Some people chase the North American 29 and I have done a bit of that myself but for me Africa has been my thing. I didn’t realize it till the trip that was to complete it for me but in 2021 I was just one animal away from completing the SCI African 29 with a Roan Antelope. Now this was over 13 safaris and 14 years of hunting Africa to reach this moment. In the 14 years and 13+ safaris I traveled to 5 different countries within the continent and all but one multiple times. Now I did complete this with a archery Roan taken in the Northern Cape of South Africa once my article on this hunt is published within SCI magazine I’ll be able to share the full story here with all of you. But for now my journey to hunt and explore all of Africa continues.

Congrats, last month or so your photo was in SCI’s monthly newspaper type publication. Can’t remember the animal, not roan, but I recognized your name from this forum

Thank you! I believe that was an Gredos Ibex. This story should be in the next Magazine publication.

Just wanted to say thanks for the excellent customer service. Ordered some 9.3x62 brass and the delivery was a little short. An email through your website Contact Us link was replied to the next day with the tracking info for the correction. Good pricing coupled with great customer service will see returning customers every time. Thanks again!

X5i scope is perfect - thanks for an easy transaction! Buy with confidence.
Made it to Augusta Georgia yesterday for a meeting, hunt bookings are looking good for 2026 and 2027, had a great time on our Alabama safari shot a rutting deer at 200 yards with 7mm PRC near Huntsville and then headed on to Butler Alabama and semi guided my first deer ever shot a very nice broken off 8 point with hunter there and spend a few days on 1100 acres hunting preserve awesome place!

I am righthanded, so not interested in the rifle, but I have a 375 RUM and 350 gr bullet loading data is very hard to come by. If you could reply with information regarding your loads I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you, Ray Boone, Leavenworth, WA

Hello - I was looking at your post from several years ago regarding the Winchester 300 H&H. Any chance you still have the lefty M70 300 H&H for sale?
Thank you, Mike
