Suggestions for selecting your rifle and bulletsOmatako Hunting Trails

Here follows a few suggestions for the first time African hunter on selecting a suitable caliber: The average shooting distance while hunting with us will be between 100 to 150 yards, so rather go for a slower bigger caliber rifle. Any 30 cal and bigger performs very well on the game one is likely to encounter. Omatako Hunting TrailsRecommended calibers will be 30.06 / .300 Win Mag / .338 Win Mag / .375 H&H.

If you have an eland on your which list we recommend .338 or .375 Rifle.

Almost more important than your Caliber will be the Omatako Hunting Trailsbullets which you will be using. African game is known to be very cautious, but shooting distances will not be long, although small branches and foliage may present some challenge, which is why we recommend using a heavier bullet - We recommend at least 180gr of premium core bonded bullets like trophy bond bear claw or monolithic bullets like Barnes triple shock.

Please, if you don’t have a rifle, you don’t need to go out and buy one. Omatako Ranch has various rifles available for rent.

By law it’s not allowed to bring any handguns, gross bows, automatic or semi automatic weapons into Namibia.
