The last thing I want to be thinking about is my wallet, when I’m stalking an animal. Not a fan at all of this. Fixed fee and let the chips fall where they may.

That would be a great thing, to have your dad be able to take an elk with the Lancaster. Congratulations to buyer and seller, this will be a good investment (for lack of a better word)

Glad you liked it @Troubleshooter!

I suppose that most who graduate to Master level, will be able to build one themselves. At least that’s what I would do

Although I have nothing against trying, I do think that .416 Rigby Vereecke is a deal I will not likely surpass any time soon. (Although there is also the Dumoulin Centurion and the Heym…)

The best venison I ever had, was a slow cooked leg of Chinese Water Deer.

And also a very fascinating topic as well. One that attracts my attention quite often too.

I have never blocked someone, for any reason, on principle I just do not like shutting out one part of different view points, but having 30 something pages filling up what was otherwise a place with interesting conversation is just a bit too much for me.

Thank you very much for taking the time to write this excellent in memoriam of your mentor @Hunter-Habib . What a life he lived!

This one statement told me just about all I need to know.

Wiadmannsheil @Mark A Ouellette ! Superb story and hunt! Thanks a lot for sharing with us. So, was this elephant one and done, or has the virus of elephant hunting taken ahold of you?

Obviously, 2hp trumps 1hp

One step further still: those who would claim any practice is incomparable and too artificial to be of any use in real life situations, should only look at the difference between the Russian conscript thrown into battle after a half day of training and a US military soldier having gone through...

Well I thought this morning that this thread could not get any worse, and @Carnivore hunter managed to prove he can stoop even lower. Which is a shame, as there was some interesting info coming from our resident bear hunting professionals.

Waidmannsheil to all involved! An elephant bull dreams are made of!
