I've been looking all over the internet and also called a few local stores and cannot find Remington or Norma brass. Same for Federal 215 primers. Would anyone have 200 brass and/or 200 primers they would sell? I do have an extra box (50ct) of 225 grain Swift A-Frames that I could trade...

I am not a reloader and not all that knowledgeable about reloading. Need some advice. I've got a couple custom rifles built by a client/friend who trained under David Miller of AZ. The builder also supplied me with custom ammo for the rifles and I am about out of it. One of the rifles is a...

My brother-in-law works for Apple in Singapore and is moving back to the USA with his young family to Austin. I’ve had quite the influence on him and he now wants a Ford F-250 crewcab, a rifle and a handgun! Voting Republican! He’s never hunted or been a gun enthusiast. Is there a good gun...

I won this new muzzleloader several years ago at a RMEF banquet and it remains unfired. It’s been sitting in the safe and needs to go. It was made by T/C for Marlin and is basically a T/C Black Diamond. It has a 22” stainless steel barrel, 1 in 28 twist, stainless steel action, black...

I got an email last week from Swift saying they were finally ready to send me 5 boxes of 225 grain A-Frame in .338 that I had ordered forever ago. Seems Swift is catching up? I called and confirmed that I still want them. I got shipping confirmation a couple days ago.

Planning Several years ago, I booked a lion hunt in Zimbabwe in the Save Valley Conservancy after hunting plains game there in 2012 but due to past USFWS lion import issues and other safaris getting in the way, I have not made it there for lion, yet. In the meantime, I have done several other...

Hello All, I took this rifle in on trade In September for a hunt. After shooting it, I almost took it to Tanzania last month but it was too late to switch around the gun permits and I have two other 375 H&H Mags already so I am selling this one. The guy who owned it is a big bow hunter. He...

I hope none of the AH members are flying to Africa or anywhere else today on United Airlines. UA issued a nationwide ground stop due to equipment issues and shortages after the Labor Day holiday weekend. Yikes!

Prelude Clear back in 2001 at the WSF Sheep Show, my wife and I found a listing of the North American 29 Slam of big game animals that was printed on a round piece of cardboard. It had an arrow dial on it and you could spin the arrow/dial to point at a picture of each individual animal which...

Just heard from a friend that a plane crash in Western Alaska likely killed the pilot and a grizzly bear guide that worked for my friend, Lance Kronberger of Freelance Adventures. Reports are sketchy at the moment but I don’t think Lance, himself, was the guide killed. African and Alaskan DG...

I have tried adjusting the trigger on my Whitworth Interarms Model X .375 H&H Mag but I’m just not happy with the results. Too much travel and just don’t like the feel. The rifle is like new and has the most beautiful stock on it that I have seen on a Whitworth so I would like to keep the...

Hello everyone. Thought it might be fun to see pictures of your top five biggest African animals! I know that a trophy is in the eye of the beholder and that some hard won animals can mean more to us than inches but in this thread I thought it would be fun to see your biggest! I hope the...

It’s been about ten years but since I’m laid up after surgery on my right tibia, I thought I would share some safari adventures in Mozambique. After a 2012 safari to the SVC in Zimbabwe, my wife and I knew we had to go back. A cancellation safari came across my desk and I jumped on it. The...

A few years ago I bought a CZ 550 .375 H&H from @BeeMaa that Wayne at AHR did an upgrade #2 on for @BeeMaa before he sold it to me. Now as to why @BeeMaa decided to sell this rifle is beyond me! I think it had something to do with buying a Blaser R8 or some other foolishness. Lol. A few...

I would like to hear opinions and info from members and outfitter members on rhino hunt options. I think @Philip Glass did a hunt a while back? I’m open to a hunt with harvest or a dart hunt. I would prefer a rhino with horn growth. I understand there might be a high fence involved but I’m...

My son is a Petroleum Engineer for a major and is moving to Midland, TX from Williston, ND in the Spring of 2023 with his wife and my one year-old grandson. He is a good and safe hunter with Colorado hunting experience and North Dakota white-tailed deer hunting experience but has not hunted in...

The guy who makes my .375 H&H loads refuses to use once-fired brass. Therefore, I would like to trade my once-fired brass to someone for new brass. I have 22 Federal cases, 20 Hornady cases, 16 Nosler cases and 56 R&P cases (total of 114) to trade for 50 new R&P or 50 new Nosler cases or some...

Anyone out there that has experience with this process and contact info for an experienced exporter/importer?

I am on my way home from my latest safari adventure and thought I would use my flight time to file a report. It’s a great way to make time on the long flights go a bit faster as well. Planning Several years ago, I decided to look for a safari in Zambia to add to my collection of free-range...

Anyone have any to sell? I have been waiting for Swift to restock through their website for several weeks.

Dear AH members, I have a friend that cannot find these primers for a new muzzleloader he just bought. Can anyone help?? He wants to shoot the muzzleloader this summer to get ready for his September 10th elk hunt. Any help appreciated!

The guy that makes my .375 H&H ammo will not reload once-fired brass. Therefore, I’m looking for some new brass. I can trade 60 pieces of once-fired .375 H&H (20 Federal, 20 Remington Peters, 20 Hornady) and 40 pieces of once-fired .458 Lott Federal cases. Or, I can just buy some new .375 H&H...

I have received word from some African operators that I have hunted with in the past that some of their Russian hunters are canceling high-end safaris for elephant, leopard, buffalo, etc… due to the Ukrainian war sanctions. There are some discounts that are coming available. If some of you...

If anyone has questions about the Colorado big game draw or how it works, feel free to ask me. I was on the stakeholder group in 1996 that formulated how the bighorn sheep, moose and mountain goat draws are conducted. I also know how the elk, deer, pronghorn and bear draw systems work...

I think I have a good plan for caliber and rifle selection for my safari in Zambia in late July and early August but wanted to see what you guys think. I will be hunting and traveling to three different areas to get the three lechwe species (Kafue, red and black) as well as sitatunga, roan...

I’m on my way home to Colorado after the first flight of four to get home. I have some long layovers so thought I would file a report. June 4th - Left the ranch for the Denver Airport. Took quite a while to check-in with American Airlines due to the firearm requirements for my connecting...

I have been waiting for decent weather to get to the rifle range before I leave for Alaska on May 7th and Botswana on June 4th. Finally got a couple calm days without wind, rain and snow so I went to the range a few days ago to shoot the CZ550 .375 H&H with AHR upgrades that I bought from...

https://thefederalist.com/2018/12/21/need-talk-trophy-hunting-wrong/ Hello guys. I ran across an uninformed article in The Federalist about trophy hunting so I contacted the Editor. Below is what I wrote: Dear Mr. Domenech, Since I am not on Twitter and John Davidson does not offer his...

Alaska’s COVID state of emergency expired without being renewed so the 72-hour negative test requirement before traveling is no longer mandatory.

If able to travel, I will be headed to Botswana in 2021 for my first ele hunt. I was looking for a proper double rifle but @Ray B beat me out on the 1910 Rigby .470NE that was offered on AH last month so I've decided to use my brown bear guiding rifle, a CZ 550 Safari .458 Lott with AHR upgrade...

If anyone wants to sell, I am looking for my first DR for a hunt next year in Botswana. I would like to find a used VC with ejectors and an intercepting sear safety. I am not sure I can get a new one built by VC in time and I am not against a used rifle if in good shape and well regulated. I...

Do any of you Canadian members know of anyone near Calgary?

A nice little rifle that my kids have outgrown. I need to make some room in the safe. It has a smaller aftermarket stock on it with a 12” LOP and a muzzle brake so it’s setup for kids or a petite woman. I don’t have the original stock but adult-sized aftermarket stocks are widely available...

On November 13, 2018, I flew from Denver to Chicago where I claimed my bags and re-checked them with Turkish Airlines. I also met Mel, another hunter from Minneapolis going on the same hunt. We boarded a Turkish Airlines flight to Istanbul. Turkish Airlines was great and the first class seats...

Hey guys I just returned from guiding on the Alaskan Peninsula for Mel Gillis on his huge Alaska Peninsula National Wildlife Refuge area. Both my hunters got great bears. On day three, Travis took a 10’2” bear with a 28 11/16” skull (28” is the B&C All-Time Record Book minimum). This bear...

Bighorn Sheep Hunt Horror Stories I have very few problem clients because almost all my hunts require a license drawing and most of the hunters playing the draw game are serious, good hunters. But OMGosh I probably have one of the biggest horror stories to tell ablout a problem client. I...
