Rifle Calibre & Ammunition
Overall shooting distances will vary from 50 to 250 yards, depending on the capability of our client.
When it comes to calibre, every hunter has their own opinion on what is best for different animals. As a professional hunter with over 20 years of experience and having hunted with hundreds of clients and trophies, I have discovered that a 30 calibre is the way to go. Using heavier bullets to reduce speed is important. We typically don’t shoot long distances, except when hunting down south. For a 30-06, a 180g bullet is preferable to a 150g, and for a 300 Win Mag, a 200g bullet is better than a 180g. That said, every hunter knows that shot placement is more important than the caliber itself. I have had several clients use 7mm and 270 who enjoyed excellent hunts, and I believe most hunters would agree with me.
