MY first trip coming in April is alone, I have had this dream for longer than I've had kids or a wife so she understands what it means to me. We have traveled to many countries together for fun and she is good with incorporating a few days here and there on future travels to Europe but she has...

Scotland and England are amazing in parts. The wife, kid, and I spent 2 weeks doing a Harry Potter, Downton Abbey, Outlander, James Bond trip and saw amazing sights. My wife is down with me incorporating a few hunting days in trips going forward and as I heard the term in another thread I am...

Hello fellow Granite stater!

Had to wait for months and try to find one for my son, but that was because he was a minor and they don't do videos for them

My wife and I had Nexus that we converted to Global Entry without even needing to have another interview. My 12 year old had a conditional approval for about 8 months but we never got a chance to have the in person because Boston is busy. When we came back from the UK a week ago and he did the...

Nope, its a regular lesson they have. All told between the ammo and lesson it was about $250 US for the hour. It was BRX1 in .308 because I told him about my upcoming Africa trip and he tailored it to that after the driven boar. They do have a tester program where you can shoot 5 calibers upto...

The family and I took a rather epic trip to England and Scotland the last couple of weeks. We spent a day at Holland and Holland in London and I did the rifle cinema. If you ever get a chance to spend time here, take it. Even got to spend time imagining Africa soon.

This here is where the project ends I think. The rifle is super light and I am looking to actually cut it down to 16-18 inches as a light weight woods gun. With a suppressor it’s the perfect 200yard gun for here in the northeast.

One of there popped up at a gun store in my local AO. Priced just under 1500 and comes with leupold rings. I took a look at it yeasterday and it is very nice, no irons though. Does this sound like a decent deal with clean wood and good looking barrel and crown?

I've got a healthy budget for "incidentals". If that once in lifetime walks by I want to be able to take it but I am also planning the second safari already in a few years to take my son in 3 or 4 years.

This is my entire plan other than a Zebra rug. I like the look and fits in with my theme.

1 STEP CLOSER TO GOING!!!! I spoke with Jenn at @TRAVEL EXPRESS after some phone tag and had a great experience. SHe was willing to answer a lot of dumb questions and found me a better fare on United for the premium economy price then Delta coach would have been for a few hundred more. Many...

I’m a mid level collector but have a few nice pieces. My Ranger is an all around watch as you can tell from the picture. From EMS calls to bougie barbers. In our last cruise my wife suprised me by saying get the Bronze Oris big crown that I plan to take. I am imagining old world safari and...

I do appreciate all the replies, I am hoping to find a new one locally and will hit up gunbroker if needed. I do seem to be an anomlly but have not had the greatest luck there. It is also a bit more of a general observation, seems like last few years many companies made them but CZ stopped...

I am trying to find a .375HH to take on my first safari in 10 months and 29 days (not that I am counting) and the supply of current makers is coming up empty. I have tabled by Tikka conversion to 9.3 for now but there does not seem to be any new production of rifles in stock anywhere. Even...

Jimmy did you October 2023? If not I need some lotto numbers. I have had good luck with WIFI from delta on all their planes so far but its still a mix of free on TMobile and any skymiles member.

2-4 months?

After perusing the thread, is there any plans for a restock in the near to far future.

All great suggestions so far. I do have the headphones and have used them on hundreds of plane flights. Airtags are a godsend and have saved me from some possible shenanigans with a gun case. Love the suggestions and keep them coming.

I got at $50 amazon card from work as an atta boy. My safari is not till next year but are there any decent supplies for $50 bucks on amazon or just buy a copy of "the perfect shot II"? I do have the mini version.

I'm in the US so 9.3x62 rifles are a little more scarce. I have a Tikka T3 in .30-06 that has been replaced by a CZ600 LUX in .30-06 From my internet research you can just change the barrel within cartridge sizes on the Tikkas to recaliber it. Am I right or wrong, and is this something any...

Funny enough I’m already planning the second trip. I can already tell I’m going to want to take my son as either a middle school graduation or high school middle trip. So the Kudu may wait for that but I know I’ll add one at some point.

Bosveld Jacobs. The number of people, including the president of the local SCI chapter have hunted there, and I’ve met with the outfitter twice and have a good feeling. Comes nothing but highly recommended.

Pretty quick from join to this post but... I placed my deposit to go and hunt South Africa for April 2025! THe culmination of a 15 year long dream is gonna happen. My package includes 7 days with a Blue Wildebeest, Zebra, Impala, and Warthog. I may add a Kudu but have plenty of time. SO DAMN...

It was a fun time at my first DSC and am already planning on going back with my son next year. I didn't have any plans to spend money but that lasted 10 min into the show. I wanted to talk to the H&H fellows about the London shooting ground and walked by the Longshot camera guys, I will be able...

Hello all, Freshly back from my first DSC and while there I spoke to an outfitter and suggested I pop over here in addition to another site. I have dreamed of Safari for decades but always thought that it was only for millionaires with titles and land. The last 2 years have shown me I was...
