    8x68S vs 300 Wea Magnum

    Find someone/a couple of people that have both calibers and test fire them. A friend has a 300 WeaMag, and the recoil is very high; he got a brake put on it. If someone is recoil sensitive, after buying a 300WeaMag is a bad time to find out. I hunt with a 300WM in Germany (largest game about...

    I have been working for the last 3 weeks and no hunting. We have a multi hunter organized hunt on Thr & Fri. We can harvest Rehbock, Schmaltier/spieser, Frischling, and Ueberleufer. I am sure we will get something.

    375 Ruger and Hornady ammunition

    I have a Heym SR-30 .375 Ruger, and I have read a lot of info on Hornady .375 ammo. I think that a lot of people have confused the 300 grain InterLock with the DGX, and used it on buff. Hornady discontinued that bullet, but you can still find them in some stores. Side-by-side, they look the...

    I haven't been on this site in a while. I love working at Hohenfels, and the hunting is great; the Hohenfels training area is beautiful. It is about 18,000 HA and has about 6,000 Red Deer. All is Bundesland (federal government land-for those not in Germany), so you have to pay the band to...

    Hunting in Germany

    Have you hunted in Germany before? I don't know any hunters in Frankfurt/Main area. I will ask around to see if anyone I know, knows anyone in that area.

    Hunter Awake

    Germany has some of the toughest animal protection laws. The German government mandates that all cloven-hoof animals are covered by a population control program by hunters. One adult red deer can do $10,000 damage to trees in one year. If hunters wipe out a population of deer in a certain...
