Have done 3 leopard hunts of 3 weeks each. First two were in Zim (Matetsi and Chirisa) and never got a shot.
Third hunt was in Namibia with Dirk DeBod. Got my leopard on the first day during daylight in the late afternoon.
My advice is to go somewhere where you can legally hunt after dark. Pre-baiting is good.
I shot my leopard with a .338 Win, but a .30/06 with a 180 grain Nosler Partition is all you need. A scope with an illuminated reticle is a plus.
Very intense, technical hunt. I envy you!
Good hunting!
P.S. Shot a 57" kudu on the same hunt.
