Pretty open as long as it was built before 1912.

Nice rifle for sure. What does it weigh in at?

I went with Richard Cooke Safaris because the guy I spoke to and booked with was the same guy who picked me up at the airport and was my PH. I had heard of him through a friend who was very happy with him and I was not disappointed.

I am not a man who is really into velocity and energy figures. I have used both on a fair number of water buffalo and cannot see any difference. If the placement is not right with either neither will the result be. I normally use solids but have used softs and both do the job well. For mine in...

Would be interesting to see what comments this received. I got a bit of a laugh out of it. He is basically saying trophy hunters are assholes but they are needed for conservation.

I had three of his videos on vhs. One of them has him sitting in front of that same ant hill talking about elephant hunting. Looks like that was a scene that didn't make the final cut. The videos were OK but not nearly as entertaining as his books.

Gizmo makes some good points regarding the law as the minimum standard. Now we just need the laws to be influenced by those who hold hunting and wildlife management dear and not those who want to stop it.

I have heard the naming of the 404 to be in line with the popular 303 as Matt stated. I always have wondered if the 04 was a significant year in its development. Released in 1905 I always thought it made sense to be named as Jefferys 1904, 400 cartridge. The 404 Jeffery.

Its a tough situation for sure. I have always thought the law to be a poor bench mark for ethics. Just as there are questionable practices that are legal there may be plenty of activities some find acceptable that are against the law. While generally I will be supportive of how others choose to...

Thanks Paul Has been some crossed wires here.

As a side note Graham Williams of Buffalo Hunters Australia passed away this week. Will be missed. Did a lot for Aus Hunters.

I guide for Leithen Valley Australia and live in the NT. You can look up their website or on face book. Trophies start at 95 sci but you would expect to get better than that. I think the big old worn down bulls make the best trophy but they generally do not score as well. Have attached a photo...

I think we need to be sensitive about what we post on face book and platforms like that. Forget the antis, nothing we say or do will change them but it is the people who have no real view either way that we need to consider. They are the ones we need to show hunting in positive way to. I see...

Bought this side lever single .22 for my son but decided to keep it. Belgian made but that is about all I know about it

I think it still is a physiological issue. I fired an ordinary fitting Zastava 375, 30 times in succession over the bonnet of a Toyota and ended up with a shoulder and arm bruised up similar to the picture but not quite as bad. I could still concentrate on the target and put the bullet where it...
