I buy as many as I can afford when they become available, I am short on 375 300gr A-Frames though. I will have to buy a few boxes the next time they are available.

I hunted with Brandon on the BonaBona property, it's a great place that the wife and truly enjoyed. Brandon is a great PH and I will be hunting with him again in 2026. Here's a picture of the Buffalo I took on the BonaBona property.

No I don't, but it comes up if you search youtube for Tsala Safaris.

I think I saw the video on YouTube, did you hunt at the BonaBona camp?

I may have to give him a call, thanks for the information.

Who is making the quarter rib for you?

I guess the biggest reason I don't want to do a 458 win mag or 458 lot is because I like oddball calibers. I already have 10 boxes of Swift .474 cal 500 grain A-Frames and 3 boxes of Hornady 500 DGX's. I've also been told the 470 Capstick at 2250-2300fps will have less recoil then a similarly...

I guess I should add that I'm going to have the barrel cut at 23 inches, I'm not looking to push the throttle on this rifle. What i want to do is get about 2250fps, essentially having a rifle that slightly betters my 470 nitro that I can use with optics!

I have talked to Pacnor and I am thinking of using their #5 barrel contour. I also talked to Kevin Weaver again and he told me he doesn't care for the molded in colors with the McMillan stock. He says they tend to chip when inletting the stock and then they just don't turn out as nice as he...

I will keep what you said in my mind. I have already chosen a gunsmith to do the work, I've talked to Kevin Weaver and he has agreed to do the project!

I already called McMillan and they do make the stock in flat top only! I believe they said the Safari Express used the standard bottom metal, but I will check with them before placing my order.

I'm in the beginning stages of building a 470 Capstick rifle. I plan on using a new production Winchester mod 70 416 rem mag as the donor rifle, a Pacnor barrel, NECG Banded front sight, barrel ban swivel, island rear sight and McMillan safari express stock in the McMillan McWoody finish. My...

When loading for my 470 Nitro I use a RCBS 50 BMG press, I'm sure it would work great for the 505 Gibbs.

Swift 400 grain A-frame worked well for me.
