    Famous Users Of The .30-06 Springfield Against African Dangerous Game

    a wonderful book about the old times in Ikoma. In Germany you can find it under "mit Pfeil und Bogen auf Löwenjagd" with "bow and arrow on lionhunt" . But he also wrote, that when the second shooter had to go home (PH Leslie Tarleton) he alone wasn't enough of a security man and they didn't do...

    What Watch do you wear when you hunt?

    I buy a cheap watch for 5-10 euros in the supermarket before travelling and then give it to a tracker as a additional gift. I learnt that they last for years. Do the same with my shoes. I wear outdoor boots in the bush for 30 euros, which I then leave in camp. For 14 days of hunting they are...

    Blaser R 93 the beginning -- a true story

    "Not sure why they are shelf warmers in Germany". It's ugly and looks more like a shotgun with insert barrels. If you can afford this price, we go to a gunsmith with the desire for a double rifle - but not to Blaser. Not for a double. @R93 Weapon detonations occur from time to time with other...

    What problems have you encountered with your Blaser R8?

    I wanted to send an AH member a die for his very German calibre (.30 Blaser). Unfortunately these wishes are without chance, everything that has to do with weapons, sorry guys. Highly enriched uranium would have been easier to send :ROFLMAO: . @nomspc : Many people don't want the R 93 because...

    What problems have you encountered with your Blaser R8?

    "FYI: I have a Blaser S-2 double in .375 H&H. It is finicky about chambering reloaded ammo, even if it is full length resized. One of the chambers is more forgiving than the other but still likes virgin or Blaser-only brass. The problem is clearly chambers cut to the minimum SAAMI or CIP...

    USA: Kodiak Bear, Frazer Lake Fall Hunt DB212

    enjoyed your story also. Waidmannsheil from Munich,especially to this barren sow. Can you say anything about the age of the bear? You were happy with the way you were equipped ? Shoes, rain and cold protection. Did you bring your sleeping bag ? Downfilled or polyester? Was it warm enough? Would...

    Politics

    Iran informed its neighbouring countries and Israel's ally, the United States, 72 hours in advance of the start of the attacks. Baghdad is also said to have been informed of the attack via diplomatic channels at least three days before the attack. If I announce my strikes, it means that...

    Any fly fishing recommendations for chasing King Salmon in Alaska?

    Thank you for the detailed report (General Miles ;)) On our television they brought a scientist from Alaska who said that due to global warming and the 1.5-2 degrees Celsius warmer sea and thus a correspondingly higher food supply, the salmon stocks are increasing in the upper reaches (I forget...
