T That was a memorable hunt, one of these days I will give my 348/416 a shot at something big,the 50 Alaskan did a fine job for you on that hunt,I have a Steyr with composite stock in 9.3x62,have another in 376 Steyr, very accurate guns,,just too many guns & not enough hunting,drop me a pm if...

I picked up a Dakota African in 338 LM years back,it is a rather boring cartridge,it just kills everything really well :) it is accurate it is deadly,I have taken a big Giraffe plus some big game that I cannot mention lol,my gun is very confidence inspiring,the 338 caliber is an awesome no...

I have a 338 Lapua,it's a Dakota African,it is set up for 250 gr loads,I run the Barnes Tsx @ 2750 fps,it has gone with me to Africa several times,it is an absolute hammer,on my last trip,it accounted for a pretty good size giraffe,I would not feel undergunned with this gun for any game,anything...

If you want quick & fast? no better choice then a red dot sight,all my DR's wear the now discontinued Dokter sights.

I will have to get my 470 out of the safe now & give it a workout lol.

Practical or not ? guns are a need ,not a practical need ha ha,ok some will argue with that, my first DR was a little petite 9.3,next was a 470,I have a few more now,including a bunch of bolt actions,I enjoy my guns,I reload for them all,the practical part went out the window a long time ago,but...

If I did'nt have a Heym in this caliber already? this is a great price!!!

Thank you,just ordered two pounds.

Wishing him a full recovery,always sad to hear of these events .

I like my triggers to be about 4 lbs,the back a little heavier,any lighter & you will run into doubling problems,I have several DR's,unless the triggers are just not comfortable to shoot accurately? I just leave as is,lighter triggers are a definite plus for me,if you have a qualified smith that...

I have two,first one is a 458 Win & second is a 375 H & H,they are both with soldered barrels,twin triggers,they are both really accurate ,the 458 is now a 458 Lott,I had it re-regulated to the Lott,it shoots really well,easy to find loads with different bullet weights,for the price? these are...

Plenty on Gun Broker but crazy pricing.

I have two Heym's,that day I was using the 470,my second one is a 450-400,I have hunted DG with a 470,458 Lott & 500-416,all three worked very well,I would hunt with any of these guns again,I load all three to about 5000ftlbs including the Lott,regardless of caliber? my preferred bullet is the...

I was hunting cape buff cows with my K gun in South Africa,my safety was off long before she fake charged us from about 30 yards away,I had a big tree to hide behind,after the 3 rd time my ph & tracker took off screaming shoot it shoot it ha ha,so I did,the 500-416 did a fantastic job,I shot her...
