I was enjoying dining in camp today with my Boker knife and fork set. Argentinan steel, stag handles, with a neat little sheath than holds them both. Any one know how to rate the Argentine steel by Boker?

I have heard stellar reports of the 7mm PRC--you made a great choice in terms of performance. I just hope that you and a BUNCH of other hunters make it popular enough to bring the cost of ammo down, lol. Tell us about what you slay with it!

The answer for me is YES! Background: For a long time I have been satisfied with an adjustable bi-pod, but I always used it from a seated position which gave support from more than one direction. If it was good enough for Larry Weishun, it was good enough for me. And I made a couple of 250 yard...

Not if I could book elsewhere and do better. When a hunter is lucky enough to stalk an outstanding specimen, then his joy should not be stolen by a sliding scale. They don't scale down very much for lesser trophies, you can bet. Many records have been set unexpectedly in places not known for top...

Love that handle, too! Great thread, Kevin

Well, as the OP, let me say this with certainty--IF I ever shoot a leopard with buckshot, I would choose tungsten. To say otherwise is just to say that you will never use buckshot on a leopard at all, IMO.

I really enjoy quality in guns, wood, and leather, in that order. I want good natural leather--not the coated stuff that looks like leather grain, but is actually glorified paint masquerading as stain. I like highly figured wood on firearms, and good carving in furniture. I adore quality...

Cape buffalo charge from where it retreated to heavy cover after the first shot. It charged with an angry friend along for the ride. Cracking timber, but could not see them yet. We think the "friend" lost interest and turned, but they both turned and went further into cover to wait. Got dark as...

I think Selous was the one...ONLY a 4 bore!

Well, how about the Mother-in-law's picture?....

Or, when I even remember....

BTW, I seriously thought this was going to be a thread about vehicles out in the bush, lol.

Some early explorer shot one...can't remember who offhand, but the recoil was so bad it gave him headaches and almost shattered his nerve, as I recall. BTW, just how HEAVY would that little baby probably weigh in?....I've seen 4 bores run to 16 pounds!

Well, they did take me out to shoot it first. Then after shooting at 50 yds, had me shoot at 100yds and in the middle of it asked if I needed to take a break due to recoil. I told them, no, I was fine--which was true. It wasn't that much different than sighting in for 12 ga. slugs, I thought at...

Might have been the greatest last game of the World Series EVER. Sure enjoyed it. Someone has to win, someone's got to lose. No hard feelings, Canada, you did yourself proud.
