Im in NY with my daughter its her birthday Ill post them tomorrow when I get a moment.

Customs in Mozambique just emailed me this week. I shot 2 monster crocs there in August. One is 15 feet 6 inches. The other is 14 feet 7 inches. The 15 footer is missing some tail and lots of teeth. He was an enormous beast in his prime. I'm wondering is it possible to replace his missing teeth...

I think you want a long range vs hunting debate. I shot my lion at 60 yards. That was close enough. I shot my hippo at 120 yards. Shot 2 cape buffaloes. One at 40 yards that was close enough. The other was 22 yards only because we lost him tracking him on a trail in tall grass and didn't realize...

Guys this is a little misleading. Zeiss IS NOT stopping the production of rifle scopes and binos. They are just moving production to another facility. The Conquest line will be made in Japan now...

Awesome!!! thanks for the info

Was it on lake Cahora Bassa? I shot 2 giants on the lake in August. One was 15 feet 6 inches the other 14 7.

Franco where did you kill or crocs in Mozambique?

Personally speaking I would never use anyone else's rifle on a dangerous game hunt just meeting them. As many have said buy a economically affordable RELIABLE 375. I have a 416 Rem mag I use for lion hunting and maybe elephant. You don't need a 416 to kill a buffalo. I've killed 2 bulls with my...

Art I'm jealous! I've been to Africa multiple time Sable is on my dream list, wow incredible trophy!

Oh that's coming. I'm going to order a 28 Nosler high gloss wood stock in the gray laminate finish. It's going to be gorgeous. I'm an old school wood stock rifle guy. But with this .35 I figured rain and bad weather in Alaska, cold and snow in Wisconsin the fiberglass stock would be sufficient.

That's a really good question I'm not sure yet.

My son is going with me to hunt plains game he'll likely be using 30.06 or a Sako .270. I'm going for leopard, eland and sable.

She will likely go on my next hunt to Africa paired with my Cooper 30.06 for leopard, sable, eland and I'm obsessed with big crocs. I love Cooper rifles. They are so beautiful to my eye and well balanced they make me look like a shooting pro. The action on this rifle feels like a Sako. I've...

Uplander thanks for the post. I shot a cape buffalo free range in Zambia on a stalk at 22 yards in 24. We lost him on a trail, came over a hill. He was laying down. The wind shifted he stood up and looked right at us. I'm not saying I want to kill a brownie at 22 yards. But I won't panic with...

Bob you just made my day sir, I just put a 50% deposit on her today. She'll be here in a couple of weeks!!! Will definitely put her to use for crocodile, eland, sable and perhaps leopard in a 26 hunt. Thank you sir!
