    Finally stretched the Bergara out

    Finally got to stretch the Bergara HMR pro in 6.5 creedmoor out to 1000 yards (1086 technically, haha) 143 ELDX did pretty good, Strelok data was basically spot on, couldn't really rely on it for the wind tho bc it was so swirly and there was some serious thermals coming off the side of the...

    Bear back from Spring 2022

    Not an African hunt, but I figured everyone loves cool taxidermy, and I was really happy with this guy!

    Finally Got A Pedestal Made For Some Trophies

    Have had these pieces for a while from some hunts over the last couple of years. Had a somewhat transient life for a bit, overseas a bunch for work and not really "settled" when I was in the states. Feels good to finally get these things up and displayed and not packed away. This was my first...

    Help requested!! Weird grouping with 6.5 Creedmoor (advice/ guidance welcome)

    First off.... Sorry there's no pictures to help illustrate this but I'll try to make it as easy as possible..... Bought a Bergara HMR Pro in 6.5 creedmoor a while back, it's a great gun and I've shot them a bunch before buying mine. I've been messing around with it seeing which factory...

    Interesting Bullet comparison video

    Meateater did a neat video the other day, kinda wish they wouldve used something bigger than a 6.5. Regardless, the copper bullet conversation has definitely been heating up lately.

    Lack of American made optics

    Seems these days the only American made optics are from a handful of companies... and they're only making a couple of models made for the mil/gov community. What would it take for a company to make your standard 3-9 second focal plane duplex classic ol' whitetail scope? And what would guys...

    Got my Zebra Rug in! Erongo Taxidermy did a great job!

    Got my Zebra rug back from a hunt this past Spring in Namibia. Erongo Taxidermy did a fantastic job and gave great customer service! Same with African Shipping Services out of Windhoek, very responsive and friendly. I'm very excited about this and trying to debate whether I want to hang it on...

    Taking ITAR controlled scopes into countries as a gift

    I have a friend in Namibia who I'm trying to trade a scope to for something. It's a Trijicon Tenmile FFP, so ITAR rules apply as far as I can tell. When you take weapons over for hunting are scopes part of the paperwork process? And is it going to raise any flags if I show up with the scope...

    Remington/ Peters 30-06 "blue tipped" 165 grain

    Wondering if anyone has any experience with this round? It's by Remington marketed under the old Peters name, brass case, blue tipped bullet, retro looking box (kinda cool). I found a decent deal on a couple hundred rounds and seems like it would make a pretty good round for Impala/ Whitetail...

    What animal do you consider specific African countries to be "known" for?

    My only hunt (but definitely not the last) in Africa happened by chance. I was in Namibia getting my Private Pilots License in Swakopmund, and we went on a sort of field trip. One of the guys (who was Namibian) already had a PPL and was building hours and studying to get his Commercial Rating...
