    DSC and SCI Your thoughts?

    Been to SCI and DSC many times. Loved DSC when in Dallas. Now that it is Atlanta we have no desire to go. Normally we prefer DSC to SCI. Now that SCI is in Nashville it is a no brainer for our group. Vegas we don't care for at all. But yes I can't think of a better show to go meet with...

    Any small bore double rifle men out there..?

    My experienced is the smaller the bore the more difficult to find a load that regulates. I don’t have gobs of experience but have loaded for right close to 20 doubles in the past 18 years. Smallest I currently own is in a 400/360 Purdey. Took a little time to find the correct powder with proper...

    I reluctantly sold my 577 T-REX, so I bought an AHR 600 OVERKILL to take its place

    I would never take a 600 overkill hunting. It’s just a novelty for me. Something fun to take out at the range with your buds. But on your comment, I shoot my big bore doubles a couple times a month. And always make it part of the routine to shoot with the proper shooting stance so when I’m in...

    Buck I have one from AHR as well. Very similar but it has a different brake.

    Agreed, I square up when shooting big bores.

    Tank of a Mid Western Black Bear

    Very Nice! Know that area quite well. Have killed a lot of cow elk over the years up Cottonwood Canyon, it’s about an hour and 45 minutes from Millers in Wellington. Have not been in at least a decade but the tags were easy to draw back in my 20’s and early 30’s and you could get two tags per...

    Viability of the Big Horn Armory Model 89 in .500 S&W (22" Barrel) for Cape Buffalo?

    A 500 grain Raptor at 2150 will for sure be good for buffalo. That’s what a 470 does. I’m loaded with 420 raptors at 2220 in my 450 for buffalo this summer.

    What slings are you using on your double rifles?

    Trader Keith’s when I used to use one occasionally. Have not used one in a decade now. I shoulder carry all the time now even in the US.

    Merkel 500 ne

    Had a Merkel 500 that would double as well probably 15 years ago. Had it fixed and sold it off some time later. That gun would kick the hell out of me. Not sure why, seamed to be very close to my stock dimentions.

    Bandolier for 470NE

    Never say never. We got in a bad situation with a buff we spooked in long grass. I shot it 8 times with a 470 and the PH shot it 4 times. Closest shot was 18-24" and longest shot about 10'. I had 2 in the gun and 10 on my belt. Would not like the feeling of a long walk back to the truck with no...
