I may be going out on a limb here but I think I have it figured out.

I am planning to go to SA next year for a handgun hunt. I will have 2 contenders, one with a suppressor and my wife will have a revolver and a bolt action rifle. Because the handguns don't take up much space, I want to put all 4 firearms and suppressor in one case. Is that allowed if I have the 2 contenders on my 4457 and she has the bolt action & revolver on her 4457?
I know the US allows temporary export with up to 3 firearms and SA is only 2 (they don't consider the suppressor anything). The suppressor transport is a topic for later. I guess my main concern is, I believe sharing a case is ok but not sure about sharing when maxing out the allowable temporary exports.

The best thing that I can tell you is to contact Henry at Rifle Permits.com, he'll have all the answers for you.

For what you will pay him for the permitting process it is well worth it.

I may have to do that. If anything, peace of mind will be worth it and I've heard great things. I think my guide is aware of him too so thats a plus.

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

An excellent AH member right here! I had a fantastic transaction with Hornedfrogbbq (I was the seller). His communication was first rate, payment was extremely fast, and I would have absolutely no reservations at all dealing with him again. Thank you, F!
