A good friend of mine is currently in the us and just shot a pretty nice whitetail buck. It's his first kill ever and I know it's a non issue on the Swedish side of things if he brings the boiled skull back home in his suitcase to have it mounted. I am however not sure at all about how that...

I'm looking to sell a Nikon Monarch 3 1-4x20 to a forum member but have no idea what a fair price would be since I haven't found any used for sale online. I have the box and flip up covers etc and the condition is near new except some minor scratches from rings. What would a fair price for this...

In a couple weeks I'll finally receive the 223 I've been waiting for for almost a year and this is a completely new caliber for me when it comes to hunting and reloading. I'll mainly hunt roedeer with it so I don't wan't some varmint fragmentation greande bullet and it needs to stabilise with...

I found this gun for sale here in Sweden for roughly 400 usd. It's only listed as an "Oberndorf bolt action" and looks pretty reminiscent of some factory sporters I've seen but I'm also far from an expert in this field. Is it actually one or just made by some gunsmith? Unfortunately this is the...

Please note that the following rifle is in Sweden but I am willing to export it as long as the buyer pays for shipping/permits. The rifle is also LISTED ELSEWHERE on Swedish pages but the market for this type of rifle is understandibly quite small here so the interest has been very low. I am...

My dad enjoyed Africa more than expected during our safari in South Africa recently so now he wants to see more. He would like to see the nature in Namibia and the Victoria falls but the planning is still in its earlier stages so I´m very much open to suggestions about what to see in Namibia...

Hello, I am considering selling my Brno 602 in 458 Lott and help my friend sell his Cz 550 in 416 Rigby. We live in Sweden where the market for such rifles is tiny so I am open to sending them to other EU countries but I need to know a fair price in euros for them. My Brno is made in 1990 so...

I have used the 180 gr Norma Oryx extensively in my 308 including on my so far only hunting safari in Africa and am extremely happy with their performance on a wide variety of game up to tiny european moose and wildebeest and zebra. They make the same bullet in 286 and 325 gr for the 9.3 and 300...

Ever since I got into hunting at a very young age I´ve dreamt about some day going on a hunting trip in Africa. I thought that this would remain just a dream for a very long time but a couple of years ago I found this forum by chance and the dream seemed more and more feasible way sooner than I...

As the title says I would like to buy a set of wood furniture for my L1A1 fal. I´ve looked all over the internet but haven´t found a seller that wants to ship it to me here in Sweden. If anyone here has a complete set or just some pieces and would be willing to send them to Sweden I will gladly...

I've found a pre-64 model 70 in 375 hh for sale. The barrel has been shortened to 52cm (20.5in) and fitted with recknagel sights and a slingmount. The receiver is fitted with what looks like recknagel swing mounts as well and the stock is glass bedded. Other than that everything looks to be oem...

I will go on my first hunting safari ever in April and will mainly hunt cull animals but I would like to bring home one trophy to remember my trip. I am however on a somewhat tight budget and the cost of preparing and shipping the trophy, most likely a euro mounted Impala, to me here in Sweden...

I´ve decided to go on my first safari which will take place in the Limpopo province of SA in late April. Since I live and hunt in Sweden I don´t own any boots that are appropriate for this climate so I need some recomendations from all the knowledgeble people here. I want something with a high...

I am looking for a hunt to take place sometime before August 2024 when I will start studying at university. I would like to spend around 3.5k usd on the hunt itself (excluding tips, taxidermy, flights etc.) and for that amount i want to hunt as many different species as possible and preferably...

I live in Sweden and have access to a smaller variety of bullets than the Americans have. I have found some very specific bullets, with no equivalent to be found in the EU, that are made and sold by an American company. A friend of mine that's a US citizen, if that matters, will be visiting...

I´ll start this thread by prefacing that this rifle is my first big bore and it´s my first time reloading a straight-walled caliber. The rifle is a Brno 602 rechambered to 458 Lott from a 458 Win Mag. I recently made some very weak handloads (400 gr @ 500 ms) with cheap H&N bullets and N32C...

I will start with a bit of context. I am 18 years old and was born in Sweden where I still live. I have always loved hunting and has had a deep fascination with Africa ever since i visited Tanzania for a photo safari when I was 6. In June I will be finished with the equivalent of high school and...

If anyone who lives in the EU has some 458 Lott brass that they'd like to sell I'd be interested. I need to feed my Brno 602 but I'm still in school so the budget isn't infinite.
