On 4/24/24, the greatest hunter I ever knew passed away. This was not just any hunter, he was truly gifted as an all around outdoorsman. He was my dad. As I grew up, and grew to know him as the man he was, it was not until later in life that I realized just how special he was. Sometimes...

I bought this stock receiver as part of a complete rifle. The stock is like new, other than a small scuff on the recoil pad, shown in the pictures. The rifle was unfired, and this stock also remains unfired. Comes with factory trigger guard/magazine. The color is green. These sell for $5234.00...

Factory Blaser Safari Barrel in 416 REM Mag. Length 23.5”. Includes high viz factory iron sights. I bought this barrel on a complete rifle package. It was said to be unfired. It does have a few safe marks, and a scope has been mounted on it before, but otherwise in excellent condition. See...

For Sale Rolex, Perpetual Date Women’s Watch. This is my mom’s watch that my dad received when he retired. She never wears it and wants to sell it. It’s in good condition, but the inscription on the back would need to be buffed out. It has my dad’s name and his years of service with Georgia...

Does anyone use Talley QD rings and bases on their Sako rifles with the standard Sako tapered grooved receiver? If so, how do you like them?

I’ve always been somewhat intrigued by the looks of the Blaser K95, but until I got to handle one at SCI this year, I didn’t know how much I’d like them. Turns out I REALLY like them. And now I find myself talking myself into one. Not sure what caliber I’d start off with, but I’m thinking about...

Was wondering what the concensus is on the need of a third fastener on a double rifle. I've noticed that they are used on many doubles, notably in Heym and Merkel, but not used on others, such as Chapuis and Krieghoff. What makes some manufacturers use it, and some not? Do guns such as Krieghoff...

As some of you may know, I have owned several and still own a couple Blaser R8 rifles and barrels. So I guess you can mark me down as a fan. I have had good success with them in every aspect. They are accurate, deadly and dependable, for lack of better words. However, I can't help but wonder...

I have up for sale, a Blaser R8 Professional in 9.3x62. The barrel, bolt assembly and bolt head are brand new, unfired, just like they came from the factory. Perfect condition. The stock is used, but in excellent condition. I bought this stock used, and it looks to have been used very little...

For Sale. 17mm 30/06 barrel with no iron sights. Factory magazine included. I bought this barrel from Somarriba earlier this year. It was said to be unfired, although it had been mounted on a rifle and had a scope attached. I have not fired it myself, so it is just as I received it. Everything...

This rifle is in excellent condition, in the factory box. I purchased this new and have not fired it. I have cycled a few rounds through it to check feeding, which was perfect. I also adjusted the trigger down to a nice weight. As it came from the factory, it was far too heavy. (These triggers...

Up for sale is a Sako Brown Bear 416 Rigby in excellent condition. I bought this rifle from a close friend of mine who bought it new. He fired 4 rounds through it, and I've fired 33 rounds. So total round count is 37. These are no longer in production. Feeds and functions flawlessly. Action is...

I hate everything about traveling to Africa. I hate airports. I hate grumpy TSA agents. I hate taking my shoes off and being herded like cattle being led to slaughter. I hate 6 hour layovers. I hate being shoehorned into a tiny seat for 16 hours and being asked if I need a bottle of water and a...

If you were leaving this August to hunt a bull elephant and tuskless elephant in Zimbabwe, (as I am), what rifle/caliber would you use? Would you use a double, or bolt gun? 375, 416, or something bigger? I'll most likely be using a Blaser R8 458 WM, with 450gr bullets as my primary gun, with an...

So, as many of you already know, I'm planning to return to the OMAY this year. I had planned a repeat performance of last years hunt for Tuskless Elephant and Cape Buffalo. Then I got to thinking, why not shoot a bull Elephant as well? I've always had an ultimate plan of hunting a bull, but have...

For those who are thinking of mounting an RMR on a Blaser R8. This is the Trijicon 1 MOA RMR on a RM60 QD mount. It is easily mounted and dismounted with the push of a lever. Holds zero perfectly when mounted and dismounted as well. Line of sight is very low, so it gives you a very good cheek...

Here's a video I made of top loading and de-cocking the Blaser R8. These two operations seem to be difficult for some people who are new to the R8. Hopefully this will help.

Well....it's official. I'm going back to Zim in 2023, for another Buffalo, Tuskless Elephant hunt. Leaving on August 7 for a 10 day hunt. Looking forward to ringing out the R8 again. This time, I'll be using a 458 Win Mag. Although the 375 did a fine job last year, I'm looking forward to living...

The nights in Africa can be quite noisy at times. Especially in the Omay, Zimbabwe. Hippo fighting for their territory, Lions fighting for their next meal, and myself fighting for my chance to tell the next joke around the campfire, with a cold Zambezi Lager in hand. Quite nerve racking! On the...

I recently purchased an R8 Pro S stock. This is the stock without the removable magazine. My question is, if someone here owns one of these, can you tell me if your stock has rubber bumper in the front of the magazine well where the magazine box goes? The removable magazines have this feature...

For Sale. Winchester 70 Safari Express 416 Rem Mag, that was re-barreled by SSK Firearms with a stainless 21.5" barrel. Also features a McMillan fiberglass stock. LOP 14 1/4". Weight is 9lbs. Action is smooth and feeds well. The barrel has at most 40 rounds through it. I'm heavily invested into...

It seems the Blaser R8 is a source of much debate these days. Some positive, some negative. Those that own them seem to love them. Those that don't, seem to either be indifferent, or simply hate them. Not much middle ground. It also is a fact that the 458 Winchester has garnered it's share of...

That damned 3…7…5 is good for nothing but rats I tell ya! Damned dirty little rats! Leave that thing at home and take a real gun!!! As many of us do, I put hours and hours and hours of thought into caliber selection for hunting dangerous game. Sometimes it consumes me so much I can hardly get...

Oh shit!….he’s looking right at us! Do you see him??? Chap, my PH, remarked, as our game scout pointed out a black shadow in the thick thorn bushes. A quick glance through my scope, which had now been zoomed up to 4X, revealed the sight that I had been awaiting for several days. A big, old, hard...

Well....the deed is done. My latest Blaser R8 Professional 375 H&H is no longer unfired. Today I remedied that situation. I mounted a Nikon Monarch 1-4×20 on it recently, and so far I really like the scope as well. It's very clear and has the fast focus eyepiece, and very positive turret...

Unfired in the box. Sauer 100 9.3x62 22" Barrel Weight 6.5 lbs. Magazine Capacity 5 rounds. I ran a few cartridges through it and checked function, which is perfect. Very smooth feeding. Haven't mounted a scope or fired it though. Bought on impulse (as usual) so my loss is your gain! I also...

Some rifles and calibers just seem to work well together. It's always been my opinion that the 416 Rem Mag is the best caliber in the Winchester 70 Safari Express lineup. I've owned this rifle for several years now, and actually took my first Cape Buffalo with it. However, while walking through...

Sako Finnlight 30/06. Like new in factory box. Stainless Steel. Fluted 22.4" barrel. 5 round detachable magazine. Weight 6lbs. I bought this rifle new and have only shot it a few times to sight the scope in. Shoots very well, and feeds and ejects very well. This rifle is in otherwise perfect...

Just went and picked up one of the new Marlin 1895 SBL rifles today. Ruger really knocked this one out of the park! I've owned and handled many Marlins in my time, and this one is nicer and more well finished than any of the older ones. Very slick action and feeds very smoothly. Haven't shot it...
