That time of year muck boots and some times flip flops when field hunting.

450/400 shows in stock. He said the 450 shows incoming.

Where are you seeing it on Midways site? Other than ammo I could never find the 450 brass listed.

Bonded bullets?

Have y’all produced any of your bonded bullets since the purchase of NF and moved the equipment? Or are you working on the mono bullets produced on a screw machines first?

I don’t think so? Dave Langerman can chime in if he wants. Last hunt I did was with him. It doesn’t take too much time to get off 6 shots.

If they are moving I’m still shooting. All goes down in less than a minute. I don’t wait for them to fall over.

Good job getting it done! I keep shooting if they are moving and sometimes I get some fun poked at me for it but I don't care. Last Buff hunt I did was this past June, 19 shots for 3 bulls. But I love shooting doubles and sending rounds down range. My routine for practice is in rounds of 6...

Hardly nothing in what most people want in lead bonded bullets. 458-500's, 375-300's, 410-400's, etc. Have not seen them in stock for several years now. Possibly since Northfork sold and moved out of the US.

Why keep posting adds when you don't attempt to answer members questions above? Where can we actually buy your bullets?

These pures my favorite Bincs of all time. Have the 8x32, 10x42, and 14x52. Incredible.

I snagged a set new in box last year for $2k and that was a great deal. Beware.

Look for an OTB suppressor. That would really make that rifle a dream to carry in the bush.

Got it! Thanks for clarifying. Love seeing all these guns you’ve been picking up.

Do you worry about gun fit much or just more interested in condition? I’ve personally found very few vintage guns in my almost 20 years of buying double’s the fit me properly that I have bought. Only 11-12 if my memory is correct.

And delta buisness class is no comparison to Emirates. You said Zim or Moz. You can go direct Dubai to Harare on Emerites which is a huge plus to not have to bother with Joberg at all.

Spotting their shot through the scope is what most of them will say. And more accurate.

Seams to be going that way. There is a really large forum on western hunting and the amount of people that have killed deer, elk, moose, and bear over there is stagering with a 223 or the various 6mm cartridges is staggering. There is one thread with thousands of post mortom pics. I don't get...

Sounds good, was just wondering as I did them once and much prefer Africa Sky and been with them at 10+ times. One trip I stayed there 3 different times as I would coming and going on separate safaris. Africa Sky is 7-10 minutes from the airport and Gilbert works miracles at the airport when...

Just have to ask. I’ve done Afton once. Have you done Africa Sky?

I stayed at city lodge for the first time this year. It is inexpensive and close. But honestly Gilbert from Africa Sky could get me to thier lodge just as fast if not faster. Yes more expensive but much nicer and food far better than city lodge. If that matters to you.

Most guys will load so you get a good crimp in the cannelure. We are not chasing the accuracy like in a blot gun. Good crimp is important in the heavy kickers so your bullet in the second barrel won’t start to come unseated after the first shot.

We’ve been shooting LRX’s for quite a few years along with TSX, TTSX, on close to 200 animals. They work great. Most recent is the 160’s in 7PRC. Use to use the 168’s but since the more slippery 160’s came out we have been using them with great results as well.

My local CBP office stopped allowing suppressors on the 4457 several years ago. They directed me to the ATF Form 5320.20. You can email it to them and you will recieve it back in a week or two. I've done it 3-4 times now. Pretty easy and quick.

So your fine with Michael and Sams data in regards to Dacron. Which you state was some compelling information that helped you make the decision to switch to foam. But when I bring up that I recall they also got some concerning data on 3031 that's "magical stories". Makes sense.

Why? I've had numerous blaser barrels threaded. Blaser USA does it out of Texas but quite expensive. Had Unknown Munitions thread two for my kids last year.

This use to be a thing 10 ish years ago. Last few trips I just take good newish notes. Go buy something while you’re there and your change will be the most disgusting US bills you have ever seen. I was owed $5 change last month and what came out of the till was not going in my pocket!

I’ve tried those with decent results. Was hoping you were going to tell me about a bad ass appliance for hanging in.

What do you use to age? My wife and I have been looking at different age’rs for the last couple of years and can’t commit. This is just for our home. We buy our beef in bulk as well would like to try aging deer, elk and ducks too.

Bob's in Dallas is hit and miss. I think there are at least two. One being the original. The one in Nashville right accross the convention center has been hit and miss as well.

But, “Pointy is Scary”.

Avon insect/sun cream works great. Sawyers on your clothes and also like the Avon aerosol as well for a quick top off during the day. Been my go to the last 8-10 trips or so. Have yet to have a tick on me while others in the hunting party have.

I only charge 223 and 50BMG on my giraud. Not sure what else they make. Quick trimmer but kindof pain if changing between calibers often. Classic Forster is great for the midsized Nitro's. Hederson for most things for me.

Have you been actively shipping any bullets recently to the US? We still have not found any stock in the calibers we are waiting for.

Lange is right there with Patek IMO. I’ve had a Zeitwerk Date for a few years. Nice watches!

For doubles I’ve only loaded Varget in a 577. It worked out just fine.

What appears to be a nice gentleman is excited to show footage of his first Buffalo hunt and you piss on his thread. It’s just sad.

Congrats! Ignore the Canadian comment above. For loading quickly. Once my load development is done almost every practice shot I do is a sting of 6 shots. I take one shot off the sticks, immediately come off the sticks and shoot the second shot barrel offhand. Then move/run 5-10 yards while...

They have a hand one somewhere in the $100 range. Which I have one and it’s decent. But I think that CH4D one looks like it would work better. Especially if you turn it on its side and clamp it in a vice so the bullet is standing vertical.

Have not put my hands on that. But their sister company Kahles has a 540i that is very nice.

Very interesting!! My memory of time is horrible so let me do some research and see when and where I bought my factory DGX.

I prefer plastic magazines. Lighter and queiter.

If you already staying at Africa Sky just leave the guns with them and use their VIP service for transit and the gun permit. They do a great job. So do Riflepermits as noted above. I just used them as I was not staying at Africa Sky this trip.

My 470 88b started with a Doctor red dot 17-18 years ago. That stopped working almost a decade ago and went to an RMR. I like the 1 MOA dot.

OK, Sorry Will, been busy trying to get caught up on life. Quick update requested on Hornady DGX bullets. I shot 3 buffalo over the last few weeks. 1st Buff Two Woodleigh 480, then Four 420 Raptor Followup shots 2nd Buff Two Hornady factroy 480 DGX, Five 420 Raptor Follup shots 3rd Buff Two...

Interested who does the build. I’ve wanted a 404 for 15 plus years. Doubt I would ever take it Africa unless I build a takedown. But I’ve picked up enough components over the years to be able to feed one.

No hassle. Happy to help!

Send them to me Will and I’ll get them headed your way.

Isn’t D’arcy going to be well north of $10k for this build? Like over 20k?
