Thank you ARHinAK!

Many of you have heard of Lon Paul- good news… he is alive and well. Lon is one of the OG safari rifle builders. Lon, raised with the likes of Jack Lott, Wally Johnson, Joe Coogan, at their family ranch, has forgotten more about rifles and Africa than most of us will ever learn. After losing his...

Looking to buy or trade for 286g Nosler Partitions bullets in .366 diameter. 250g NP would be second desired choice.

Just met LRH2 and finished transaction… what a peach of a human and wow, the adventurer. The Lon Paul circa 1990’s, pre-fire era, .458 WM, reamed to .458 Lott, nicer than pictures portrait. Thx LRH2, and thank Africa Hunting website- a lot of class act folks on this site. Good hunting to all!

I’ll take the rifle package… to a big farming family, new home- give that beauty a second (third) birth! Thx longrangehunterII

I’ll take (3) of them.. the 6.5 CM is our designated ranch rifle and will make fabulous year end bonuses. How to purchase? (I’m a touch old school). Thx. Fenstar

I’m not trained in the matter, but I guess I’m shooting my double (very successfully) wrong, for years now. For me, my rear trigger LOP does not feel half as good, or normal, as my front trigger pull. Since, in theory, the first shot is calm, quiet, controlled- I’ve always shot the rear trigger...

Buff loops on this slide. Elephant loops for the real big bore slides. Good fun… sewing a touch like handloading- makes the journey a touch more memorable.

I sew my own- wax canvas and buffalo leather loops. Fun to have hunt memories with me on Safari!

Great bullet. I’ve used NF Cup as second shot to 286g Barnes X, on two buffalo, with the 9.3x62. One bull dead after first Barnes X, but put NF in as insurance. Second buff went into thick stuff where NF bullet was the finisher. I’ve had super results with the NF Cup in .375HH and .404J, as...

I just used a 400gr North Fork Cupped solid pushed through a in .404J AHR rifle on a cull hunt in Australia. Absolutely devastating Thor hammer results. I shot them side by side with same weight Barnes X bullets. Side shot through vitals- we all know how well Barnes X work!- this trip, same...

Big Country Safaris- Alex Jagers. Just got back from a red neck, old school, heck of a fun time w him and his team. Very detailed, gun permits a breeze… Double Rifle heaven. Perfect Africa tune up. The cull hunt is a bit more of a shoot, than a hunt, but imagine Africa in the early years of no...

I was going to go down the 9.3x64 route, but did not. I have some brass for sale, if needed.

Rifle sold. Good luck with search, and hunting.
