    Whoah. Tremendous. Very nice. A friend has one that has been converted to 458 Win Mag. Served him well!

    458 Win Mag to Lott conversion, PLEASE HELP

    Re-barrel? Should just be a re-chamber. You’ll need a new mag box or remove the block from a win mag. Also the ejector will likely need to be adjusted. As far as feeding - in for a penny, in for a pound. Once you start down that path you just need to keep throwing $$$ at it until it works as...

    Thoughts on an FN Supreme Commercial C Ring Action

    I believe you will find it's an excellent action with the desireable C vs. H ring. If it's a true FN commercial then it should have the traditional bolt release instead of the changed style on the Browning

    InReach SE here - take it everywhere. I can take it and a small Anker battery and literally text from anywhere - no generator needed.

    Stop in for Supper, friend

    Agree! It gets hot in Idaho and i also love a good cold salad. My wife also makes pickled shrimp and it is unbelievably good for a summer cold dish!

    Stop in for Supper, friend

    Heck yeah man, I’ll take it. Although I have never had mutton - those look delicious and I am sure taste so as well. I take it the taste is strong? Maybe like goat? Love me some goat.

    TANZANIA: Mto wa Mbu: African Buffalo Safari Trackers

    Is it certain that is a bull? The forehead is quite sharp and I have seen some pics of some mighty impressive females from Amboseli.

    TANZANIA: Mto wa Mbu: African Buffalo Safari Trackers

    That is a fantastic trip. Hit some very good places. Mto-wa-mbu is exactly the area Hemingway hunted with Perceival - nice. Jealous on the gorilla trip. I have a mild fascination with Dian Fossey and the gorillas - hers is a very complicated story worth reading about. Of course Carl Akeley...

    Mauser k98 to 9.3x62

    If it’s a 300 Win and you don’t like that the 338 would be about the only thing realistically left. If it’s a WSM..well… I do not think a 375 would be cost effective. You are essentially buying an action as everything else will be tossed.

    Random question: Any chance you are a radiologist?
