Hello from Bergen, Norway

[Scott CWO]

@Stig welcome to AH!

Norway looks so beautiful. My mother’s side emigrated to the USA from Norway in the 1880s. My mother has been back with my grandmother to visit family but I haven’t been to Norway yet. Hope to change that soon!

I have been a lurker her for a few months. Have learned a lot from many knowledgeable people. Hope to contribute to this great forum.

I have been a hunter and a fisherman/outdoorsman for my entire life ( just turned 50). Trout fishing/freshwater fishing and hunting for caribou an deer.

After having read a lot of books about Africa and read huntingreports in this forum a small dream of hunting Africa has been born.

There are opportunities, but I am not to familiar with them. There are a few hoops you have to jump through: pay the hunting tax and so forth. But doable. There are no proper outfitters like for instance in Africa. So your best bet is possible a help full forum member from Norway

Nice platform, that. Biggest object to ever have been moved by man

Stig, I have and enjoy lever guns as well. I have a Marlin 336 -C in 35 Remington that I've used for Deer and Hogs. I also have a Savage 99 in 308 that I've deer hunted with. The best lever gun I own is a 1936 Winchester Model 71 in 348 Winchester. Do you reload or use factory ammunition?

@Shootist43 : Factory ammunition is quite expensive in 45/70 and non existent in 356 Win So it's reloads all the way. I cast my own bullets as well. I must say that I am a lite bit (or a lot) envious of your Winchester Model 71! This is my grail gun! Or one of them at least A Savage 99 is also on my list of guns I am looking for, but they are really scarce in Norway. And import from USA is very expensive.

G'day from Australia,
Your African dream might become reality, it was my first and only international trip so far.
Hunting Hogs in Sweden sounds interesting.
Warthogs in Africa are satisfying too if it's pigs you hunt.
