My 4457 experience was extremely good. Officer looked at my paperwork asked if he could correct what he thought might be an issue. Retyped it had me sign he signed then looked over my items to insure serial numbers matched.
I enjoyed his African dispatches his series on tv from what I’ve seen has also been enjoyable. I’m all for increasing interest in our sport which I believe he has done.
Upcoming trip could have likely purchased any number of new cartridges that do something different better or more efficiently, I went with 7mm REM Mag. I reload it gives me what should be excellent performance comparable to this new cartridges with 60+ years worth of data and components.
Capstick wrote of the zoo one as well as accounts of elephants being labeled as having ate humans as a result of carrying a limb about in the mouth. Iirc the theory generally (except the zoo) was they didn’t eat the person but had something of there’s held about like a limb in the mouth and as...
@rookhawk I’m not saying they or the score system should be abolished. Can’t say one way or another on that subject. I think the end game is simply getting more people to see the light on the benefits of the system. We will never have total support. I think the other points you make is sound...
Understand and when put in that light very poor choice to spread the message, someone else can spread the message I simply used them as there kind of the big one as a result of years doing it. While it may look like SCI doesn’t care about more then money to the average joe. Ive seen first hand...
It may have been said by others in the thread. However if we truly wish to combat these things we need to have education campaigns of our own to combat the lies and attacks they perpetuate. It’s not enough to give the information that what we do helps conservation or feeding villages after the...
I wear Danners daily myself. The “Acadia” style with vibram soles. I have three pair two of Ft. Lewis for work that get rotated and one for home/hiking/hunting. My pair for HHH use are Canadians the next will likely be the grouse model dark brown with khaki gortex where my current are all...
Beautiful ActionBob. Looked for one for some time and when they discontinued It didn’t appear they had any in the supply chain that day cause no one had them in stock I saw.
Ruger made the M77 on the 9.3 I believe there’s a couple on GB in the 1k range been looking at one myself.
ETa: Just checked there’s still two on there. African models wood and blue 23” tubes both listed as new. I have no affiliation with either. Not sure if acceptable but there’s the links. If...
I’ve got a 10ga 3 1/2” SxS and would settle for some quality loadings similar to those that would have been found when 10 and 8 bore was used as stopping guns. Mine started out as a 32” gun that was shortened with new beads installed. Couldn’t find anyone who could install rifle sights from my...
I love my CZ550 in 375 great heavy low recoiling medium bore with a nice crisp trigger follow up shots are great. I would recommend practicing with some good heavy loads to get a feel for it to me it is simular to a trap load in a coach gun. Mine came with good quality straight grain walnut that...
I have to say thank you to all. And to everyone warning about the addiction. Don't worry I've already been thinking about jumping up. Thought maybe going to 458 Win mag. Just because of the classic caliber. Plus I won't have to buy yet another type of brass lol. I'd really like a double but...
When ordered through my local shop it was ordered as a American Safari. I saw pictures of some with cross bolts and some without. When it showed up it was that rifle. I am very happy with the rifle it's far nicer then excepted. The wood I think is very nice. Fit and finish is exceptional. Only...
Thinking first blood will have to be a little closer to home. About six hours on the road and I can shoot Russian boar. Hunts are priced very affordably and it'll give me a chance in the closer future to use the rifle. Though I sure would like to cross the pond. If I could only find a winning...
It finally arrived today. I'm now the proud owner of a 550 in 375. Figured I'd give a Unboxing review.
Box was rather plain brown cardboard with a Gal shooting a CZ rifle on the lid. When I opened it up the rifle was packed well within styrofoam and wrapped in oiled plastic.
The rifle had...
Not sure what a Viper would eat but a small rodent being striked at makes a very impressive mount which doesn't require much space.
I apprenticed to do taxidermy when in high school for about one year. When I started my teacher had just completed a rattlesnake striking a fox squirrel very...
Seems like the majority of folks like 4350. I shall give it a try first hopefully it suits me as it has you gentleman. Thank you. Also will give Norma brass a try don't mind to spend money if I'm getting a high quality product.
Thank you all very much I appreciate the help greatly. Will let...
