    Fire Update from Woodleigh

    Fire Update 21.02.2025 Thank you for your patience and support, it has been frustrating for all concerned. We have most soft nose bullets back in stock from #06 500 Nitro SN to #64E 8x57I here in Australia. Just starting with exports of this new stock. There will be two new USA stockists, who...

    Enjoying “game” in the off season - Recipe ideas and reports

    How do you like to enjoy your “game” in the post season months? Backstraps, heart, liver are usually enjoyed soon after the hunt, but what are you pulling out of the freezer in February, etc.? I periodically browse through Escoffier for ideas, but it’s always been very easy to throw some...

    Shotgun Leather Forend Sleeves

    Shotgun forend sleeves. 5 of these are marked as “Hand crafted by John W. Bugden Murray, KY” and 2 are unmarked by maker. Some of them have light use/handling marks, but they all appear to be mostly unused and would (from my estimation) make for a new fit without wear slack. There are 2x...

    Wanted - 9.3x62 Reamer & Go Gauge

    Before we purchase new, I’ll ask if anyone has a reamer and/or go gauge they no longer have a need for. If so, shoot me a PM and we can go from there. Thank you. Josh

    For Trade: Components & Vintage Ammo - 458wm, 9mm Mauser, 500 3” BPE

    Vintage ammo is what it is. I like to have a couple boxes on the bookshelf. If you have any Kynoch in 404 Jeffery, 303 British (really any brand), or others to trade, feel free to make an offer to swap. These are currently my extras. I’m mainly starting to source components for a 404 Jeffery...

    Project 1917 in 300 H&H

    This is taking space and time I would rather allocate to other projects. 1917 converted to 300 H&H, Leupold M8 4x scope, Leupold QR bases and rings, 2 boxes of Winchester FaulSafe 180gr. The stock is stripped 97% and still needs some sanding, profiling, etc to taste. I personally do not like...

    Leupold 36x Fixed Power

    This is an older 36x fixed power Leupold with a fine reticle. I've tried to show the ring marks/wear in pictures. Glass is in good shape. This came in on a larger deal and I have no immediate use for it myself. $800 plus your preferences on shipping.

    Outdoor Cooking/Grilling/Braai Area

    There's a good deal of crossover between hunting and cooking, obviously. What does everyone like for dedicated outdoor cooking areas, be it a simple grill or a standalone Summer kitchen? An upcoming project is open ended at this point and I should start some back-of-the-napkin planning. Water...

    Tusker beer in the US

    Can anyone recommend a distributor in the US for Tusker lager? I found it years ago, and keep an eye out for it from time to time, and have had little luck running into another flat of the stuff. If anyone has a line on some, it's starting to get hot outside.

    Hornady 7x57 139gr BTSP InterLock (#8155)

    4 boxes total. Not sure what the street value is on these now, but if I can net the old sticker price, $120 for all 4, that'd be the ticket. Plan on actual shipping from southern Indiana.

    If you had a Charles Daly Zastava 98 action, what would you build it into?

    The action is currently barreled in .308, appears to be in good order, etc. Would you re-barrel to a 458WM? Something else entirely? The thought is to abandon a non-yet-begun M70 30-06 conversion to 458, and just go with the 98 as the base. Am I completely off my rocker? What other options am I...

    Scout Scope Upgrade (to Burris 2-7×32)

    Recently I scored a great deal on a Burris 2-7×, so today (after the .308 kill thread) I finished the "extra" work to get it mounted on my Savage. The Vortex scout scope which lived on this gun for a long while was much fatter and had to sit higher for it to clear. The Burris was able to get...

    9.3×57 Husqvarna $600 Shipped

    Got this earlier this year thinking it was rougher than it turned out to be. It's too nice *for me* to convert to x62, but you won't hear me complain if that's what you want to do. It had very slight surface rust that was 85% eliminated with a single session of oiling. This could be brought back...

    Expert Opinion Request

    The most dangerous game may indeed be asking for expert advice on the internet, but Im up for the challenge. There's a double rifle I've recently found, and I'd like to ask wiser individuals their opinion/casual evaluation of the piece. Being that it's an Army Navy rifle, I admit that I...

    Bookshelves, Etc.

    Having recently moved, the (seemingly never ending) task of unpacking, sorting, and arranging of "stuff" is upon me. For the time being*, I have the relatively uninhibited freedom of bachelor residence interior, shall we say, "decorating". Plenty of books are still in storage, but I've been...

    Greetings from Southern Indiana

    Very happy to no longer be exclusively a "lurker", and looking forward to interacting with members, especially any in my region of the US, and learning more from the experience of others.
