@mdwest Dave - I had the same issue - and found a tip on another forum that worked OK - basically replace the plastic washers with metal ones.
It was pretty straightforward - try searching for 'BOG DeathGrip Modification' or similar.
I took the DSLR (Nikon D610) and 70-300 lens last time. A bit of an extra hassle, but i enjoyed the fruits of the long lens. Like others, I didn't carry it when on foot.
My mate just dropped in with some gifts!
I'm sure many on here are familiar with the series Great Hunters: Their Trophy Rooms and Collections by Safari Press.
Some impressive collections, beautifully photographed and sources of inspiration.
Thanks Marvyn - what a guy!

CZ 550 - was born a 375 Holland - now a 404 Jeffery, thanks to a Lothar Walther transplant.
Buff horn tip and Pachmayr pad added by Ross Waghorn.
It’s very accurate, feeds perfectly and seems to work well on pigs.
Good to see the GSPs putting on a good showing here (y)
Mine's loyalty has hit it's limit today - I'm out in the shed reloading like an idiot in the freezing cold, while he is inside monitoring the fire. :LOL:
Sorry @flatwater bill - I missed your reply. Thanks for assisting in the search.
The wait time with CH4D for dies will teach me patience and 'the serenity to accept the things I cannot change' :rolleyes:
My rough old G & S Holloway. From my limited research, it was probably inter-war production.
I had it out the weekend before last - still shoots straight.
And puts food on the table.

Size 2XL
Only tried on - never worn or washed.
It was just a little tight for my fat guts with a 5.11 shirt underneath. I have since bought a 3XL.
For reference I wear a size L 5.11 Tactical shirt and XL TAG Jacket.
These have elasticised sections on each side (as can be seen from the...
Havn't hunted there with family in tow, but took wife and son with me on a work trip, with some touring tacked on - not sure if your 10yo is a LOTR fan - ours was at the time and he got the Lat / Long co-ords for a lot of the sites from the films and we checked them out. Was a bit boring for...
Then there are the local legends of the Victorian Black Panther.
Everybody here has a mate, or a relation, or a cousins-ex-boyfriends-next door neighbour who swears they have seen one. :ROFLMAO:
One theory is that some US military units bought them here as mascots during WW2, and they escaped...
What a great milestone to have reached with plenty of exciting plans in place for the next phase.
Sounds like you are certainly not going to be one of those folks that 'expire when they retire'.
The .416 Rigby is a fitting retirement gift.
A great cartridge for you to bring down here and tip...

Hey @JNevada ,
My search skills are obviously rubbish - I was searching 'JayNevada' in the member list :rolleyes: to tag you in the story.
It was great share the KMG camp with you both - hope the rest of your trip went well ... for you and the luggage ;)
Sorry we didn't get you in the photo...
Germans or Americans doing the building? :ROFLMAO:
Mine is a ‘Spartanburg special’ X4 Diesel
Spartanburg sounds like a quaint village nestled in the Bavarian Apls :ROFLMAO:
- but is in South Carolina.
The latest watch arrived.
The Ashford transaction was smooth and their shipping fast.
Very happy with the Glycine for the $s.
Photo backdrop for @BeeMaa ;)
Yesterday was a bit of a taxidermy errand day.
I finally collected heads from a NZ trip two years ago. I can't say the taxidermy and shipping experience was a positive one, but good to finally have them home.
I also picked up a pair of Ringneck Pheasants I took last year - the entire...
What a great dilemna you have facing you Tom!
I'm sure you'll make, what you know deep down to be the right choice, and take the .318 Westley Richards. (y)
