From time to time you'll find a Dakota 76 Traveler (or Safari Traveler) for sale in excellent shape (typ. .375 and .300 HH but other cartridge combos were offered...300 338 WM, 400 HH, 30-06, 458 L etc.) I saw one not too long ago for sale in AK (typ. $10-12K USD) but it vanished...These were...

And how does that tissue damage occur? F=MA plus ballistic construction (SD, metallurgy, or other ad-induced magic) causing a bit of shock and a wound channel. "This tissue isn't gonna damage itself!" The needmore certainly doesn't have frontal area going for it. The V component just came...

yes <$200K profit. I'm sure he still has some, but he's happy w/ his $4M over time! it'll still rise.

Translation: Gold ALWAYS appreciates, so buy it. With the NWO that lurks at so many (country) doors today, that is one of the ways to protect yourself, amongst many others...A Swiss butcher friend of mine (upon tips from the homeland) cashed in his retirement and bought $200K decades ago...He...

sry left a popular one out (that most PHs possess) Very pleasant to shoot!

LOL the needmore is the modern-day 30-30 variant. African game is NOT a deer in NA. They are built to withstand predator attacks and not all shot opps are ideal...What I used to do w/ my kids is hand My rifle over to them, not outfit them with some puny rig not ideal for the job. Also less...

Many different iterations of the M77 exist (i.e. I, II, etc.) but due to past lawsuits, Ruger triggered-up and many were in the 7.5 lb range (totally unacceptable!) One mfr. sells a replacement spring kit (it's akin to a Mauser or M70 trigger) that gives options of lowering the pull by 2.5-5...

Gneiss!

Is the AH server powered by defunded Somalis these days??? It's just been so slow and painful...I've flipped over to see what's going on on other pages during the delays! It was slower prior, but now painfully slow....'haven't read a thing about it. L E A V E T H E N E E D M O R E H O M...

It's not so much the caliber, but the puny cartridge. Use the .264 (nearly highest SD bullet due to its length, relative small diameter and relative high weight) in Win Mag, Rem Mag, or the RSAUM/WSM wildcats, and various larger Wby cases (RPM and prob. the best iteration for African PG, the...

My thoughts precisely: 'Have 2 "Husky" chainsaws...the larger one, a 455 is ~25 years old, starts immediately and runs flawlessly. An old enduro riding pal swore by them (He had a 300 cc 2-stroke that was a torque monster. I vividly recall riding wheelies the entire time I'd take my son out...

Proven winners: IMR 4350 for the '06 and RL15 for the 375 (w/ CCI primers)

Anything Nos PT, Swift A-Frame 180, or even better...anything similar in 200-220 gr. I believe even Rem has 06 ammo for sale w/ 220 grainers (v. popular in AK. My son just saw a pile at a Sportsmen's Warehouse down S.) He will NOT be disappointed by using heavy-for-caliber bullets (high SD...

Big cased 300s, 338s, same in 358 (all using heaviest for caliber 220 & 250 gr), 375, 416 or 458. There are maneaters ready to visit you and your kill site. Being allowed to carry a sidearm (a la AK) would allow for other choices. Brown bear were everywhere on our trip to AK/BC/AB One kid...
