Well if we're talking two legged (birds) then pheasants, Four legged Oryx.

I don't think the math adds up. The Straits transits about 20% of the global market, right? The pipelines that were in place for years to help with this type of issue transports about 30% of the amount that the Straits. So, why are the prices this high? American airlines said they have no...

You are correct, however, the average US tourist lets them know just how little they have. It truly is a different attitude of being thankful for what you have.

If you are going to be poor, the USA is the best place to be poor. I agree about being richer than 90-95 %. I know not a popular opinion.

That is a long reach I think, broadheads kill differently than bullets. Yes, you can do anything you want with your hair. Also, would not every use a ELDX again.

You always have a choice and should not be based on the money you paid to hunt or that was the only shot you had. Not referring to you.

OOPs May bad. guess Door 3 was a bad choice?

Im going for Door #3, The cartridge length and the taper

Just like most things on this forum....a lot of them have no point. But is still a classic round and the 300 Win Mag can not do the very heavy for caliber bullets....maybe that is the point? I do like them both and have several...again no point in have more than one caliber. Do not about the...

How many, have a few but need to keep a few.

I have a 30-378 wby I would be willing let go!

I have both, but it changes the 300 H&H to something better than the new 300 Win Mag.

I was looking at the 300 H&H vs the 300 Win Mag. It really comes in as something special when using 230-240 grain bullets...only available from Woodleigh...the 300 H&H.

The DOJ has requested that the States look into price gouging for fuel. Wonder if they will apply that to the Airlines also?

I have a 1903 that was converted to a 375/338 or 375 Taylor. It is pleasant to shoot and easy to reload. No it is not a 375 H&H.

Treated a lot of UTIs in the desert due to female soldiers holding it. The ones that figured out a poncho covered everything did fine. Remember they had to have a beauty shop there also. Male vs Female never the same....ok there will always be a few....very few. My PC filter has been turned...

Was any of you who had eye surgery warned or cautioned about heavy recoiling rifles?

ok, now you are just bragging......but I love it

I know that cast bullets can become softer with age, but near heard of any jacketed bullet doing that.

This is little off subject. If I decided to rent a rifle from the outfitter, could I bring ammo for that rifle on the flight?

difficulties or the unintended conseqences?

Ok, I will be the Debbie Downer. Is this just click bait? I see threads that make no real sense, might have written a couple myself. Are these just for a bigger reaction score to move up the named rating system? What sunglasses do you wear, what watch do you wear....you get the idea. Just...

am looking at Turkish Airlines to Addis Ababa and then Ethiopian Airlines in to Vic Falls. If tickets continue I will just cancel the hunt and do something else. I don't have as much money as some on this site and I am not enamored with Africa like most hunters.

had a blaser R84 break 2 stocks in a year. Horst Blaser stood behind it and replaced them each time.

Wow and I thought everyone said that the partitions were a thing of the past???? Maybe not. Oh, I see he was just buying the Aframes:sneaky:

I will take it.

Like have medications made in China sold to the military.....our Military!

OK, this is NOT an Alpha bullet, but it is unique... the Heters Wasp. Would seem to have a similar idea of the banded bullets and pressure reduction?....Interestingm, but did shoot worth a darn.

My Wife thought she needed a house keeper to help out since we both worked. It was working out pretty good until one day I can home and the housekeeper told me she had found a loaded gun in the house, told me how dangerous that was and that she had unloaded it. It was my defense weapon. Fired...

In my house that would have ended the marriage.

And the man said what do I get for 3k photo.....none of the above. NO waits, no govt fees or forms or bureaucrats..etc. Starting to look better all the time. And your right, your kids do not want them or their spouse don't and they have to live together.

prayers for a swift and easy recovery.

OK, just looked up the 30 R Blaser....it is a beast. So as far as power and range it has it. I has shot the 8mmx68 out of the R84 Ultimate and it was a teeth rattler.

I was actually implying that due to the regulation of convergence and then the effect past that point makes almost any shot beyond that increasingly more difficult, not the caliber. Sorry, should have made that more clear.

The point is the fun factor and how cool it would be. The expense to build a double rifle would make it totally impractical. I sold my marlin 41 mag., just one of the many mistakes I have made. I don't think any double rifle shines at a distance.

I've read and watched this thread. I am beginning to think I want a small bore double rifle. At this very moment it would be in 22 hornet, 218 bee or 219.

Will be hunting with Mark Werner in British Columbia this spring. Have hunted with mark since 2002.

Any word on the investigation into this crime or is it being totally ignored by the authorities?

Unfortunately, I agree with you. This is far from over on so many levels and fronts. Hell, may not only be coming to Breakfast, but staying for Supper. We truly, have the weapons and mentality to destroy the world as we know it.

The issues in the middle east are certainly a concern, But what about the US govt. shut down? With fewer TSA agents coming to work I would think that the lines will be much longer. Would international travel be suspended due to lack of security? I know, pretty extreme.

If you cut the barrel and then added a can, what did you gain except a can?

Another big red flag is a heavy gold cross hanging outside the shirt for everyone to see. Seen more liars doing this than honest people. This is often seen with sales persons....and that is what an influencer is.

I will continue to reload just because. I am still buying components when available. Now, looking for fresh powder. Mostly, riding the Western/Ramshot wagon for now. Corporations all seem to be buckling under to the liberal financial system. When I die, there will be plenty to divide up.

Well, yes we have Swift A-Frames, when you can get them, or know someone at Swift. I agree they and the Bear Claw are the best. When was the last time a reloader got any Trophy bonded bear claws. If they are not available, the the discussion starts getting irrelevant.

Robert Copple, Art and Soul.

While at the SCI there was an artist that did both paintings and Photos. He would take the photo add paint and "improved the background with native plants" if it looked to barren. Ran about 3K, the photos were about 30x 24 inches I think. I think his name was Cupples??? He said he was going...

Some people just have a nack for being in the wrong place at the wrong time. As they say, shit happens. Good luck with the wedding and fishing.

I know this is an old thread. But just looking at the Oryx bullet and the constructions...makes me think of the Grand Slam bullet....it was used on thick skinned and big boned game then???

if still available I will take them.

I would like to see the premium bullets that Federal bought from Speers like the Trophy bonded bullets put back on the market for the reloaders
