Australia for Retirement?

Whelen was the Commanding Officer at the Franklin Armoury at the time either he or staff member James Howe, developed the 35 Whelen. Whelen had access to all the info on foreign cartridge developments, both military and civil. The 35 Whelen is likely nothing more than a copy of the 9.3x62 re-dimensioned to the 30-06 case. US case law at the time didn't recognize IP theft .
I'm a fan of the '06 case.
 
For cost of living, here is the most advance and complete link on the web. And it’s free:
And it's free, that seems like a misleading start to the question. :)

I have been watching this Australian archery shop owner, and I will try to complain less about being next door to the US in Canada (the complaint being you can see it in the shop window, you just can't have it).

I've wanted the whole lot of them... In particular I used to look for the 338-06, but no luck in Canada. Never quite showed up in the right format. 25-06, 270, 30, 338, Whelen. Then I think why not a 9.3x62, a 35x62, a 338x62... Indecision. I am actually downsizing a little bit (code for buying new rifles more slowly).

I have been using a "Personal Property" rider on my State Farm homeowner's policy to cover guns when I travel with them.
I have several firearms, but only one is worth over $20K (A Heym double rifle).
Very interested.
Would firearms be covered for damage, as well as, complete loss?
I'll can let the State Farm rider cover my watches...

trperk1, I bought the Kimber Caprivi 375 back in an earlier post. You attached a target with an impressive three rounds touching 100 yards. I took the 2x10 VX5 off and put a VX6 HD Gen 2 1x6x24 Duplex Firedot on the rifle. It's definitely a shooter curious what loads you used for the group. Loving this rifle so fun to shoot. Africa 2026 Mozambique. Buff and PG. Any info appreciated.
