    I have a bunch of reloaded ammo. I’m taking the africa. Does it need to be in factory boxes?

    If you far flying on airlink to another country or elsewhere in South Africa, Airlink requires no more than 11 lb and they will weigh it as towards checking the head stamp on your ammunition. I don't know of another any other countries that do it but I know it is not done in South Africa that I...

    ammo box needs to go into your checked bag but according to TSA it needs to have TSA locks and make sure you have a couple spares just in case some "knuckle head TSA agent" cuts them off. make sure your case with locks does not weigh more than 11 pounds total

    .375H&H Barrel length… what say you?

    I had my CZ550 458 win mag barrel cut form 25 inches to 20 inches the loss in velocity was right at 100 fps but the gun handles great with the shorter barrel, I find I like to carry mine in front of the trigger guard, would love to put a can on it due to hearing loss also but I will not.

    sorry to hear that but for the gun to shoot that poorly after the can was installed it would have to be the can causing the issue or "the best gunsmith within 100 miles" made a mistake, it can happen to the best. have you tried shooting it without the can? did you contact the can mfg?

    Flying Delta with guns

    Delta did not open my case, (sorry some jet lag worse I have ever had)! TSA got it open as there was a TSA card inside stating so, I do not know how they got it open but they relocked it after stealing some items and the put the strap on it

    That is correct, you are supposed to be there when they open the case, violation of federal law, I have filed a complaint but will probably never go through

    here is a new thing!

    hello Phil, no everything was on in Atlanta when I arrived and left. the issue was when I got my rifle case at my final destination home that is when I found the zip tie on the case and a note inside that they had inspected it. the locks were intact and still locked and items missing from the case
