The problem I have with liberals goes far, far beyond their stance on hunting.

I've put 160k, 250k, 170k, 170k on my past four Ford Explorers with no major problems (outside of warranty) and very little "small" maintenance expenses. I'll stick with them as long as I keep having good experiences.

I've noticed a lot of new members all the sudden. The intros are all different but there are a lot of similarities too. They use the word "lurker" a lot and many reference a family member getting them interested in Africa. AI could come up with a thousand different intros in milliseconds...

I don't know how many clay rounds it takes to equal one 3" 1,550 fps steel load, but I'm still trying to wear out this 1987 Citori... This old girl has traveled a lot of mile by car, plane and boat and has never shied away from rain or the salt marshes. I have had to replace the retaining...

The one time I did it, it was straight through Atlanta to Jo'burg. I'd do it the same way again, fewer risks.

Oh, and by the way, just for the record, I am not against anyone killing a dag-blasted snake as long as it's legal and legally done with no risk to others. There is biblical support for my feelings on this... I'm completely okay with a good head bruising... In practical applications, I...

Sorry for being crude but I call this the Steve Irwin effect. It was happening before Steve Irwin, but he made it famous. The Steve Irwin effect is when neophytes "get in nature's face" simply for their own publicity. Wild loosely means separated from humans. Let the wild remain wild...

That's so nice of you to say. I used Canon cameras for years mostly with a 70-200mm F4L lens. But, cell phones are just as good anymore since it's mostly in the shot set-up and post processing. I used to never talk about my set-up and post processing but I'm getting old and don't care...

Take this with a grain of salt because it's coming from a Nosler fanboy but...Hornady is better at marketing than they are at making bullets...

I consider myself a digital taxidermist...

1) Quadpods instead of shooting sticks or tripods. It's really neat to see African trackers work their magic, but don't spend a day-and-a-half chasing a wounded zebra that should already be in the salt, 2) Have three lists that are within your budget 1) The Must List - the animals you would be...

I'm a birder and still prefer the 8x binoculars. The 10x magnifies hand shake too so I find that I can pick out more detail with a good 8x than I can with an equal quality 10x. Detail on a bird is whether a tree-top warbler has one or two wing bars or if the maxillary is the same color as the...

Thank you both for the reminder about how precious (and precarious) our freedoms are and how hard they are go get back after letting them slip away. For US Americans, the reminder is that government officials that want to take away the 2nd Amendment are the singular justification for why the...

I've been thinking about this for years. I had a dream when I was 5 that wolves surrounded my bed and "iced" my throat so I couldn't call out for help. I've wanted to get even with them ever since...

@One Day... if you're still around, that's exactly the way I understand it. I don't have personal experience with regulation on a SxS rifle but an O/U definitely has a different trajectory from the under barrel than it does from the over barrel. It's not a yawing effect, though because both...
