Anyone seeing or receiving approval from the USFW on their elephant trophies from 2019 or later?
 
I met with the woman who clears my shipments at the DSC Convention and she had a list of 20 elephants which had just been approved.
 
Great! You wouldn't happen to know if they were from the backlog of 2017ish and earlier or more current? What company is she with?
 
She is with Pro Cargo. She did say they were from about 4 years ago and they were all from Zimbabwe and Namibia.
 
I think lhook7 is referring to Cindi Rulon at Pro Cargo - just give her a call for that info, she's very nice. Welcome to PM me for her direct dial.

one of my Hunters took a Bull with us in Zimbabwe, in 2020, a week before the bug lock down. His Ivory arrived in the Usa 2 weeks ago.

Awesome! Did you provide him an Operator Enhancement Report to include with his import permit application to USFW? Where in Zim did he take it?
 
I definitely talked to Importers at DSC who said they're getting in, but like lion most of the hunters are keeping it quiet. But interested to see what info shows up here

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
