My son has used a ‘06 on 5 trips to SA and Namibia. 165 grain bonded bullet has been successful on over 150 head of game up to Kudu, Zebra, Oryx and everything on down…trophy and cull. Last April he used Nosler Accubonds with excellent results, prior hunts Barnes 168, they seem to need the...

I transfer thru PNC bank locally to SA or Namibia…requirement for me to sit in the office, provide info…review and confirm and sign off on it…no exceptions…still make me nervous that it gets to Recipient

5 million awarded to Plaintiff, no rape just mutual?…why did she not scream, run, or fight…in a dressing room of a department store and she did nothing but keep it a secret for years. Sounds believable to me….ha!

A great lesson to be learned for the USA….IF, anyone listens.

First trip….2014. Last trip….March 2023….total 11. Skipped 2020 covid. go figure

I can assure that efficiency in ORD with firearms will blow the doors off the inefficiency of Newark with firearms. My three trips thru Newark to Ord has been the same “goat rope” each time. For ORD the be in Illinois with the strictest gun laws, traveling with a firearm is a no hassle...

Just returned thru Newark from JNB….you better have 4 hours between connections to be safe if traveling with a firearm. Such a poorly handled method of clearing a firearm for a next connection…we were on the ground for 1 hour prior to the rifles arriving at oversized pickup, no one cares. Then...

That seat is behind service area and bathroom I believe, constant activity…seat is narrow due to tv screen and food tray in the arm rest..legroom yes…unless and I have seen it the seated passenger in your row decides to lie down in the floor of the bulkhead row..yes it does happen. I quit Delta...

That OA 1 K looks like a WW II Stuka… what’s old is new…. Can not believe the Warthog is on the chopping block.

Anyone and I mean anyone that is not on a monthly review of their 401 and understands without any doubt that 401 has limitations or restrictions in trade is an absolute victim of their own willful Ignorance. So many small compansies are sold 401 programs thru their insuranance carriers that...

The 80 gr Barnes will do fine. No doubt that it will be fast and deadly. I have used 85 gr Sierra on North American antelope with excellent results, so the Barnes being much tougher would be great.

Best laugh I have had in a while….

With the comments and experiences with Trophy Shippers?….why..why why is anyone utilizing their services. Gluttons for punishment and the old , ,I will show you different. Coppersmith has a record and experience with years of service, but seem to not be a sponsor on this site so do not...

Just saw AG Merrick Garland with the Senate….thank God he was blocked from the SCOTUS vote. A true “Weenie”. Embarassment to the Legal Profession. Spineless POS.

An old adage….let everyone walk away thinking they are a winner.

Not sure if any import duty tax is levied on a scope….was told there was not a import tax on them

Apparently they have known since Wednesday, when Biden said shoot it down, that they would do it over the Atlantic on an area within the 12 mile limit..why was a salvage ship not in the area or areas anticipated? Planning on anticipation of likely shoot down locations…surely the Air Force was...

Just heard that a Salvage ship will be on sight in a couple of days To retrieve debris…So six miles off the coast and no salvage ship there for two days…Hell they found the JFK, jr plane in that time and had no idea where it was when the search began. Miley, Austin..have some…Lucy, you have...

The constant excuse for not shooting it down early on was that over the continental US the debris field would be many, many sq miles of debris, and dangerous for the populace….after seeing the “shoot down” yesterday it dropped like a rock…debris field…BS…either we were lied to or the admin has...

Used a custom barreled 280, Rem 700 action shooting 140 gr. Hornady Interbond, (with a 160 Grand Slam for a one shot kill on a Sable at 80 yds,) the 140 Interbond accounted for 30 cull Springbok, wart hogs, Kudu, waterbuck, Impala and Blesbok. East Cape, South Africa, March 2022. Long range...

Make a copy. Use it.

Champaign County..Home of the University of Illinois…left wing nesting area…County Sheriff IS NOT, going to ignore but will enforce the New Gun Ban.. of course he would, he is a Democrat Lackey, a Left winger. One of a few Sheriffs that supports the new Law…the Illinois Sheriffs Organization...

Well…Merrick”milk toast”Garland has appointed a Special Counsel for Biden’s Classified Document Portfolio. Robert Hur …..from a DC Law Firm. Swamp?

Over 60% of the county Sheriffs have publicly by letter state that they Will Not enforce the law in violation of the second Amendment. OK Governor…you talk the talk, try walkin the walk. You may have bitten off more than you can chew.

The Illinois Supreme Court of 7 consists of 3 men, 4 women, all but 2 are from the North of I 80 corridor…Chicago area. All but 2 I believe are liberals, and as such probably will ignore the second amendment, being that it is irrelavent in today’s crime ridden society, as per their opinion...

Cook County…Chicago has had the most strict gun laws anywhere in the USA….how has that worked out weekend after weekend. The new law was passed on Democrat votes in a Super majority House and Senate…three times more legislators north of I 80….Chicago and surrounding counties…than all other...

the Price list is posted on their web sight ….Afton Safari Lodge.

After 10 trips to SA and always stayed at Afton, but with their current increase in pricing I will overnite at Citi Lodge in 2023 for much less and use the difference for additional tip money.

I heard a Horror Story from a fellow hunter I spent 10 days with in Namibia regarding TS handling his one and only experience regarding his shipment in February….a true Dog and Pony Show. My personal experience with 5 shipments having Coppersmith, Chicago handle everything. Painless and...

I’m downstate Illinois….we are red in my county but can not overcome North of I 80. Just was shocked with the PA out come…lost Toomey to a flip, with Oz being a carpetbagger pushed by Trump, had a slim chance…the outcome was handwritten in stone that it would be flipped one way or another…no...

I stand corrected…mistaken that I believed the Republicans were at 48…still trying to recover from the loss in Pennsylvania. TTundra..thank you for catching my error.

IF..Warnock wins, the Dems have a 52 to 48 advantage…if Manchin and Sinema vote no on a bill then 48 Republicans vote no…it settles at a 50/50, so The Kamala votes to break the tie and it ends at a win for the Dems…the filibuster is in jeopardy.

With an exceptionally solid rest I am comfortable and confident to 500 yds…280 or 30 06. Using Leupold cds max to 14x….have pushed this range in Africa on cull hunt to 480 yds with success, but not often if given a choice.

At my stage of life in this changing world I have worn on my last 11 trips to Africa a……ready, drum roll please….a Timex Expedition…$30 t0 $40 on Amazon….nylon band and best of all the face lights up with a push of the stem when you wake up in the middle of the night because you are are still on...

I used Lori in the past and now Jennifer with very good service and follow up to any questions I have had. Once in JNB. Mr. X has taken care of everything from there on. Travel Express has been and will be my Go To in the future.

Seems that the more worn, dirty and rough checked luggage gets a pass from the would be thief…they can not imagine anything of value in something so worn. The Versace, Filson, Orvis just scream…open me first..anything of value save for ammo, goes into my carry on back pack…went thru EWR last...

So Kamala resigns…Biden appoints Newsome…Senate approves the appointment ( Democrat Controlled Senate now, without a vote to break a tie since the VP, which has resigned and is vacant from breaking a tie)….Biden resigns and Newsome becomes POTUS, then runs as an incumbent against DeSantis...

Extra copies of everything…

Perfect shotgun for the pheasant hunter. Can not believe it is not sold. Oh…probably because it is not plastic stock and camo. Ugh. Nice shotgun to be appreciated by the Senior generation.

I have used Coppersmith in Chicago..OHare…four imports…no issues, smooth from Door to Door. Your shipment lands at one of the airports, ATL, ORD, Dulles, Newark, etc. Coppersmith clears and arranges land transportation to your door.

These SS funds were never segregated, but only on paper, so the actual $$ paid by the employee and employer were commingled and spent. An IOU to all recipients financed by future generations. Means testing for future payouts is on the Horizon, already exist with Medicare. Warren Buffet...

Gavrillo Princip, a Black Hand Nationalist…Serb…assassinateld Archduke Franz Ferdinand and his Wife, the Archduke was next in Line for the AustronHungarian Throne. This assasination “ started the ball rollin” for theGreat War to end all Wars.

That clearing charge is ludicrous. 400 to 450 max. Coppersmith..google them and call their office in Atlanta, I have used them in Chicago…excellent service.

Will this dead horse never be beaten enough? Tip what you are budgeted for and move on…you will never be the least nor the highest tipper ever….the staff probably will not remember you two months after your departure, nor the tip you give.

Of all airports one would believe that Ohare, located in the most unfriendly gun state of Illinois would be a PIA clearing customs with a firearm….Not….the easiest, no hassle of any airport that I have flown in or out of, including ATL..dog and pony show, Newark…not bad, but ridiculous time...

Just returned from Namibia thru Chicago to Doha on to Windhoek…used the apple air tags on my rifle and checked bag. Checked the location on my I pad….worked like a charm. Would recommend them to any one…about 30 dollars each on Amazon. Identify each airtag with a name and track them thru...

Justin is a class act….

I have hunted with Lalamanzi…good operation

Namibia now allows a maximum of 100 rounds per rifle/caliber per hunter.
