I just had a similar experiance with my K95. With some of my freshly reloaded cartridges the action either wouldn’t lock up or was very difficult to lock up. My mistake was only checking the shoulder bump. Turns out the neck shoulder junction had grown just enough on some cases to cause the...

Ruger No.1 .300H&H, .375H&H, 8mm Rem Mag (but that won’t happen)

Let’s not forget ‘The Gods Must Be Crazy'

The .375H&H with 250gr bullets would be fine but personaly I prefer 300gr bullets for that caliber. The .300wm or 30-06 are probably the most practacle. The 9.3x62 is a great all rounder, especially with 250gr TTSX’s going 2500+fps, and it’s more synonymous with Africa. Tough decision

I, for one, would sacrifice a head of lettuce for a bunny or deer. If’n you have neighbors near by a 22 or 25 caliber air rifle may be the appropriate solution for your problem. I wonder what would Elmer say. ;)

Not many companies can boast and celebrate having a 250 year history. My hat is off to them for such a feat and for taking the time and spending the money for such an event.

I looked for it on Jet Pens but they do not list that color. I then looked up Wearingeul's website and found it. It seems to be a blended ink used for illustration. Is that the purpose you have in mind? I had not used a fountain pen, until these past couple of years, since high school. Also I...

I may have to try that since I have all of the ingredients in cupboard and garden. My wife is the Gin connoisseur. I like and keep in stock The Botanist, Hendricks and Nolet's. I never have cared for Scotch. I do like a good Rye Whiskey or Bourbon though. Teeling’s Single Grain Whiskey out of...

Love the 8x68. I’ve had good results using VVN550 or RL16 with the 180gr TSX. Haven’t messed with 200gr bullets. For 220gr and 250gr bullets Alliant’s 4000MR works well.

If it shoots well, leave it alone. If not then adjust your load or find some different ammo that it does shoot well. If you must have a suppressor on it then rebarrel it or better yet build a new rifle.

I don’t know, Jack Parr, Johnny Carson's predecessor was truly great.

I too have a CZ550 in .416 Rigby. My load for the 400gr North Fork SS was 94.5gr RL 22 @ 3.65”oal getting around 2370fps. The North Fork CPS was 93.5gr of RL 22 @ 3.66”oal getting around 2240fps. Primers were GM215M for both. Both shot just under MOA at 100yds. I have only shot paper with it so far.

Ready for the hunt with HTK Safaris!

I like the .375H&H a lot and think it is probably the best all around Medium Bore. As for other Medium Bores I like the 8mm’s the most. I have a few 8x57is' and a 8x57irs, a 325wsm, a 8x68s and a 8mm Rem Mag. The 8 Rem Mag is my goto. The 9.3x62 is another favorite. I don’t have any .338...

TSX, TSX, TSX Alternative would be Northfork or Hammer
