I just picked up a pair of Rangers for about $108 earlier this month at Safari Outdoor while heading to the airport in Joberg. So far, I've been wearing them around my property, and when I go to the horse barn with my wife and daughter. They're breaking in perfectly and are very comfortable...

Mine from earlier this month!

I've absolutely crushed some whitetail does shooting 110gr Barnes Tac-TX at about 2230ft/s with my 300BLK, and my daughter shot her first deer with it as well when she was 11. It's a great round, enjoy!

Type of bullet - Hammer Hunter 174 gr Bullet speed - 3200 ft/s Distance of shot - 225-359 yards (can't be sure which of 2 bullets was recovered) Original weight - 174 gr Recovered weight - 95.9 gr Calibre - .300 WM w/ 1-9 twist Species - Sable Shot placement - broadside, very slight quartering...

Even though my bow stalking didn't result in animals down, I enjoyed it and learned along the way. As much water as there was around, it was a bit questionable how productive waterhole hides would have been, and I didn't want to sit in them for five days anyway. Henry was great about it and...

What an adventure - it actually reminds me of some of the challenges I've read about back in the days of Bell and the like, having to negotiate with tribes and kings, etc. for passage and hunting permission... Thanks for the report!

I think he'd possibly trying to work out another time to go on his own, but we'll see. Thanks!

I hadn't necessarily planned on an Africa trip this year, but last summer I was drawn in by @HENRY GRIFFITHS SAFARIS's sable deal posted here on the forums. A friend and I who had hunted together in Namibia in 2022 discussed it and we decided to go for it. We put it out in our friends text group...

It was a great week. Thanks again, Henry!

I just cleared my rifle inbound through Newark this morning, and since there was a several minute wait between the United staff taking me from CBP to recheck my rifle, I asked the CBP officer about suppressors. He said he hadn't seen one in a while, but also acknowledged the African hunting...

50th Annversary Seamaster GMT for today's hunt!

I'm using SSI for an upcoming trip at the end of this month. After speaking with Wyatt for a bit on the phone, I was sold on giving them a shot this trip.

We hunted with Kowas in 2022 and are planning to hunt with them again in the future. We have a wonderful experience with them!

I really like and, at some point, would like to get one of the current Air Kiings with the green second hand. I think they're underrated.

This is the method I use as well. I mix a couple gallons and soak my clothing, then drip dry. I've been told that permethrin in the liquid form is toxic to cats and may kill them, so store it accordingly. That said, we use it on our dogs at our property well, and it really helps with seed ticks...

I was just doing some dry fire and set-up practice with my new set of 4 Stable Sticks. I agree that with a little more practice with them you probably won't need a strap, as they since they don't fall far apart on their own. Similar sticks that I've seen that did have straps seemed to have a...

I shot this KS buck 3 weekends ago with my bow, using 125gr Kudupoints at 13 yards. He went down within 60 yards. The bigger news is my daughter (12), who shot her first doe last year with my 300BLK, and declared that she wanted to get a buck this year.. I told her that she'd probably have to...

Received my bottom metal today. Dneaster3 made it a very easy transaction!

I'll take the bottom metal. PMing now.

I love my Cooper. This is a beautiful rifle!

I have a Stowa Flieger as well and love it - I have the 40mm stainless case. I occasionally see them out and about, but not very frequently.

A Maasai tribe protesting regarding their grazing rights near Tsavo West, by bobbing traffic on the road between Amboselli and Tsavo - we were there for 3 hours waiting for the Tsavo game warden to come speak to the chief. It would have taken 5ish hours to go back and around via another route...

Namibia Safari Services, shipping on Ethiopian.

I just received an email this morning that my trophies will be transferred to the airline tomorrow!

I left mine with Trophaendienste in Windhoek last year, in their vault, when we went to a private game reserve following our hunt. We then picked it up on the way back to the airport.

CRIES of the Savanna

I have a pair of rear facing lights on the back of my Ranger, and love them for field dressing and loading deer in the dark.

Thanks for the recommendation, I'll give them a shout!

Yep, that's it. I get that any decent gunsmith can remove a barrel, I'm just looking for recommendations in the area.

I've ordered a new barrel for my Weatherby Vanguard (300WM), utilizing a Howage nut system. I'd like to avoid sending my barreled action in, if possible, and have my stock barrel removed locally. Does anyone here have a recommendation to remove my stock barrel in the Kansas City area?

This. 100% As a bowhunter you must have a thorough understanding of your limitations with your equipment, and the discipline to not take shots outside of you and your equipment's abilities. I think a lot of the perceived issues concerning bowhunting vs rifle hunting come from a place of...
