I have used Halliburton suitcases for years, but lately they just don't hold up. Locks get broken, and the cases get so distorted - if you manage to get them open, they won't close again. Part of the problem is the locks are exposed, and the newer cases are awfully thin. What hard, lockable...

Just heard from Chris at Heym USA, my 500NE Double is complete and ready to ship - now the real wait begins.

I am in the process of filing paperwork for my transit through SA next month. The folks at riflepermits.com are processing the form and required copies of my 4457's and actual photos of the rifle serial number to verify the info. On the 4457's I list: Make, Model, Caliber, Serial Number Both...

What is the best process for removing flesh/hair/etc from a raccoon skull, and prep for display? Thank you

We have started what, hopefully will become a suitable trophy room. Rather than construct a stand-alone building, we opted, since there are only two of us in the house, to take a couple upstairs rooms and combine them into a trophy "space". Two closets and a bathroom were removed from a...

I recently purchased 2 Thermion scopes, an LRF XL50, and an LRF XG50. I have downloaded both the Stream Vision and Stream Vision 2 apps for my phone. I have managed to get both scopes synced, and my question is: is there a way to not have to go through the entire wifi on, bluetooth on, sync...

Any advice/suggestions on a good quality portable bench rest? We've got pigs and coyotes coming into our new pond and I am taking measures to eliminate them. I've ordered a steel trap, and purchased a Danial Defense DD5V4 AR and a Hill Country Rifles Pathfinder Predator bolt action, and...

I am looking for an effective rifle, scope, suppressor combo to deal with some wild pigs which are making their from my neighbor's property onto mine. I've ordered a steel "drop trap", but in the mean time, I'd like to try shooting some at night. Here's a list of some of the basic calibers I...

I have a leopard hunt booked for June/July of 2025 (hoping to complete the Big 5) in Mozambique. As it appears JNB to Tete is the only viable option, I am looking at options for DFW to JNB. In the past I have flown thru both Doha and Dubai on QATAR and Emirates. There is an American/British...

I've noticed some of you referencing 45-70 caliber ammo and rifles. I was going through one of my dad's old gun safes and decided to see what was in the back row. There were some old Springfields, a couple Sharps, and a Winchester-Hotchkiss; I figure some of you might know something about this...

I have decided to build a trophy room and am in the basic layout/size calculation phase. Are there some basic numbers to calculate space requirements for typical mounts. Here's a list of what I have or have coming: Elephant - shoulder mount Rhino - 1/2 body mount Lion - full body Leopard -...

Is anyone else experiencing delays in shipments from Namibia? I have a consignment of trophies sitting, waiting to be shipped, and it seems the delays just keep increasing. For the past month it's been, "any day now". Thanks for any info

Has anyone been successful, or know of a process to export a rifle from the USA to Zambia? The rifle will be a gift.

I recently received an email from the Zimbabwe Prof Guides Assn apologizing for an advertisement which recently appeared in the DSC Show catelogue. Does anyone know what this is about? The email appeared to be directed to members of DSC.

I just changed my avatar, but it looks like I may need to select a different photo. I am trying to use a photo of my Cape Buffalo Trophy. Some of you may be familiar with it, as it has been on display at both DSC and the DSC Foundation Gala. It currently resides at DSC. We donated the...

Hello, I just found this site yesterday; I am packing up and heading home after almost 2 months of hunting in Zim and Zambia. This trip had a few disappointments, but was overall both exciting and rewarding. In Zim I got a baboon, kudu, waterbuck, a few impala, zebra, and a nice old bull...
