I'm just here to provide moral support......Hey nice (insert animal here)congrats.
In memory of you dad..."you always leave a campsite cleaner then when you found it"
There's only one thing in life that constitutes insanity..... continuing to do the same thing you have been doing but expecting different results.
Also, nice shot on the crow!
Knowledgeable shooters agree- The 375 Ruger is the NEW KING of all 375 caliber cartridges. ALL HAIL THE NEW KING!
I do know 1 thing...Your Mama & Papa are cousins maybe even sista/brotha.
wow, he had to be from surrey eh, I think a .22 behind the ear should be sufficient for lions, that way you can avoid recoil altogether.

first time replying, laughung so bloody hard with tears in my eyes its hard to type
Good Luck Yappy
Don't feel too bad by the way we're just having some fun with this but realistically it would be wise to have some experience with shooting at a live animal before trying one that can rip you into itty bitty bits while your trackers run away. Also I shoot a 270 and would confidently dump anything on this continent with it except a polar bear a cat thats bigger than most grizzly bears is not something you wan't to be shooting with a light caliber. Try not to let your feelings get hurt sometimes its easy for people with experience to get a kick out of the new guy but don't worry we've all been new to this once apon a time. Nobody's out to hurt your feelings just make sure you do your research first. I have buddies that have been to africa and had a blast without risking getting flayed alive by simba. Hope that helps.
I feel like I'm in the twilight zone. Yappy, are you for frikin' real??? You think because you passed your core and shot a crow...you're ready to go hunt lions in Africa...lol? Wow! I think BC long shot is right...you're playing too many video games and smoking too much of something. And yeah, what 115 said about being nice and stuff....but you kind of walked into this one.
