    For Sale CZ 500 Jeffery

    I've made the hard decision to sell my CZ 500 Jeffery. The rifle is in good condition. I carried it on a deer hunt or two for kicks, but it has been babied. The stock is nicer in person than the pictures show. The rifle has been fired very little and I've had no feed issues running Kynoch...

    Are there any gun shops worth checking out in Jacksonville, FL?

    I'll be in Jacksonville visiting family for a couple of days. Are there any gun shops worth checking out? Particularly any that stock larger caliber sporting rifles. I'm not really interested in the "tactical" type shops catering to the AR crowd (I own enough AR's for now). Thanks.

    375 H&H die adjustment

    I resized a batch of 375 H&H cases last night and I'm getting a very slight bulge in the neck, just before the shoulder. The empty cases still chamber with no problem. These are Federal nickel cases. I've been loading for over 20 years and never run into this. Do I have my full length...

    Peep sight recomendation?

    I'm looking for a recommendation for a Peep sight for my Interarms Whitworth 375 h&h. I'm going to be putting one of the necg ghost rings on my 500 Jeffery soon and would like to find something similar for my 375. The receiver is tapped so I would like to find something that will screw right...

    Cleaning and dreaming today

    So I was sitting around this morning while the kids were still asleep and decided to wipe down some of my rifles. After handling my 500jeff, 416rigby, and 375h&h I got to thinking that i'm overdue for a trip to the range. Since the kids were with me today that was out of the question (too...

    500 Jeffery

    Before I spend the money, can anyone tell me if the new Woodleigh manual or the Norma manual include loads for the 500 Jeff? I tried searching online for a list of calibers covered but no luck.

    Benedikt Winkler double

    I looked at a Benedikt Winkler double today. The rifle is in 30-06 and has claw mounts with a scope (which needs to be replaced). Do any of you double experts know anything about this builder? All I know is Austrian but I have no idea what the age of the rifle is. It is a heavily engraved...

    CZ 550 stock

    I have a CZ in 416 Rigby with the Euro style stock. It fits me like a glove. The sights line up perfectly and the length of pull is perfect. I'm now looking at adding a 458 Lott to the collection. I've been looking at the American stocked CZ. Having not held one in hand I'm hoping someone...

    Greetings from South Louisiana

    Just wanted to say hello. I've not made it to Africa yet (still saving up for my first trip). I have a pretty good personal library of books on Africa. According to my wife there can't be many I don't own. I enjoy many hobbies, mostly outdoor related. Some of them are traditional archery...
