AbeBooks has this out of print text selling for north of $400 (all the way up to over $900). Amazon has the same selling for north of $900. I'm willing to let this copy (in good condition) go for $350. If you're an M98 fanatic, this is a must have.

I'm considering buying a Winchester M70 in .375 H&H, new make (unless a desirable used one is available when ready...haven't got the funds just yet but am hoping to be in a position to purchase in a month or so). Who among you has such a rifle, be it in .375, .416 or .458? Any regrets? Any...

Like throwing red meat into a tank full of piranhas! https://www.proxibid.com/Sabatti-Model-92-Deluxe-Safari-Double-Rifle-In-500-Nitro-Express-Unfired-SN-CAB0054-This-is-the/lotInformation/47051935 Yeah, I know, it's a Sabatti but, should the rifle go for something in the 3-5 thousand dollar...

At 1:10, the mother of all flinches. At 1:35, someone that looks familiar. Nice little video (theirs on barrel regulation is also nice and has one of the best explanations of the why I’ve seen/heard/read).

Tough as nails and, in camo, rare as hen’s teeth. $200, firm (shipped to the lower 48, UPS Ground). Please PM if interested. Thank you.

While searching for a copy of the 1994 Remington Arms catalogue, I came across this: http://cartridgecollectors.org/ammunition-catalogs/Remington Enjoy (those among you who are into such things).

A question to any and all – do you have a Ruger RSM which has been converted to .505 Gibbs? If so, can you send a few images of the feed rails, ramp and follower? I’m going to be doing the same later this year and was wanting to see how a few others have addressed these aspects. Based upon some...

Not the prettiest, but damn serviceable: The guy is my favorite YouTube personality. I could spend all day watching his videos. It reminds me of my life growing up on the farm...hunting, shooting, trapping, chopping wood, caring for crops, caring for livestock, fixing up old stuff and making do.

It looks to have had a bit of a rough life, and I’ve no idea as to the condition of the bore, but at 950 GBP it’s definitely worth a look! https://instagram.com/p/BglvThJBa44/

I’m pretty knowledgable when it comes to such things but have to admit that I’m stumped by the muzzles of a Heym. I’ve seen two such examples, the business end with no evidence of a regulating wedge of any sort, just two muzzles, the inner surface filed for close contact. The picture below is a...

I have for sale a Ruger Guide Gun in .416 Ruger. Included are: • Ruger Guide Gun in .416 Ruger • Approximately 10 rounds of Hornady ammo (soft and solid) • 100 Nosler 400 grain Partition bullets • 50 Hornady 400 grain solid bullets (DGS) • 50 Hornady cases (new) • Approximately 30 Hornady cases...

I'm not sure where this one will finish but the seller has set a CRAZY LOW minimum! http://www.gunbroker.com/item/706815029

So, as it turns out my friend cannot manage the recoil, either. He hasn’t a bum, post-operative shoulder as I do, he simply doesn’t like the recoil (he always dreamt of a true elephant rifle but up until now the most powerful rifle he has ever owned (and maybe even shot) has been a .270...

The rifle isn't exactly my style (I prefer a more modest approach), but you've got to admit, she's one hell of a piece of work!!! https://www.theexplora.com/westley-richards-600-exhibition-sidelock-double-rifle/

I've decided to sell a couple of rifles to save up for a double rifle. The question is, how does one go about selling a rifle online (shipping, FFL transfer, etc.)?

Below is a list of the rifles and handguns I have owned and shot and hunted with, over the years. Those in red I still own, all the others have passed on to another. Marlin/Glenfield Model 60, .22 long rifle Ruger Ranch Rifle (first gen.), .223 Remington Winchester Model 94 Carbine, .44 Magnum...

Rest your eyes upon this lovely example of the gunmaker's art: https://www.theexplora.com/fabulous-webley-scott-600-sidelock-double-rifle/ It is said that such carictatures, with regard to fauna, were due to the engraver having precious little to go on in the way of information (no...

This is something that, to me, appears to be wholly unique to Africa. Here in the States, it’s never seen. The same seems to be true of Europe. My assumption is that it's origination, as a common practice, is due to the weight of large bore rifles, that the easiest way to manage such mass over...

So, I picked up a gently used Ruger RSM in 458 Lott a week or so ago. I got the lovely rifle for $1400 on Guns International. The seller told me that the market is soft and the moment, that it's been hard to move the big boomers, hence the price (he then went on to tell me that the market for...

check it out! https://www.theexplora.com/thomas-horsley-percussion-howdah-rifle/ A quick-detachable scope, with a damascus tube? Damn!!

Here’s an interesting article in which Bell speaks rather fondly of mono-metal solids. I wasn’t aware of any having existed in his day. Granted, this is after his storied career as an ivory hunter, but he was able to gain some experience with the projectiles. See attached pdf file: Small Bores...

Strictly speaking, not an item of taxidermy, but interesting...

I am interested in comments/perspectives from those on the ground, those in the field who have direct experience with regard to the matter (PH's, outfitters, game department staff, well-traveled hunters, etc.). http://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-36176756 Thank you.

To any who may be interested, here is a killer deal on a lovely CZ 550 in 458 Lott. http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.aspx?Item=551821582 As you can see, she's a lovely stock (with cross-bolts) and an aftermarket trigger (for those of you who, like me, don't really care for CZ's...

For the money, you will NOT find a better rifle than this: http://www.gunsinternational.com/guns-for-sale-online/rifles/alexander-henry-rifles/alex-henry-double-rifle-in-excellent-condition-with-excellent-rifling-.cfm?gun_id=100638103 This is easily ten times the rifle the price suggests, its...

For some reason or another (most likely due its to sheer size, and thoughtful design), the 505 Gibbs has found a place in my heart. Those of you who have experience with the cartridge, loading and/or hunting, what's your take? Thank you.

I believe that the 30-06, that brainchild of the great John Moses Browning (he is not credited, but is in there, somehow, no question, for the design is as indicative of he as a person as is one's personal signature) is the greatest cartridge ever developed. Thoughts, opinions, experiences, please.

My favorite, of everything (except perhaps caliber). Jones underlever, Beesley self-opening action, Purdey rose and scroll, luscious wood, 1902 vintage, etc. For the money, it's an incredible rifle (at any price it's an incredible rifle, but at $38,500, in my mind, it is an absolute steal)...

The video is very basic (single test medium (homogenous/monolithic), one shot from each rifle, one bullet type/weight, etc.), but it is telling in that each penetrated to the same depth (the classic calibers each performing to the same level...adequate penetration, from which point one chooses a...

The only CZ I'd even consider (stock and all, after having been sent to AHR for a new trigger, bolt handle, 3-position safety, and bolt shroud, of course). Would probably knock her down to 23" barrel, too, and add a NEGC front sight. http://www.realguns.com/archives/175.htm...

This is the ideal role I see for the 416 Ruger...a modern version of the justly famous and lauded 450/400 NE (rather than a direct replacement for the 416 Rigby or Rem Mag). The ballistics are right in there, even with a 20" barrel. Load to 2,150-2,200 (maybe 2,250) with a 400 grain bullet, and...

I've mentioned this elsewhere, in passing, in other threads, but wanted to offer up the thought here, for discussion. In my opinion, the 375 Ruger is the finest cartridge to hit the market since the 338 Win Mag. All the way around, it is a very solid chambering, superior to anything else in the...

Well, after an enormous amount of consideration, I've decided that my next rifle is going to be a Model 70 (of new manufacture) in 416 Remington Magnum. For a while I was sweet on the 416 Ruger, but it comes up just a bit shy on case capacity (enough, perhaps, but barely). Then I was hot on the...

Guys, I am struggling to see how the CZ action can reliably house the 505 Gibbs. To my mind, the bolt diameter is just not there. How does the head support the cartridge? What exists opposite the extractor, seeing how the lug is not extended (such as with the RSM bolt head)? Does anybody have a...
