Where you headed? I'll be with @Limcroma Safaris from the 21st to the 28th.

Another vote for Axils. I have 2 pair, and I ordered a pair each for both of my sons. They come with something like a dozen pair of inserts - 3 different styles in 3 or 4 different sizes. One of them will fit your ear holes. They're like the inserts you get when you buy earbuds for your cell...

Holy cow that's one hell of a deal. I'm already booked for this year and next. :E Sad: This is the kind of hunt for which I bought my 404J. I only want a "character" bull. Something with horns like or similar to this old warrior.

I've never used North Forks myself, but a lot of guys on this forum have, and they're very well liked. Reading between the lines and looking at pictures of recovered bullets, I'd guess they rank right up there with A Frame and TSX in controlled expansion and weight retention. Given the design...

Reloading International has 400 gr North Forks in Stock https://www.reloadinginternational.com/product-detail/?id=24624 Hammer also has 416s in stock https://hammerbullets.com/product-tag/416/

We're supposed to be staying in 3 Rivers on our upcoming hunt this August. I can let you know the weekend I get back.

No idea what the current street value is, but when I was a patrolman 30 years ago, street value for a kilo of heroin was about 100K USD; booger sugar was around 20K USD per kilo

I measured the mag, as nearly as I can measure, it's around 3.39 or maybe 3.4, certainly longer than I can seat the bullets. muledeer recommends seating the bullets to where they'll just fit the mag, then fill the case with powder - as I recall, he goes to about 64 or 64.5 gr of Big Game for...

Maybe someone has covered this in the prior 10 pages and I missed it... One of the things I finally learned about my 9.3x62, and indeed seems to be quite common in rifles chambered for it, they have a REALLY long leade. I have 2 of these rifles, one a Zastava and the other a JP Sauer (actually...

Another bullet you guys might consider is Hammer Bullets Shock Hammer 400 gr. I've corresponded with Steve Davis from Hammer pretty extensively on LD for this bullet. When the time comes for serious LD for my 404, I'll be shooting Hammers vs North Forks.

While I don't believe they advertise here, Hunters Hill Safaris is about 55K contiguous acres located a bit northwest of East London.

Other than knowing where Newsome's skeletons are buried, Harris doesn't stand a chance. Much as I despise Newsome, he's formidable and would crush Harris. It wouldn't be much of a fight.

The proposed FairTax, or some facsimile of it, makes the most sense, well more than an income tax does - if for no other reason than the cost of compliance + enforcement is trivially small. That would save us all a non-trivial amount of money annually. There is no real way to game a...

The federal government doesn't have a revenue problem, it has a spending problem. Figuring out a way to tax the "underground economy" doesn't solve the problem, won't even make a dent in the problem. Our legislators and executives have been reckless for decades.
