    Safari Vehicles in America

    Rookhawk, I didn't know that you had an FJ! I've owned my 2008 since 2010 and wouldn't trade it for anything. Kurt

    NAMIBIA: Buffalo With Daggaboy Hunting Safaris Wuparo

    I hunted with Dawid in June of this year. He didn't say anything about a stroke, but he did take a nasty fall in Nashville after the SCI show. Accounts of the incident differ, but the gist of it was that he broke his collar bone and hurt his leg. He was sufficiently recovered to the point...

    Need a small temporary reloading bench

    I needed a VERY temporary means to reload while my wife and I were between houses, so I mounted a press to a wooden box and then added some "legs" of scrap lumber to keep it from tipping. The top board of the box flexed, so I threw a couple of pieces of scrap in there to hold it. I worked...

    Everything you need to know about slings and swivels for safaris and safari rifles

    Don't forget the Pachmayr Flush Mount sling swivels. With the sling removed they are the cleanest in appearance of any system. I had a Pachmayr .458 Lott on a pre-64 Model 70 with these at one time, and they seemed to work very well. But they necessitated mounting the forward swivel in the...
