Thanks TJ:
Africa was a dream come true for me. Always wanted to go and finally just stopped dreaming and went. I was surprised at how affordable it was compared to hunting North America. I'm going back next summer but a number of opportunities have fallen into my lap so I may be going to Zimbabwe sooner for Buff and Lion. I'm going to rename my African web site soon as the addy was one my wife wasn't using so she gave it to me for a temp site. There are other pics to add and a few things I want to rearrange also. Next trip I will take a video camera as still photos just don't do Africa justice. Thanks for the insight on the CZ's. I'm not going to overlook Ruger or Remington, but I'll ask some of our African guys before I buy. Sounds like the Hornady and your rifle get along better than other offerings. Maybe you can get a day with the wind not being a factor but I know how the West and the wind operate during the fall
Could your action possibly have residue on it and that's what's causing the stiff bolt? It may take a good cleaning with acetone to remove it if so. I had that problem with a new Beretta Extrema last year. Fired without problem when it was cool, but on a frosty morning it would not eject the first fired shell; and the sky was full of Snow geese
The bolt was stiff as molasses. Hope you have a great hunting season, grayghost
