    For Sale Winchester 70 Pre 64 300 WBY

    At a minimum, if I were interested, I'd make sure to do a video call with the seller holding the item. To me the note looks photo shopped. I'm just north of Denver so if someone is really interested, I'd be willing to meet the seller to verify the rifle.

    Looking for 375 HH Scope to trade for other scopes

    If you decide to purchase a scope, I have a Leupold 1-6 Firedot I'd let go. Just a thought. I have another one on one of my .375's and love it.

    Arsenal add on

    I believe his name was Robert Sheen. Deceased now. Was past president of the American Custom Gunmakers Guild. Interesting feature is it has an octagon barrel with the sling ‘stud’ machined as an integral part of the barrel.

    "GO HUNTING NOW WHILE YOU ARE PHYSICALLY ABLE!"

    A friend of mine from Maryland did a pack in bighorn hunt in 2023 and took a very nice ram. Rode in on a gnarly trail 24 miles to base camp. He was 83. Last year he and I did an aoudad hunt in January and a brown bear hunt in June. In March he went to Mexico for ocellated turkey and in October...

    For Sale Leupold 11980 VX6 2-12x42 30mm Matte Firedot LR Duplex

    I'm confused. The other fellow is looking for a long range reticle which has the 2 dots below the center dot. The box for this scope shows the standard duplex reticle. Is the box for a different scope? Could you confirm with a photo which reticle is actually in the scope? Thanks much.

    My last 2 critters, an aoudad and brown bear, could not have been taken if I didn't have the Firedot. I think I own 6 or 7 of them!!

    Travel duffle bags

    I use the Sitka large and small with wheels. For my AK bear hunt last spring, since the final flight was by Super Cub, we couldn't use a hard style bag so I put my soft duffel inside the large Sitka. Kept my 'street clothes' in the Sitka and kept it at the outfitter's garage and the soft...

    Truck - what do you drive, and why?

    Flying with firearms domestic flights

    On my most recent flight, I put an Apple AirTag in my gun case (hidden in a slit in the foam). Gave me piece of mind when I could see my gun made it on the flight and also where it was in the airport for delivery to oversize baggage claim.

    I had 10x 42 EL's, sold them and got 12 x 42 NL's. Yes, there is a difference, but not a significant amount to my eyes. Best would be to try both side by side and see which work best for your eyes.

    Thoughts on the Leupold VX-5HD 3-15x44 Scope?

    I have the 3-15 w/Firedot on my 6.5. I like the scope, but it's a bit large for my tastes. Took an aoudad at 378 with it in Jan. In that scenario, the Firedot was priceless. I don't believe I would/could have taken the shot without it. Near dark, overcast with haze. I have several other...

    Can someone help me put an approximate value on my Belgium Browning .338 mag.

    From approximately 1966 to 1974, the wood used in Browning stocks, forearms, etc. had leached salt into it while growing. When you put the metal action against the wood and add humidity, it causes rust on the action, buttplate screws, etc. Often not noticeable unless the action is pulled. In...

    Trip Cancellation/Interruption Insurance & Emergency Medical Coverage

    You're right in regard to payment in the foreign country. An acquaintance of mine and wife were in Switzerland this spring.

    Can someone help me put an approximate value on my Belgium Browning .338 mag.

    If you don't mind, post the serial number. That will determine if it's a salt era gun or not. If it is salt era, any damage is often not visible unless you take the stock off or pull a screw from the pad.
