I went to Africa this year and everything arrived with me except for my ammo...not too surprising, considering that I left it by the front door of my house when I left for the airport!

A quick call to my booking agent (Wendell Reich) and both the PH's with whom I would be hunting were alerted to my stupidity and had ammo waiting for me when I arrived at their respective camps. The ammo at the buffalo camp was actually the same factory load that I had sighted for and planned to bring myself (Federal Cape Shocks). Can't ask for better service than that.

Both men expressed relief that the .375's I needed were the classic H&H variety, rather than Rugers or some other oddball stuff..."newfangled nonsense" was the term used by one.
