And another gun I no longer need. This shotgun has hunted behind my GSP from Montana to Texas and New Mexico. It has taken Hungarian partridge, chukars, prairie chickens, prairie sharptail, mountain sharptail, blue/dusky grouse, doves, etc. It comes with an Americase. Asking $4,500 Specs: 28”...

I’ve had a couple of inquiries about my next guns for sale, so I thought I had better get busy! Asking $3,200. Arrietta 458 imported by Orvis. 20 ga 28” 2 3/4” choked cylinder and #2 skeet. This is ideal for ruffs and quail IMO. Length of pull 14 1/2 front and 13 5/8 rear. As best as I can...

This is a beauty! I think it is from about 1987. I bought it from the original owner, but he had never fired it. He said it was an investment. I paid $5,500 and would like to get my money back. I have fired it at the range, but my eyesight isn’t good enough to use the open sights. My plan was to...

$1,650 including Leupold bases and 30 mm rings. A tough decision between this and my MRC, but all my Africa history is with the MRC, so the Talkeetna is the one to go.

Met some buddies at the range today. We had a 22lr day using the 50 yard range. My buds had Remington 40x, a Tikka target model in a chassis, a Kimber military 52, and a Remington 37. They all had 20x scopes. A bit intimidating! I had a generic CZ 452 with a 3-9x Burris rimfire scope. Of course...

Asking $950 shipped. New Haven 30-06 pre-64 type controlled feed.

$500 shipped to FFL in lower 48. No clue what it costs to ship to AK. Bell & Carlson camo stock and fore end. Nice dark timber elk rifle. Easy to carry. 6lbs 14oz without scope. Shoots 180 and 200 grain Nosler Partitions well. Not a bad trigger at 3 1/2 lbs for a Remington pump. Spare magazine.

Asking price…$650 shipped to lower 48 to your FFL. This is a pretty clean Savage 99F. Brass rotary magazine. Crack in the stock at the tang (just like all 99s I’ve ever seen.) It appears that either a recoil pad was removed, or the stock was shortened at one time. I have a 1” Limbsaver on it to...

I need to get rid of a bunch of stuff, so I’m starting with my plethora of .375 bullets. $500.00 takes them all. Includes shipping. If you like to experiment or just shoot a lot, this is the deal for you. Bullet Mfg/weight/description Qty MidwayUSA (NF est. from old invoice) Total...

Just talking with Dr Ray and found out another Australian member, Bruce Moulds (@bruce moulds), has died! He got meningococcal meningitis. Only 69. Sad for his family. Rest in peace Bruce.

The bad and the good of it. Bottom line...I must be honest and report that I won’t return just for hogs...a waist of money. JMO, but their market niche is exotics year round and deer during season. I would highly recommend paying to hunt a lower cost exotic during the day, then hogs at night in...

15 years and 4 months of unconditional loyalty. We woke yesterday as normal. I let old Rosco out. Suddenly he wasn't coming back in. I looked out and he was moving strangely staggering in circles. I went and brought him in. Lifted him onto the coach as ive had to do for a while now. His head was...

Just read where Larry Ellison is moving the headquarters of Oracle to Austin. Elon Musk has already moved to Texas and has threatened to move Tesla. Numerous other high tech California companies have made the move or are considering moving to Texas. Austin is already a very liberal city. Sadly...

I received the monthly email from New Mexico. I found this article that I thought might interest someone here. “Special oryx hunts available for injured service members Every year, the Department of Game and Fish offers oryx hunts for injured veterans on White Sands Missile Range. Injured...

Mine is up! Hope everyone is healthy and happy? Best to all! Phil

My buffalo backskin came in with the hair still on. I wrote for the hair to be remove, but it wasn’t. That’s apparently Africa. But, I want to make a cartridge belt and regular belts out of it. So can the hair be removed now that it is tanned? Thanks for any help!

Just had a friend from Burris Optics verify that Nikon is getting out of the scope business. It sounds like they have been pressured for quite a while by photographers and birdwatchers to get out of the hunting industry. Finally the heads of Nikon in Japan bowed to their majority customer base...

Sad things are happening to Colorado. We have brought in too many high tech businesses consequently too much ignorance as well of wildlife. I have lived here since 1976. I moved here because of fishing, hunting and many other outdoor activities. For years I could buy an OTC license for most big...

Got me a new toy! Doesn’t appear to have ever been fired. Took it out for a preserve pheasant hunt. Shotgun works well (once I get use to the safety location!) My old eyes don’t focus well enough to use the open sights for the 30-06. Looking for a mount to use one of my Burris Fastfire sights...

PawPrint Safaris had an offer on AH while I was in Africa in 2018. No one seemed interested because either they thought it was a put and take, or because they couldn’t bring anything back to the states from the lions. Well, I have no space for a mounted lion and I just wanted the experience of...

Please take time at 3:00pm to have a moment of silence to honor and remember all the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice for us to have our freedom. Thank you all past and present for going into harms way to give me my freedoms! My flag is hanging in your honor. Phil

Just wondering how the 300 gr FMJ in particular holds up on small game such as jackal, honey badger, civet, serval, genet, etc. any of the smaller Africa critters. It shoots pretty accurately in my rifles. Thanks!

Texas Dall, Corsican, and Merino Ram Hunt at the Rockin-G-Ranch After talking to Gizmo (Erik) I decided to buy the special he was running on AH. He needed to get rid of these 3 rams in order to bring in some Mouflon ewes and didn’t want jealousy going on between his Mouflon rams and these...

I hope all the AH members in Alaska are OK after the earthquake? Please let us know!

Texas Cull Mule Deer Doe & Granddaughter’s First Big Game Hunt Gizmo advertised a good deal for his cull mule deer doe hunt on AH. It sounded like a perfect first big game hunt for my 12 year old granddaughter, Leah, and if successful, it would get us some tasty meat for the freezer! Erik said...

I cannot believe another year has gone by since the last Veterans Day. I’ve been texting my thanks and appreciation to all my friends who served and who are still. All of our veterans are the absolute BEST! Thank you! Thank you! Here’s wishing you peace and calm on this day of remembrance! Phil

http://www.northforkbullets.com/ FYI, Just received an email blast. Through October 19, 2018.

Hope all you folks living in the line hurricane Michael has taken are safe? Here’s wishing you the best. We will keep you in our hearts and thoughts. Best Phil

I just found this short write up I did for a friend about a helicopter hog hunt I went on. I thought some of you might have an interest in doing it so, here it is: 2013 November Helicopter Hog Hunt The hunt was done by Cedar Ridge Aviation (Cedarridgeaviation.com, or helihoghunts.com). The...

I’m looking for a light weight synthetic stainless steel rifle in 6.5 Creedmore for my granddaughter’s 2020 Africa hunt. She will be 14 then and I’m sure the stock will need to be shortened. I called Kimber C.S. To find out if their Montana or Hunter model stocks could be shortened. The answer...

Does anyone own one of these? Apparently on the sling you tie it together with a shoelace, but no instructions came with them nor is there anything on their website. The same with the bino strap except instead of a shoelace it is leather thongs. Again no instructions with it or on their website...

Just an FYI. I received an e-mail they are having a 10% off sale through June 15. http://www.northforkbullets.com/magento/

Thanks to all our veterans and those currently serving! I was fortunate enough to be on the beaches of Normandy and at the American cemetery there on the 50th anniversary of D-Day. A tremendously humbling experience! Thank you all for preserving my freedom and liberties!

PawPrints Safaris 2018 May 10-23, 2018 Booked airport shuttle service door-to-door. Costs a lot less than driving and parking. Delta flight DL1547 to Atlanta leaving at 11:40 am. Almost a 4 hour layover, then DL0200 to OR Tambo (premium economy seat 30F), Joberg, RSA arriving May 11 at 5:35 pm...

Tried 3 rounds from my MRC for my first test today at 100yds. Swift 300gr A-Frame 375 H&H factory load. Was trying to use a Magnetospeed chronograph while doing it, but with my muzzle brake it wouldn’t record. If it keeps this up, I think they did a good enough load in their factory loads...

Well apparently if you want to reload TBBC bullets you can forget it according to an email reply I received from Speer. In essence, they said TBBC bullets are actually a Federal bullet that was distributed by Speer for a short time. Now they are just loaded into Federal ammunition and not...

Just an FYI. Rhino Bullets in South Africa is looking for a U.S. distributor according to an email I received from them. I emailed them trying to find out info and where to buy them here. Best

https://www.hornady.com/new-products/bullets OK somebody give these a try and let us know if it really is an improvement! My rifle won’t shoot 10,000 miles to try them out! LOL! I like it that they are round nose and the profile is the same as the DGS.

Just an FYI on the TCM channel they are showing great old movies and documentaries on Africa today. King Soloman’s Mines, Below the Safari, Savage Splendor, Watusi, Trader Horn, etc.

Barnes factory 150 gr TTSX shoots in 1/2” or less in my ancient Remington Sportsman 78. So I thought I could come up with a similar performance or better (wishful thinking) by handloading. Well, consistently it would cluster two within 1/2”, then open up. I was seating them to what Barnes...

Finally the time has come! Varmints beware! When I saw PawPrints deal for this hunt, I just couldn't resist. Caracal, serval, genet, jackal, bushbuck, reedbuck, bushpig and of course porcupine. Sounds like a large task to get all these, but I just couldn't resist adding one more animal to the...

Well, not sure where I can put my next trip? Cape buff will have to be a Euro mount just to get it in the room. Had to hang my black bear over a chair to make room for the zebra. Where do you guys find the space? I might need to rent a warehouse to turn into my "Man Cave"!:(
