Ready for the hunt with HTK Safaris!

The Arsenal AK's are the gold standard of production AK's. I have a few and they are extremely reliable and efficient. If you have ever wanted an AK, this one to consider at a fair price.

Ready for the hunt with HTK Safaris!

As @WAB stated, Shootingtargets7.com is a great source of information and has some great deals on steel targets, rubber hangers, and stable stands. If you get on their email list they often run specials on targets. I have shot at hundreds of DG rounds at AR500 steel plates, and if you stick to...

I don't think my post had anything to do with "good" or "bad" elk? The point of my post was to say that without spending large sums of money to hunt elk every year, most will only get a couple chances in their lifetime to have a coveted elk tag with the potential to shot a trophy elk, and when...

I've shot both Burchell and Mountain Zebras, and my answer is I like all of them. Each hide is unique, and that's what makes them interesting. Looking through the herds to find the one you like best is the fun part of hunting zebras. In contrast to the original post, one of the darker zebras I...

While attending the Western Hunting Expo in Salt Lake City, I stopped by the Swift booth and spoke with their representative. He mentioned that once they returned to their shop, they planned to add about 100 boxes of 300-grain .375 A-Frame bullets to their website. He estimated they would be...

We saw all 5 in the same trip to Timbavati on the border with Kruger National Park. There happened to be a leopard in a tree outside of camp when we drove in the first day. That is the only leopard I have seen outside of hunting them. The other area we saw all 5 including a lot of black rhino...

With any luck you will be in the elk for a chance at a close shot, but a 300 WM with a 180 grain bullet will be plenty out past 500 yards. At 8-9 pounds loaded with a scope it will be a little jumpy so get used to it, shoot it, and be ready when the time comes. I have two rifles I use for most...

I was just passing on the link and information. $1,429 was MSRP, if you can find one, I am seeing closer to $1150 on the shelf. Looks like a fun little gun not just the standard everyday 22 Hornet bolt action rifle. I'm not ready to go out and search for one, but if I was at my local store and...

Funds sent for dies

I will take the dies and the crimp die. Pm sent

I agree with @Altitude sickness Altitude, there are so many variables when hunting elk. The biggest variables being location, time of year, and what your goal is for the hunt. To add to his thoughts. Elk hunting in Utah spans from mid-August through December, with minimal breaks between...

I will take the solids. PM sent

I've used suppressors on every plains game hunt I have participated in with calibers up to 375 H&H. The PH's all encouraged it and were certainly happy we had them along. On my dangerous game hunts the same PH's seemed to prefer no suppressors. Most of us used double rifles and it wasn't an...

GLWS. I have a few of these and they are great scopes for a deer or elk rifles where there is a potential for longer shots.

Only if you try to download to sub-sonic levels. :p

Looks like MSRP will be $1,429 Lipsey's Exclusive Ruger 77/22 22 Hornet

I also use the hybrid 46m on several larger caliber rifles and typically leave it in the full configuration. If you wanted to keep it shorter and lighter, the short configuration would be enough to take the edge off of the muzzle blast. I would stick to direct thread options for the mount as...

It is an extremely simple way they connect to each other. It uses a single bolt to tighten what amounts to around a 2-3 inch steel sleeve around the barrel. I don’t see how it would loosen over time.

Happy to answer any specific questions you might have.

Sold mine not long ago on this site. They were great, easy to change the barrels in the field. Use quick detach rings from Tally to mount the scopes and it is easy to use a 1-6 on the Lott and 3-18 on the WM. They are not cheap, but a pleasure to own. Definitely stick with common calibers and...

Having spent considerable time hunting elk in the western U.S., I've found that, much like hunting in Africa, there are many cartridges that can get the job done. From my experience, it's important to be ready for shots up to at least 500 yards. I prefer sticking with 30-caliber cartridges such...

Your display looks great! I have been thinking about something similar to this for one of my buffalo. Would you be willing to take a picture of the back to show how the skull is connected to the base?

I no longer own this rifle or case, the entire package sold last year to a member of this forum.

I have used the mantis with both a pistol and the AR-15. The pistol system I have is the Mantis X10 and it provides great feedback to correct/improve your shooting, the drawback is you have to manually reset the slide each shot, so to put a string of shots together is not easy. The Blackbird...

It’s difficult to pinpoint exactly what happened with your rifle based on the couple pictures you posted, and I’m not suggesting that this is the cause of your issue. However, I’ve seen a similar situation in person at a range. The shooter was using a large-caliber magnum, though not quite as...

Pictures would be helpful. While it is not quite the 460 Wby, my 416 Weatherby Mark V came with a Buehler 1-piece base with split rings and they have held up very well over time. The original owner mounted the scope and shot it extensively in Africa in the 90's. I have taken it to Africa twice...

I would think you could find a great example of a Dakota with upgraded wood within your budget.

I currently have a couple Dakota's and have owned several others. Most were earlier production Dakota's, all had very good craftsmanship, and I have not experienced any issues with function. I don't have any experience with the new Parkwest guns, but imagine they would be similar quality. If...

I haven't purchased from @krish, but i have sold a rifle to him. The transaction was very smooth and I would do business with him without a second thought.

@Jawsnclaw was a great buyer and easy to deal with, great from my end.

As someone who used a happily and successfully used a Rocker Chucker for almost 20 years, there is a large and noticeable upgrade going to the Area 419 Zero press. It has sped up my reloading and increased the overall quality of my reloads.

Looks like the 416 400 grain's are back in stock as of this posting.

Still available: 325 WSM - dropping to $3.50/round + shipping or $420 for all (128) including shipping to CONUS 460 WBY - dropping to $7.50/round + shipping or $500 for all (67) including shipping CONUS

240 WBY is Sold

You are welcome, as you look if you have any questions let me know.

No matter where I’m hunting, I bring my Gitzo Series 5, 4-section tripod paired with a Wimberly gimbal head and Arca plate clamp. This setup weighs 7.25 pounds, but it doubles as a solid rifle rest if needed. Some may argue it’s too heavy, but as I mentioned in my earlier post, it’s crucial to...

Thanks for the heads up, picked up a few.

For LPVO I prefer a clean duplex reticle, illuminated is nice to have if the need arises, but not necessary especially if you buy quality glass.

After making the adjustment to the ring base, I didn’t have any issues with my scope when firing the rifle. It was a fairly simple fix.
