I am restoring a winchester M70 post 64 in .458 wm. I send it to full re-bluing and now I will continue with the wood, but before doing a refinish I would like to know if there is any oil to bring the stock back to life or if it is necessary to redo everything, thanks for your help.

I flew from South Africa through Turkey, USA and Mexico with a .308 brass that traveled in my bag by mistake but I didn't have a single problem at any airport, I only realized it when my wife found it in the washing machine

Please don't get mad at me, I've been traveling for work and I haven't been able to finish writing this story even in Spanish. Thank you all very much for your comments, all I wanted is to give back a little to this community that makes us dream awake. Day 5 After a long night of rest...

As someone who has just returned for the first time, I can tell you that it is all true, before you get on the plane you will already be thinking about going back. enjoy the planning and preparation because this takes months and the hunt only last seconds

Thank you all very much for your words, I hope to finish the other days tomorrow, an apology but I'm trying to catch up in the office. Everyone can be sure that it was an unforgettable trip full of surprises and adventure

DAY 4 After a long night of little sleep from constantly checking that the fire will not be reactivated, it was finally time to prepare to go out again to look for my lion, Johan told me that because of the fire he hoped that the lions had moved more than the previous days and told me "today we...

Sorry for the delay, but I have tons of work, I will try to post more often DAY 3 We started the day like the others with a quick breakfast and went out to look for tracks, Johan decided to go straight to where we saw the lioness tracks the day before, we quickly saw that there was a lot of...

Day 2 After a long night of rest we were ready, we went to the dining room where breakfast was already waiting for us, after eating we sat down to sign all the permits and contracts before starting the hunt and we went out to zero the rifle, a K98 musgrave in . 375 h&h with Hornady DGX bullets...

I want to share a bit of my experience, and I apologize in advance as English is not my native language, but I hope everyone enjoys a bit of my story. This story begins like many others with many months of planning and research and after much thought I booked my lion hunt with Johan Potgieter...

I just got back from South Africa, it's amazing the amount of cattle and farmland outside the hunting areas there is nothing left. but do not think that because it is a high fence you are hunting cows, those animals are as wild as any I was not able to hunt an impala (and I saw hundreds) but I...

supposedly this is the buffalo

he was the president of FEMECA (the Mexican hunting federation), a great hunter and conservationist, a true tragedy, Rest in peace

only 3 weeks of my first safari and your story took me in the future to what will be my first hunt in the kalahari Thanks for sharing

I have never flown through Paris but my friends (Mexicans) have told me it is super easy and easier than flying through the USA

Bienvenido amigo, saludos desde Guadalajara ;)

when I started this post I never thought it would be so controversial, and I take a totally different path than I had thought. I am a new hunter and I still have a lot to learn but I am sure that the only thing we do not need is to divide ourselves, we are already 1% of the hunters vs all the...

I am only 3 months away from my lion and lioness hunt and reading your story I put myself in your shoes and my heart began to beat fast. congratulations for that great lioness and thanks for sharing

I also share the idea that a hunt on foot is more exciting and feels more real than hunting a lion on bait like a whitetail deer on corn. I personally have no problem hunting on high fences since there are no public lands in Mexico and most ranches are fenced. Reading your comments just...

I think several are very right, and as clients if we do our part the hunt will go smoothly, I am very excited about my first trip to Africa and I am preparing the best I can. I know that many do not agree with the lion hunt in SA but it is what I can pay at this time and if in the future my...

I have a lion safari in a few months and I was wondering how dangerous a dangerous hunt really is, are there any statistics or proportion of people injured or killed per year?

mexico is a great option, it's not gun friendly but you can have some decent options, a .380 pistol, 38 special revolver, a shotgun or an ar15 our law is a joke you can't have a 9mm but you can have an ar15 with the barrel so small as you like

I hope one day I can hunt one of these monsters, I just need to win the lottery and a mansion to mount it full body

I finally have my lion and lioness hunt booked in South Africa for October of this year, I already bought my rifle for the occasion (.458 Win mag) but now I need to get to Africa, I am Mexican and I live in Mexico. I want to fly via Los Angeles to Johannesburg with a stopover in Turkey, but I...

Thank you very much for your advice, I am very happy with my purchase and I am sure that it will work reliably

Thanks for the tip but if it doesn't work I'll do a complete rebluing, I don't think I'll use a scope at the moment I like it classic like that with open sights. Very rarely do the government store carry these calibers, but you can get them if you are willing to pay 2-3 times the US price.

I think I feel more confident with a push feed rifle that I know of than a CRF that I have never shot.

You guys are very lucky, and so am I to find this rifle since there aren't many out there in Mexico. this rifle has already hunted elephant, buffalo and hippo so I'm sure it will be up to the task, I just need a lot of practice already ordered some snap caps to start practicing

And the problem is not that there is only one store, the problem is that you have to gather tons of paperwork, anti-doping, psychological studies, proof of income, etc. and then wait 6-8 months for them to approve your permit and with your permission you can buy up to 3 weapons in different...

I was finally able to buy a rifle in a caliber suitable for dangerous hunting, it is an M70 .458 win mag but it is not CRF and the rifle needs some love but it is an interesting project. I know that many are not in favor of a post 64 M70 but in my country (Mexico) it is simply impossible to...
