My apologies for not doing a very good job of keeping in touch, I need to send you some pics of my NV Desert Sheep. Not a monster, but not bad (155). I hope you had a wonderful holiday season and the new year is treating you well! Looking forward to many wonderful pictures from your trip! Last edited by Akbob5; 01/07/17.
