    Anyone had issue with firearms pre-approval for Qatar flights booked with American miles?

    My coworker had the same issue this year using miles. Qatar denied him and he elected to rent a firearm instead of buy flights through Qatar.

    Travel to Namibia

    Both times I’ve been I went through Frankfurt. It’s easy to get guns through from Germany to Namibia as well. It’s about 26 hours travel if you time it well, and both flights are much easier than the 14 hours to Jberg if you buy the cheap seats like I do . The last trip I actually planned a...

    35 Whelen with 250 gr Norma Oryx

    Nosler shows the top accuracy for all their tested powders under 250gr bullets as 55.0gr (max) of Varget. My Hornady manual does not list Varget in their data, and I’ve never shot the 250 rn, but they recommend a seating depth of 3.290 to the middle of the cannelure. Hodgdon has load data for...
