    Lyman T-Mag Turret Reloading Press

    I have one of these and they work very well. I do all of my decapping and re-sizing on it, while I do all my bullet seating on a single stage. This is a good deal.

    R8 Standard Contour *Fluted* Barrel in 7 RM for Sale or Trade

    For sale or trade (preferably trade!) is a like-new 7mm Rem Mag *fluted* standard contour barrel. I purchased it used, but I can't tell if it's been shot or not. I have not shot the barrel. Appears these fluted barrels go for well over $2000 on Gunbroker. This barrel came on an R8 Jaeger I...

    Bergara owners?

    I won a Bergara Premier Highlander in a raffle at a local SCI event a few years back. 308. It's a nice rifle; it works flawlessly. Fit and finish are very good. A little picky on what it likes to shoot. My rifle is the 20" barrel version that's designed to be used with a suppressor. I'm likely...

    Dallas Safari Club Convention Summary

    I attended DSC in Atlanta this year. Was supposed to attend Fri and Sat but with the weather Fri, we ended up just driving down and back on Sat. I live just outside the metro area. Road traffic on Sat was much lower than a typical Sat in the Atlanta area. Saturday at the convention was much...

    That's my fault and I apologize! I'm still game for a meet up in Atlanta at the DSC show.

    DSC 2025 get together

    I'll be at DSC here in Atlanta. Would love to get together with fellow AHers. Is it just me or is TTHA/SCI doing a competing event in Dallas the same weekend kinda crappy? Those of us outside TX have always supported the event in TX, but now that it's in Atlanta for a spell folks are...

    SCI Insurance company no longer insuring guns

    This is a great alternative. I've used them for several years and they are top notch. Haven't had a claim yet, hope I never do. But the coverage is very good and the price seems reasonable.

    Delta vs United (higher end economy)

    This is exactly what happened in ATL when we returned on Sat on DL201. The elevator to the little glass room where you normally collect your rifles was broken, so we did it where the naughty folks get sent. They checked every serial number versus your 4457 and sprayed down every boot. We landed...

    Wheels up on Sunday

    Follow-up. Easy check-in in ATL and permits were waiting on us when we arrived JNB. All went well and it was a great trip!

    Wheels up on Sunday

    Headed back to Cheetau Safaris and Limpopo on Sunday. Will be on Delta direct flight. With my father, younger son, and three buddies in tow this time, so very excited. I've been by myself the previous 4 trips to SA. Question: I used a well known company to assist with pre-approved rifle...

    Is Blaser Trying To Price Themselves Out Of The American Market???

    Both of the Blaser R8s I've hunted with in the UK were threaded and wore a suppressor. I also don't understand why threading isn't ubiquitous on the US barrels. I'd guess most folks who can afford a Blaser can (and have) negotiate(d) the suppressor acquisition process.
