RIFLES, AMMUNITION, & OTHER EQUIPMENT
We
recommend a rifle in caliber 300 Magnum or slightly larger, fitted
with a 6x40 scope and 80 rounds of soft point, preferably Nossler
partition ammunition. It has been our experience that very few clients
shoot well with much larger calibers. This is, however, a personal
matter and we suggest that you use whatever comfortable with. If you
are a keen wing shooter bring your favorite shotgun and approximately
80 shells in #7s. The Namibian authorities do not place any restrictions
on the temporary importation of hunting rifles, shotguns and ammunition.
You will receive a form to fill in on your arrival and the permit
will be issued at he airport.

PLEASE
NOTE: No pistols, revolvers, automatic or semi-automatic weapons
may be imported into Namibia. Please also note that ammunition may not
be transported in your rifle case. As you may be in transit through
other countries it is important to note that some laws require ammunition
to be transported in a lockable metal container. This is not a requirement
in Namibia.
Should you prefer
to travel without weapons, we have a fine selection
of quality rifles and shotguns in camp for hire.
