Soliciting thoughts on insurance considerations for a trip into Namibia’s Caprivi strip. I usually do not get insurance, but taking my teen son, I am wondering if medical/ evac coverage might be worth considering.

I'm from the great state of NSW Australia and in their wisdom the government of said state wants to limit the average licenced shooter to a limit of four calibres.
I'm not entirely sure if that includes rimfire and shotguns, for this exercise we will only limit to centre fire.
My four calibres are

22 250
30 06
9.3x62
404j

Should cover anything I want to hurt anywhere in Australia and overseas

Let the fun begin

I'm looking for some advice based on experience for those who have shot both at game, and also for those who have reloaded. I'm leaning towards the Nosler Accubonds over the Sciroccos just because they are heavier in the caliber I'm looking to reload (6.5PRC) but I'm torn between the other 2. From a design perspective it seems the Accubonds and Sciroccos will be better at longer ranges, but I dont really see a scenario where I would shoot anything beyond 400 yards, so does it matter? I had...

Tikka is quickly becoming one of my favorite rifles. On several PG hunts, I’ve used a certain T3 in .308 several times over the years in Namibia. This rifle spends many weeks per year in the field with a variety of clients. The last time I used it was two weeks ago during trip number 8. While it was once new, it now has many thousands of rounds down the tube, the stock has been beat to pieces, the scope has its share of missing paint, and the thing just keeps on shooting. Seeing it each...
