    Hi there !

    Hi guys, I am currently still a South African planning to migrate to your beautiful country.

    I am a farmer and a dedicated hunter. I was over the moon when I just find this forum.

    I shoot a custom .243 Win Mauser K98 action with a Ferlach barrel, silencer and a Meopta 3- 12 x 56 scope - mainly for night hunting shooting Black Back Jackal and Lynx. We have big problems with them attacking and killing our sheep. I load 87 gr Hornady Vmaxe at 3140 ft/s. 1/2 MOA at 200m

    I also have Howa .308 Win Varmint with a Boyds Varmint stock and silencer, Rudolph 6 -24 x 50. Shoot 155gr Hornady Amaxe on anything from Paper, Springbuck, Kudu etc.

    I was planning on selling everything but will reconsider if I can get information on taking maybe one rifle with me and all the laws etc.

    I am super excited after finding you guys !!

    Take care

    PJ

    Welcome to the forum.
    I dont think you would have any dramas bringing both of those with you, do your own research but I think you just apply for a visitors licence before you come.
    "Hunting and fishing" fucking over licenced firearms owners since ages ago.

    Welcome PJO.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms
