Ordered my first pair of JG Rangers with the leather midsole. I have a normally wide foot 9E and hope the fit is good. I’m surfing the break-in tips so I can wear them this hunting season, Spring, if possible.

M My wife liked an Africa shaped plague with this on a smaller scale. Very nice option to use leftover skins on.

Hunted KZN in April 2025 exclusively with my 9.3. Took a Nyala (high neck, DRT), Zebra (same, same) and a Cape Buff. The buffalo was in some thick stuff and after the bellow and walking up to him, he was where he was when he stood up. All 1 shot trophies. Loaded Barnes 286 TSX using IMR 4064...

Now that’s funny.

TTHA in January making outfitter connections for a 2027 African safari. I plan on taking someone on their first safari. Improving hunting property throughout the year. Spring black bear in BC in May Doves in September Whitetails in Texas towards the EOY

Looks like a good load. I don’t have any Varget. I have I4064 and A4064 that might work but nobody shows loads for 232 grain bullets, only 250 grain bullets in these powders. I see the manual shows a load for N140. I may try the A4064 (XMR 4064) and working up. I guess I could go the other...

How about tamping and spinning the case slowly after charging it with powder. I know the powder column will settle. How much compression then? What OAL are you trying to achieve that fits in the magazine and chambers?

Woodleigh Bullets offers a reloading manual covering the 416 Taylor. Unfortunately Raven Rocks Precision is out of them. If you do search on this site you will find load data. Hendershots offers loaded ammo as an option.

I took a cow last January. I used a 300 WSM with a 180 grain Nosler Accubond. It was a backup as my -06 had an extractor issue before the trip. The bullet was a through and through that ruined both bacon slabs with bloodshot. Yes, the skin closed to absorb the wound. I had to use my...

What is good preferred LOP for doubles, either SxS or O/U? Are we bumping up against 15”?

Interesting selection of rifle brass. Someone on here was looking for a source of 400 H&H. I did not realize there were that many WSM head stamped cartridges. 50-110, wish there was 45-120 brass.

I would like to do something similar with a TC Encore stock (after getting a 375 Flanged or 9.3x74R barrel built). I used the Encore in 300 WM on my first safari.

I was checking my email when the product notification arrived.

I picked up some 9.3 bullets in 232gr PP and 320gr RN. Added some 416 bullets in 340gr. Many Thanks, G What is the primary use for the .375 cal, 300gr, HD RN SN bullet?

Thanks all. I saw the forms on Conservation Force. I assume the same could be used for leopard.
