If Odonata doesn't want them for some reason - I'll take them.

Beautiful rifle - 2 questions. What defines a Germanic style stalking rifle ? How long is the barrel ?

I have seen in other forums they are a legit company but their shipping costs are high. I have no experience with them.

I have pretty much the same gun. Bought it when I was younger and it was my only "big game" rifle for a long time. Shoots just about anything you feed it into very small groups, factory ammo or handloads, 130 grain - 150 grain doesn't matter. Mine has a very smooth action and is dead reliable...

That is what is called a "project gun". 35 Whelen is an excellent choice.

It seems most have missed your original question of deciding between a 7mm-08 and the 7mm Rem Mag.,there is quite a wide gap between the two. Also, you didn't mention what animals you were targeting ? Blesbok, Springbok, Bushbuck size game or Kudu, Eland, Waterbuck etc ? You also wanted a gun...

That makes 2 of us (well 3 counting my wife). Been here 6 years on a work project that ends next year. We are looking to move back to Pennsylvania and looking forward to the day I can buy an AR, suppressor, pistol with a threaded barrel and extended mags. It really is the Peoples Republic of...

A sling is for more than just carrying your rifle over your shoulder. I guess many people have either forgot or dont know how to use a sling properly to shoot. It's indispensable for me as a shooting aid.

I've been using ApexLoad Pro software for a year now and it is a godsend for reloaders. It covers literally every catridge/powder/bullet combination out there. Its a German based program so all the EU powders and cartridges are listed as well as the typical US based. I ran the simulator on a 6.5...

Lodge looks fantastic ! I hope you have a great hunt.

I'll take the Vortex scope cover you have listed in the Pay it Forward thread. Ken [redacted]

I'll take the Vortex bikini scope cover and the other items as well if you want to ship all together.- PM coming

A couple of things I didnt see in the post were: *What are the dates you are going and for how long. *Are you flying on a preferred US carrier for points/miles (?) *Do you have to fly out of Nashville ? Its a 4 hour drive to ATL - It may be cheaper to overnight and leave from there ? *Are you...

I think the SST lineup is one of the more accurate hunting bullets on the market. I have yet to find a gun that won't shoot them accurately with any number of powders. Great for whitetail size game, usually full pass thru penetration and devastating wound channels.
