The old Remington made clones of the Browning A5 were also pretty first class.

I personally consider hunting hippopotamus on land (esp. in the sugarcane fields at night) to be the second most exciting form of dangerous game hunting that all of Africa has to offer (first being hunting truly wild lion). A hippopotamus is most dangerous when you’re standing between him and...

.416 Remington Magnum has slightly more recoil. So if you practice with that, you're good to go with the .375 Holland & Holland Magnum.

I would happily use it on bushbuck, impala & bush pig. Esp. with the 170Gr Winchester Super X flat nosed soft point. But I would not touch it for dangerous game.

Heartiest welcome. I think you'll fit right in.

Now that you mention it... I haven't actually ever seen a pre World War II British boxlock double rifle which WASN'T built on a Webley & Scott action. The upmarket ones used the PHV-1 action, while the more budget makers used the Screw Grip action. Unfortunately, Webley & Scott discontinued the...

Walking/tracking safaris are my favorite kind because they feel like how a real hunt is supposed to be. Furthest we ever had to track would be 25 miles perhaps, over a course of three days. In my opinion, the best tracking safaris for Cape buffalo are to be had in Tanzania. On the subject of...

Blaming a gun company because some sick kid used one of their products to blow away little children, is literally the same as blaming Mc Donald’s for every single person that dies of heart problems. Or Ben & Jerry’s for every person that contracts diabetes. They should be looking into doing...

Heartiest welcome, Ma’am. You’ll fit right in.
