his thumbnail is the width of the butt end of the stock. definitely a scam

I purchased some peregrine 480 grain to load for my 450 nitro express. both the solid copper and bushmaster. it has been forever since these have been available for purchase in the USA. Does anyone have any info on the company? any time these will be available is the US? im about to quit...

450NE 480gr, 416RM 400gr, 9.3x74r 286gr. all hydros, PLEASE!!!

double! u already have bolts.

i’m on Terrell Mill about a five minute walk from the Publx. you were right down the road from me.

i have a couple doubles. one in 450NE and one in 9.3x74r. i am very comfortable out to 100 yards with both using open sights.

small world! im in the wheeler school district. didnt grow up here but moved here 6 years ago. i grew up on lake lanier, a little north of me.

blondes, brunettes, and redheads…

i would feel comfortable with either my 450NE double, or my 416RM with a premium solid.

pig country

welcome! east cobb here. this is a great site which you will find out.

someone knows their watches

Jeez lots of Rolex bashing here, gentlemen. not really sure why. If u dont want one, great. but please dont bash people that do appreciate them. the rolex tool watch lines (sub, gmt, milgaus, explorer) are exceptional timepieces and are remarkably accurate. i used to be in the rolex bashing...

id hate to have to shoot a bear with a handgun. they can cover 100 yards in 6 seconds. hitting a moving target which might be coming to chew on me isnt something i ever want to find out. that being said, i carry a ruger 44mag wheel gun when im hunting and have my 416 or 338.

400 grain Barnes TSX

im not judging. we all have different tastes and preferences. we could all ride the bus or some other form of transportation but some choose not to. i dont begrudge a person who owns a car rather that opting for public transportation. kind of the same with watches. if watches or cars or...

picked up the same reference in a black dial fairly recently. Absolutely love it.

thats correct. only a namibian citizen can own 51% of property without an exception from the govt, which will not happen. gotta find someone u trust who is namibian. there is a russian oligarch that owns lots of land but has a letter from the president allowing such.

ive been on quite a few caribou and griz hunts in alaska up in the noatak and kelly river drainages. seen ONE wolf and that was from the plane on one of the trips. weve heard them howling numerous other times from camp and hunting otherwise. we see tracks but they are ghosts. it is a true...

anyone who has hunted alaska can vouch for this: your rifle WILL, not might, get beaten up, dinged, scratched. i try to keep guns from getting scratched up but i gave up. not possible lol. besides, they are badges of honor in my eyes.

they are worse than useless. They actively work against western capitalist interests.

The UN meeds to be moved out of the US, and stop being funded by western countries.

i dont leave the tent at night. piss bottle always always

up on the kelly river in Alaska. charged by a griz while skinning one i had taken prior…if u click on my AH name u will see a pic of the griz i took.

I definitely would. The airline will be happy to find somebody that’s stealing.

did not know that. i ordered a scope from them but it was a while ago. good to know

i dont check a bag without an airtag. even going on a ski trip. its nice to know your bag arrived no matter the contents. one thing to consider is that almost every square inch of “sterile” airport property in the united states has cameras. u could probably press the issue and see if there...

contact the leupold custom shop. tell them what you are looking for. they will be able to price out a custom scope for you.

nightmarish!!

a majestic creature like that big brownie deserved better than to be sniped at from 500 yards away. this hunt dishonored that bear. hats off to that bear for fighting until its last breath. thats what they do. what an amazing creature. not that i want anything to happen to a hunter but its...

canon image stabilizing 8x30s. it’s amazing how much the impact of image stabilizing cuts down on eye fatigue when glassing for a while. It’s all I will ever use.

capstick was just making a point as to the element and allure of DG hunting that is lost when shot from such a long distance. i happen to agree.

ive been fortunate to have been able to hunt and harvest an alaskan griz. i am glad that they owned up to all the mistakes they made, the first making the decision to fire from 470 yards. ive actually taken one animal at that range. it was a caribou up in the noatak river drainage with my 338...

45-70 on DG? no. Not even in the conversation. a DG gun needs to be a stopping rifle. u might kill that griz u shot with your 45-70, but if not anchored and he get to u, he has enough oxygen in his brain to maul u before he flops over. never never an option.

i love the IWCs. I have Pilots Mark xvi, classic pilots chronograph (3717-01 reference), and a GST stainless. gorgeous line of watches.

i prefer to have a sling. (with QD swivels). remove whenever moving thru areas where visibility is limited. also, u can use the sling with the rifle in front of your shoulder, muzzle up, not on your back. ive practiced this carry technique. its amazingly fast to bring an animal into sights...

this is absolutely the way to do it. works with really any european mount.

470 NE. abundant ammo available in africa relative to other doubles if shooting factory ammo.

thanks for the heads up! I ordered one

100% butchering on the family farm in minnesota during deer season. the family also butchers beef, pigs, and chickens. no meat bought at the store that i can ever remember.

“we better not risk another frontal assault. That rabbit’s dynamite!”

what a memory to treasure! he was a masterful storysteller and ignited my passion for hunting the dark continent.

im the same way. i picked up Capsticks “death in dark continent” about 25 years ago and was immediately hooked. now i have all of his and have read most of them several times. fantastic writer that puts you right in the action, page after page.

i have a 338wm, 9.3x74r double, 416rm, and 450ne double. i personally found that the 416 filled that same gap, as would a 416 rigby or 404 jeffrey. just my humble 2 cents.

i’ve heard good things on those as well.

you cant go wrong with either Leupold or Zeiss. These are the 2 brands I have on all my scoped rifles. I agree with you that the 6 power minimum is just too high for hunting. happy hunting!

True about caribou. They flop over pretty easy.
