Daarenteen lewer die tweede - - kritiek nie. - werklikwaar jagters terug wat lang e-posse met klagtes jaarliks. - Jare gelede was biltongjag die enigste manier om Medejagter (Brief verkort Redakteur) 9.3x57? E met inligting oor waar ek meer oor hierdie kaliber kan Die hulp sal waardeer word. Chris Schutte Die skrywer Cleve Cheney antwoord: Die 9.3x57 mm Mauser is die eerste keer in 1900 in Swede ingebring. Mauser het n reeks jagpatrone ontwikkel, gebaseer op die 8x57 mm Mauser-dop. Die 9,3x57 mmpatroon was een van hierdie familie patrone en is ontwerp vir groot Afrika-wild (uitgeslote dié met dik velle en buffel) dus wildsbokke, kameelperd, luiperd en leeu. Dit is n 8x75 wat oopgemaak is vir koeëls. Die patroon het n uitstekende reputasie ontwikkel en is steeds gewild onder Europese jagters wat Afrika toe kom hoewel daar geen vervaardigers van hierdie geweerkaliber meer is nie.

10 J du P Bothma Tragelaphus scriptus sylvaticus The bushbuck has the widest geographic distribution of the spiral-horned antelope in Africa. It has an acute sense of hearing, sight and smell and will keep close to baboons to benefit from their alarm calls. They are also excellent swimmers that can rapidly cover a distance of 3 km. 10 GAME & HUNT APRIL 2017
