YES INDEED! Same boat here. Zambuk cannot be beat to purchase while in country, but you definitely need to take some chapstick/lip balm along.

As so many others have said, I would not think that it is the rifle. I've experienced light strikes on factory ammo of various brands. Although it can occur on any brand, I have had far fewer from the "premium" manufacturers. Two things you can do to mitigate this issue (other than the diet you...

You know…I had considered something along those lines as well…if done right, it could accommodate other accoutrements as well. But, I fear it would require the removal of too much wood. And, even after drawing some things out, I just couldn’t get anything to look right. Form always follows...

I appreciate that tidbit, too! While I am piecing this together bit-by-bit, I have another future endeavor in mind. I have a Ruger in .300 Win that has become somewhat of a closet queen. Finding medium to big bores in left hand is…rather like finding hen teeth. As such, I’m considering...

Ontario Hunter, you may consider the XS front sight with a white stripe. Very robust, as it is solid steel. Very quick to pick up and get on target. Highly visible. Here is a link: https://www.brownells.com/gun-parts/rifle-parts/rifle-sights-parts/white-stripe-dovetail-front-sight/ Another...

Thank you, zephyr! This is EXACTLY the information that I was looking for. 86thecat, I had considered something similar, as I actually do leatherwork myself. Considered somehow incorporating a pouch into a sling for it. But what if, for whatever reason I take the sling off? In the end, I want a...

Good evening, all. I am slowly but surely getting my trusty .375 H&H together just the way I like it. Rifle currently wears Talley bases with QD rings. I chose this setup so that I could use Talley's peep in lieu of the scope, if needed/wanted. Front sight is an XS white stripe blade. I really...

One more thing I’d like to add. I haven’t looked through all the replies, so forgive me if somebody else has addressed this. Shot placement is paramount. And it should be with a PREMIUM BULLET. Bonded, monolithic…it doesn’t matter. You want something that will not come apart and will...

*Note: Pelican, Garmin NOT INCLUDED. But will throw in the foam cut to this rifle, if you wish. Fits Pelican 1750. Would also throw in the shoes, if buyer interested HAHAHA

Of course I ran all over creation last night when I got home. Here is one of the rifle I happened to have on my computer. I'll see if I can dig up some more here after a bit.

Thank you, sir. That was more or less a starting point, to include all the ammo. Certainly open to discussion/negotiation.
