    Hunt over water; Shoot from truck

    The limitations are what you put on yourself or have others influence you. Tell you my experience. I shot two of my animals off the back of a safari vehicle. I shot 4 others stalking on the ground. The two shot off the truck was after a long day of stalking with no shots. On the way home, an...

    Extended vs regular chokes

    It's a more gradual constriction. It gives you a better pattern than flush chokes most of the time. But, you always have to test pattern your loads before hunting.

    .270 for plains game? Should I be scrapping it?

    Well it is not African but I asked my Newfoundland Canada Moose Outfitter if the . 270 was enough for Moose and he said with a bullet like Nosler Partitions, definitely. So I guess it's good for all the animals you mentioned because that are about 1/2 the size or less.

    First time big game hunter - should I start with an African safari?

    A South African safari is a great choice. Reasonably priced too. You can take several animals for the same cost of a Whitetail hunt in US or Canada. If you are not interested in trophies, look for cull hunts. Lots of trigger time for cheap.

    Which Shotgun for buckshot ?

    3.5" has become less relevant with the development of " hevi shot" ammo. You can use smaller shot and get better penetration and pattern density. Why deal with that amount of recoil. I still use mine. It's mostly useful for large steel shot when hunting waterfowl and won't break the bank in high...

    Why all the 6.5 Creedmoor Hate?

    Maybe it's because it was hyped too much. Bottom line is the ballistics is not much better than rounds that have been around for decades.

    They are fighting for our rights? Yeah, and lining their pockets at the same time. Did they really care about our rights or just the bennies.

    NAP Verdict SS Broadhead Test

    Looks like a lot of other rear deploying mechanicals. Not the most durable though.

    Which Shotgun for buckshot ?

    You need to read posts much more slowly. I said in the field, one or two shots is hardly noticed. Of course, many shots take a toll no matter what the gauge. Why can't you accept that people may have different experiences than you. It's not a matter of right or wrong. Opinions are not facts, but...
