Just joined but have been following the site for a while. Lots of fantastic information and great posts and stories being shared.
Retired military (Marine), lifelong elk/duck/upland game hunter, haven't been able to hunt Africa yet, but my wife hunted Namibia a few years back. Currently focused on elk, deer and turkey hunting but planning a plains game hunt in the near future. Will be in Nashville for the show doing research/booking a hunt for next year. Wife and I will be taking the grandson to his first big hunting show, he is 11 and has been hunting dove and deer with us for the last few years. This spring will be his first turkey hunt.
Firearms wise among my rifles I own a .375H&H, one of the Whitworths from the 1980's, currently seeking for a pre-64 Winchester in 300H&H. Most recent acquisition is a .60 caliber, flintlock from Ian Pratt. Plan is to use it for Tennessee white tail and a Montana Elk this fall.

Welcome to AH, sir. Wish I could make the show in Nashville. Dates were just too far apart for me to stay in the USA for a month.
Enjoy the forum!

Take Care,
Marius Goosen

Welcome! A flintlock, BP hunt for elk in Montana. That sounds really interesting. Where in Montana? I will be doing an archery elk hunt, mid-September, in the Absaroka-Beartooth Wilderness Area around Pray, MT.

Good luck with planning your African adventure too. Lots of great information and sponsor outfitters on this site.

Plan is to hunt the mountains near the Ruby River in Madison County. We have hunted elk there many times, this will be the first time with a flintlock, should be exciting.

Hi Jon,
I saw your post for the .500 NE cases. Are these all brass or are they nickel plated? Hard for me to tell... sorry.
Thanks,
