Did you rent a car at the airport and drive to hunting camp? I see on the outfitter's website that they mention a van for airport shuttle. Is there an option to take a second bear for an additional fee?

I didn't know there was a Glock chambered in 6.5 CM

Well done!

Looked on Ammoseek and 375 Ruger Hornady ammo is $65/20. Buy a few boxes, shoot it and you will have some once fired, fire formed to your rifle brass. Trying to find brass, at a reasonable price, is difficult on many calibers.

Yes and really didn’t notice much difference.

The looming social security problem, that neither Trump or Biden are talking about. https://finance.yahoo.com/news/the-coming-social-security-fight-could-be-1983-all-over-again-182418044.html...

I agree with @Ed Lally about the underground economy. There is a huge amount of people in the US in various trades (home construction, plumbing, electricians, etc) that will quote a price and quote a lower "cash" price, which of course goes un-reported. I know a lot of people that have hobbies...

Interesting video. Poland is preparing for Russia. Given Poland's history, can't say I blame them.

Congratulations on leopard #2. You are getting pretty good at this! I bet you are already planning for #3 in a few years.

Hopefully this is the correct, new seating lay out. I flew Delta Premium Select last year (Airbus) and it was good enough and I got the seats with miles. I think it was about 250k miles per seat. From the seating chart, you can see that Premium select seating is configured 2-4-2 for 8 across...

@MLindsay why don’t you post the correct seating chart. That would be helpful.

Row 41

Interesting discussion on this video. I am guessing this chick in the TikTok video won't make the sandwiches! :LOL:

A couple of good, recent videos

@jduckhunter congratulations on the nilgai! Would you agree that a south Texas nilgai hunt is very similar to an African PG hunt? I think yes and it's a great gateway hunt for people in the US.

My 375 Ruger Alaskan, laminated stock, has a 23 inch barrel. Ruger made a few of these, but most had the 20 inch barrel.

Guess you haven't heard about the futures market Contango is a futures market occurrence marked by futures contract prices rising above spot prices. It means that traders and investors anticipate an increase in prices in the coming months. The opposite of contango is backwardation, when futures...

A lot to like and laugh at here

Personally, I would not go the reboring route as I think it would take away weight and wall thickness of the barrel to an unreasonable level. Get a new barrel. I re-barreled a rifle and the cost wasn't too bad. The wait time to actually get the barrel was painfully slow, quoted 6 months and...

Isn't this sort of like how World War I started? Slovakian Prime Minister Robert Fico, 59, was shot several times—including in the abdomen—on Wednesday in an apparent assassination attempt, according to the leader’s official Facebook page. An assailant fired four shots outside a cultural center...

Total BS.

The next battleground? Oil production is expected to increase to over one million barrels a day, thanks to several deepwater discoveries in recent years. The obvious market for this crude is US gulf coast refiners. I worked and lived in Trinidad in the mid 1990s and the Venezuelans frequently...

Kamala..............does it again

I went with the Grizzly stick system (650 gr) for elk and PG. Using Iron Will and VPA two blade single bevel. I think the heavier build (800-900 gr) with high FOC as per Dr Ashby is the way to go. Do a search on AH member @Bowhuntr64. He posts a lot of broadhead tests and also posted a video...

Excellent report! You did quite well with your shooting too, since most of your shots were 200+ yards. The @GAME 4 AFRICA SAFARIS crew does it again with another great hunt.

A friend of a friend did a hunt in Pakistan, maybe ten years ago. Had a great hunt as I recall. The devil is in the details.

People that have actually crawfished will get this

Heck of a story! Sell the movie rights!

I remember a classic line from Archie Bunker: The problem with traveling to Europe is there are so many foreigners there!

I have a 2025 buffalo hunt booked with Karl and @ndumo HUNTING SAFARIS in the Caprivi or I guess it's now being called the Zambezi region.

Like the United States, Finland has a capitalist economy. Why are Finns so much happier than us? Could it be the US is still a work in progress and the Finns are Finnished?? :A Outta:

OTC! Packing out an elf is much easier than and elk, or a deer for that matter. Usually takes only one trip. Much smaller targe, so you got to get close. Real hunting!

My Montana elf hunting outfitter bought a couple "Best of the West" rifles (they actually call them shooting systems, rifle+scope+suppressor) in 300 PRC and are offering them for clients use. If they think a 300 PRC is good for elk, then it's good for African PG. Put the bullet in the right...

The very first time I heard about Matt Walsh was during the "Cecil the Lion" hysteria. Walsh wrote an article that perfectly summed it up. A must read! https://www.theblaze.com/contributions/sometimes-its-just-easier-to-care-about-dead-lions-than-dead-people

@fourfive8 why are you spreading your hate to this thread? Your post is unrelated to this thread.

I use an Evoshield recoil pad / T shirt. A very thin pad that custom molds to your shoulder area. Works great.

Interesting, humorous video. Especially for our friends in Oz.

There's an old funny story, which I doubt is true, but funny nonetheless: Back in the 1970s, the Dallas Cowboy's legendary coach, Tom Landry, had an open invitation from a Texas rancher to come hunt on his ranch. So Landry asked his tight ends coach, Mike Ditka, if he wanted to go hunting with...

When I lived and worked in Angola and Nigeria, we used Go2Africa.com as a travel agent. We used them for several photo safaris in Kenya, Bots, Zim and Zam. They also handled hunting trips to Nam and RSA, plus a trip to Cape Town. Wonderful, well organized trips. Go2Africa had a driver with...

I read something recently about Trump's criteria for selecting a VP running mate. Supposedly he doesn't want anyone who might be a presidential hopeful in 2028. This is bizarre! Having a VP running mate who will be a strong presidential candidate is maybe the most important criteria. I'd...

Drain the swamp? Build the wall? Neither happened.

Hamas said Monday that it had accepted a Gaza cease-fire proposal from Egypt and Qatar, but details were not immediately available and it was not clear whether Israel had agreed to the terms...

Interesting video

I hunted in November and it was hot then. Can’t imagine hunting in the summer time.

Another great Spanish adventure! This is on my bucket list and looks like plenty of stuff for my non-hunting wife to enjoy as well.

Jared Bernstein is Biden's Chairman of Economic advisors. He has just accomplished what many people thought was impossible. Bernstein has made Kamala Harris look like a gifted orator and deep thinker. What makes Bernstein an expert in economics? Bernstein graduated with a bachelor's degree in...
