Welcome to AH Biggdav, you will soon find out that you are amongst "friends." On this site we share our knowledge and experiences freely thereby helping those that ask for it. Of course we all have our favorite rifles, calibers and bullets so on occasion don't be surprised to see some respectfully "lively" discussions.
Thanks,
Il do my best to add when's and where I can.
Favourite rifle? 0.17HMR
 
Welcome... keep on the trail of that buffalo!!!!

Thanks, I saw some a few months ago - not sure I can afford one Just yet!

Planning a trip in a couple months - will post photos and maybe a video!

Regards
 
Biggdav, I enjoy shooting my 17 HMR as well, but I don't think I'd call it my favorite rifle. I've taken a pesky groundhogs with it at a little over a hundred yards and used it to learn how to shoot off shooting sticks. My wife's cousin has taken a number of coyotes off his farm in Tennessee. Other than punching paper, what do you do with yours?

Mostly rabbits, and on a "no wind" night foxes. She will push 150-180 yds then drop quick. Handy gun though.
Roe's around here mostly with .243, 7mm-08, and with Red deer .270.

Africa it's been 30-06 and .375. Got hands on a 0.338RUM and hoping to take it down sometime

Regards

Hi Dr. Ray, I will be in Cooktown from Oct 16 to Oct 23 fishing Lizard Island Black Marlin Tournament.

I have several "slack" days after fishing before I head for stay in Sydney and Fiji.

Do you have any recommendations for 1 or 2 day hunt near Cooktown?

I've hunted both DG and PG in 4 different countries in Africa.
Thank you,
Bob

Good morning. I see that you had a Sauer 202 for sale for $3,000. Did you sell it at that price?
I have one for sale as well. I listed it (on here ) at $3,000 as well. Is the price high, low or right where it should be?

Thanks. Alex. [redacted] in case you want to call me to discuss further. I appreciate your time help and support.

Dave, I could use both of them if still available. I just picked up a new .22 mag and a .22 pump that they would be perfect on.
