I have 3 vintage holsters for a contender. 2 used and 1 still in the packaging. I would guess 30+ years old.
Helping my aunt sell my late uncle's things.
$225 shipped for all 3.
Just a brief report on the hunt I just returned from. Not good at writing things.
Due to cheap airfare I found and booked a hunt on fairly short notice with home counties sporting in the Waddesdon area.
4 day hunt planned. I arrived a bit early so we took off and hunted the first evening...
Barely off the plane from my first safari with @HENRY GRIFFITHS SAFARIS.
South Africa and Henry delivered far more than expected. This was supposed to be a one and done trip but there is no doubt we will be back in a few years.
My son and I spent 5 full hunting days in the Limpopo province...
Well after a couple years of owning it I finally took the little rifle out hunting this year. I never took it before as I prefer bigger calibers for serious hunts and had very little experience with anything that small.
But I drew a doe tag and decided this would be the perfect opportunity to...
Waited 12 years for this day but my grandson finally got to go on his first deer hunt. We had one planned in Texas last year but being sick with covid got that canceled.
This past Saturday morning here at home we managed to put a short stalk on this doe about 9am and he was able to take the...
I just purchased this 30-06 from an 80 year old man. He said it was his father's. A General that brought it back with him. He claims harvested about 20 animals in various countries.
I paid $800
And what is the extra piece that came for the scope?
Well like others with nowhere to go right now I got caught up and found a Ruger African in 6.5x55 that I had to buy.
Money will be sent tomorrow and hopefully will be in possession in a week or so.
Used but like new in box for $900
Didn't haggle the price as it's getting hard to find rifles...
I know these are really cheap entry level rifles. But just had to shout out my kids just bought 2 on clearance at wal mart with cheap scopes on them for $54 dollars each.
One in 270 and the other 308.
Regular price is $260
I've been back for 3 weeks already just haven't taken the time to post.
Drove from Colorado to Huntsville texas with my grandson to enjoy a few days off and get away from a virus outbreak at my workplace. My son didn't get to go for this reason as he was exposed.
Had a great 2 days fishing...
Just returned from my first fishing trip to costa rica.
Spent 2 full days fishing along with other things.
First day was totally wasted chasing rooster fish with no bites at all. Another captain told me the next day they hadn't been hitting for over a week due to the heat.
First boat blew an...
Well I've received my 375 h&h whitworth and begun setting it up.
I don't have my scope yet but impatient to try it I'm at the range now.
I'd never fired anything this big so in anticipation of severe recoil I drilled and added a mercury recoil reducer myself and a slip on limbsaver pad. Only...
I haven't had time to play with it much yet and haven't even taken things apart.
But I was wondering if someone has a link to proper process of adjusting the trigger.
It currently has a horrible amount of creep. I've never adjusted a trigger before but have replaced several.
Decided to play...
Since I'm new to all this I thought I'd ask to be sure.
I'm assuming a 100 yard zero for the 375 based on planned usage but 200 is what I've used all my life for smaller calibers.
Decided to verify with the experts here
In looking for cheap ammo to practice with I came across the Armscor loaded with 300gr accubonds for just over $40 a box.
Any experience with this ammo? Even if just for practice?
So as I'm in the process of purchasing my first Whitworth in 375 H&H I was wondering what the best options would be for things such as scope mounts, recoil pad, and possible trigger upgrade or just adjustment.
Would also like to get a front sight hood to replace the one that is missing.
I...
Just thought I'd start the new year but posting my family's plans for 2020 and further.
I work as much as possible to make this happen. My only day off in december was Christmas. I'm just a produce manager in a grocery store near Aspen but I guess fortunately we're always understaffed making...
Just out of curiosity I was looking at a withworth 375 at cabelas. Looks basically new and they're asking 799.
Decent rifle? Decent price?
Gun broker is all higher but that means nothing.
I know nothing about these rifles and don't need at all. But due to reading the forums I suddenly want a...
Well after reading here a few weeks I took the plunge and did what I never thought I would do and booked the first safari for my son and i.
18 months is a long time to wait but will give the time we need to prepare and save the rest of the money.
Booked with henry griffiths due to great deal...
I may have gotten ahead of myself in planning but haven't quite booked a trip yet.
Does anyone know if an alcohol conviction prohibits travel to south Africa? My son in a moment of stupidity when he was 21 just over 5 years ago got a dwai here in colorado. That's why wr hunt alaska and not...
New member from colorado.
Looking forward to learning everything I can here.
My son and I are thinking of planning our first Africa trip for 2021.
Always looking for new adventure and this is the next step.
Don't make a lot of money but spend every bit of it on hunting or fishing.
