If someone has a lead on a Winchester 37A in 20ga please reach out. I'm looking to pick one up for when my nephew comes to visit. I know there are lots of youth options out there, I'm only concerned with a 37A. Safe travels and straight shooting to everyone this year!

Question for all the CPAP users like myself out there. What portable battery supply (brand) have you been using and are you satisfied with the performance? Seems like the batteries I've looked into are listing the usage hours being xyz without using the humidifier/hose heater but the buyers...

Have a family member looking for a set of full length dies for 9.3x62. If you have a set collecting dust please let me know. Ebay has a few but figured I'd check with the group first. Please PM me. Thanks in advance, Nathan

Looking for 20-40 casings of either Norma or Hornady. Would prefer unfired but would entertain once fired as well. If anyone knows of any local store that may have some available please let me know. Much appreciated

Hello fellow Ah'ers, With the 2023 SCI Convention on the horizon and with several members asking about a possible AH dinner I reached out to Jerome @AfricaHunting.com about the idea. I am happy to announce I have received the go ahead for the group dinner planning and several venues have...

2 weeks ago a 290kg crate was delivered to our home containing our mounts from 2021 with @TSALA HUNTING SAFARIS . We have been shifting mounts around and have finally settled on where things would go. Still working on getting the buff euro put up. When our 2022 mounts arrive i do believe we have...

Hello fellow AH'ers Wanted to reach out to those that have the knowledge and experience in regard to combining a bull ele and a leopard on one hunt. Would be great to plan for both but in my mind, you will be putting miles on the boots all day and then have to sit bait into the night. Not...

After returning last October 2021 from our hunt with the Tsala family crew we knew we had to go back sooner than later. But like most, we were patiently waiting to see if the airlines would continue flying, and if schedules would go back to being somewhat normal and reliable. What we didn’t...

Started its life as a 338 WM and had it recut and stamped to 340 Wby. Has a Nikon Monarch 3.3-10×44 AO scope with mil dot reticle. Round count is well under 200. Have my M70 in 340 already so i don't need two and i have my eye on another Heym that i keep telling myself i need. This will help...

Finally getting caught up with life and wanted to give a review of our recent trip with Tsala Hunting Safaris. As most recent reports have started, this trip was initially planned for May 2020 but the China flu hit and put a crimp in our (everyone’s) plans. We rescheduled the trip for October...

Received a PM in response to my thread looking for some ammo. As you can see from the screenshot it has a high likelyhood of being a scammer. Stay on your toes...tis the season! Jerome has been made aware as well.

Hello Folks, If anyone might have a lead on where to find some 470NE 500gr Hornady DGX/Bonded ammo or 300 H&H 180gr Hornady ammo I'd much appreciate the help locating either one. Thanks in advance!

Been a long wait but as always, well worth it. I knew I wanted to start with a 98k action and after scratching around for a while, I found one I felt was worth building off of. Decided early that this rifle would be used as a stalking rifle and as such would only have iron sites and the bridge...

Returned home yesterday and figured I would drop a few lines about the flight over/back with United connecting in Newark to Joberg. We traveled with 2 rifles in one case with initial check-in at the Nashville airport. Was mindboggling easy at Nashville. Only opened the case at the counter to put...

Starting last year I begun getting serious about taking the plunge into double rifle ownership. Spoke to several members of our great forum (thank you) on the who and where to begin. First up was a roudtrip to Oklahoma to visit with George at Champlin firearms. Great guy and by the time I left...

Any members attending the Alabama Deer Expo this weekend? We figured we would drive down and go check it out Saturday.

Looking for 2+ boxes of factory loaded Hornady 300 H&H 180gr Interbonds. If anyone knows where or who has some boxes please shoot me a PM. As always, thanks in advance!

Looking to grab a few boxes if anyone has any boxes to spare or if you may have seen some at a local spot. I've check all the usual locations and they are sold out. Much appreciated!

Any of our AH members have any input as to where and who you would go through if looking for a PG hunt with tented accommodations? Fly camp would be great but medical devices need power throughout the night so pretty much marked that option off the list. Noticed Phillip Bronkhorst has such a...

Listing this rifle for my father. I have handled it and fired it so feel comfortable doing so. At his age and current health the days of traveling are done and this rifles intended purpose will not be fulfilled so he is looking to move it. It's built on a Husqvarna barreled action. Has gorgeous...

If anyone might have some stashed away and willing to sell, id be interested. Hornady 180gr Interbonds .308.

Been handloading the Jeffery and just don't need 12 factory loaded boxes so willing to sell 4 boxes if there is any interest. It's all Hornady 400gr DGX. Groups same as A-Frames in my rifle so good range ammo. Would prefer to sell all to 1 buyer if possible. $100 a box and I'll split shipping...

Well as I put down a few lines I can't help but wonder what I'd be doing right now in Africa on our 3 week trip if the whole China virus didn't exist. Can only wonder but as some/most of us, we found a few projects, local trips and honey do requests to keep us busy and fill the void. A few...

Have a Featherweight but looking to double up and find a Super Grade III or Sporter in 25-06. Only interested in factory New Haven production CRF rifles. If you might have one in great condition that may need a new home please shoot me a PM. Appreciate it folks!

Sitting at home this beautiful sunny Saturday evening pondering what a royal kick in the teeth it is that our (everyones) Africa trip plans have been impacted by the virus. I decided to point the truck North for a few mile drive and see how the Gobblers are acting. Making the walk in I heard...

With everything going on here in the states and around the globe one can only take so much doom and gloom. So this past Thursday I came up with a last minute plan for the Mrs and I to get away from our local population within Tennessee and take a drive down to Alabama for a couple days of bass...

Postponed trips means more range time. 458 Win Mag: 17 reloads in pouches & RCBS reloading dies. 458 Lott: 4 Boxes of factory Norma PH 550gr Woodleigh (10ct), 1 box Hornady reloads, 1 box of casings. $420 shipped to anywhere in the US except California.

Finally getting around to posting a few pictures and info on the 425 WR I snatched up a few weeks ago on AH. Action is a 1909 Mauser and getting the 425 to feed properly and reliably can/is a bit tricky but Sterling Davenport knew what he was doing because after loading a few test cartridges, I...

Selling for a family member, he finally accepted that the larger bore rifles are not for him and instead of drilling holes has decided to let it go and see how a 375 suits him. CZ Safari Classic 458 Win Mag with conversion so also fires 458 Lott. Barrel caliber marking remains original. No...

Since several of us take our AH on trips around the globe I figured this falls in equipment. Thought since lots of folks don't attend the annual dinner that it would be nice to have a way to identify a forum user or atleast have an idea of whom he/she is while out and about. Think it turned out...

Good Day All We will be hosting a Meet & Greet on 23Feb from 3pm-6pm for owner/operator Rouan Nel of @Tsala Hunting Safaris at our home outside of Clarksville, TN. All are welcome, from first timers to veterans alike. If you couldn’t attend a show and have questions regarding visiting...

For those who have attended in past years, are there better days then others when it comes to attendance numbers? We have never been and figured why not go check it out, until I seen photos of shoulder to shoulder crowds. Like DSC x3 on a Saturday crowds. Thinking/hoping a Friday might be a lot...

Knew I was in trouble when my better half asked why she couldn't have a rifle built for her. No good answer other then a "yes dear". Her caliber of choice was the 300 H&H. Went with a VZ-24 for the heart of the build, Douglas AG barrel, NECG front/rear sights. Grabbed a blank from Luxus because...

Been a long wait getting the build finished up. Decided to sacrifice one of the 338's to feed a 358 Norma build. Was asked several times during the planning why I choose 358 Norma and the answer was always the same, why the hell not.. Went with a Douglas a/g barrel and NECG was once again the go...

Folks, Just an update that CBP has updated the 4457's with a new expiration year of 2022. Nathan Here is the link to the form at the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP): https://www.cbp.gov/document/forms/form-4457-certificate-registration-personal-effects-taken-abroad Or find attached...

Anyone heard or have an idea when the 2020 dated 4457's will be released based off past experiences? I know they don't expire but to same myself the pain of others lack of knowledge I'm going to have the new years form.

Anyone fly out of Nashville on Delta with their rifles to ATL-Joburg in the last year or so? Just curious if the personnel knew what they were doing with the firearms or if I can expect an all out nut roll.

Anyone have first hand experience with City Lodge or Intercontinental Hotel? Besides cost and Quills lending itself to Inter. Hotel any other plus or minus between the two? Appreciate the insight folks. Nathan

Been kicking around the double rifle purchase for the last couple years. To be honest if Winchester would have made one I would had been an owner a long time ago. After visiting with forum members whose opinion I hold in high regard I decided it is time to take a trip to Double Guns of...

Already have another set so I can let one go. Instead of selling I'd be more interested in trading for a good Africa safari book. Have Death in Long Grass and figure a trade might push me to read more. Will toss in some cases as well. Let me know if anyone is interested in the trade option...

I'm aware of the dislike of Hornady DGX by some and fully justifiable I might add. I did reach out to Hornady in reference to their new "bonded" DGX ammo now offered. My question was if the box identified new product from old or by product coding. Below is the response I received. Recently you...

Wondering if any members will be attending the Nashville convention Feb 13-17? Will be held at the Opryland hotel. Figured I'd go check it out and see if it's still growing in size.

Good Day Folks, Came across a 400 Jeffery custom built rifle and love the workmanship of metal and wood BUT it has a 2" drop at the heel. Being a collector of pre/post 64's Winchesters that have a more traditional American stock configuration, this excessive drop is hard to wrap my mind...

Good Morning/Afternoon Folks, Been doing a little research for the past couple months on a relatively low impact, cost effective hunt/fish trip that all the AH members (an families) might be interested in doing next fall (2015). Thought it may be a great opportunity to have a unique "get...

Well folks I figured I'd toss up a report on our "last minute" father/son adventure. My family and I have been fortunate to have been able to do a good amount of hog hunting throughout Oklahoma and Texas. They are great eating and also a perfect adventure any time of the year. OK, I also wanted...

Have received word that our taxidermy crates have been cleared and waiting for delivery out of Atl to TN. We used Moredou for all our taxidermy which included lifesized, shoulder and a couple rifle cases. (Outstanding communication during the process & received pictures during the process)...

We chose to have our trophies mounted in Africa and are about 30 days out from delivery (USA). Question I have is if anyone has taken the shippers insurance that is offered or if other insurance has been taken that covers taxidermy while in route to home base?

Finally came to the conclusion that I just don't need this many large bore rifles anymore. Both are new production Safari Express models. Unfired, new and will come with box ect. Beautiful rifles but like I said wont ever use them. $1150 each plus $40 shipping within the lower 48, AK will...
