    Are You A Member of SCI?

    Recently upgraded to Life Member. Was so impressed with the Nashville convention venue that I purchased a residence within walking distance!! Glad to hear they’ll be there for a while. Unfortunately my primary Pa residency chapter is somewhat lacking.

    20,000 Elephants To Germany!

    Decades ago there was talk of transplanting ALL rhinos from Africa to ranch-life in Texas since the African countries were too corrupt or unable to protect from the poachers. It was the last resort to protect theses magnificent animals from extinction.

    Anyone getting ready for fly fishing season?

    Learned as a kid with glass rods. With all the new technology, I still prefer a moderate action glass rod. My “camp” is along a trout stream in Pa.

    Sorry if already addressed, but do you treat socks and underwear as well i.e. it’s safe for direct contact with skin?

    One gun or two? On safari

    oh, no my point was I would need something slightly higher than 5x. I usually use between 7x - 9x max when hunting out west for elk and mules. My first safari for PG, I never shot anything over 275 yards. Not comfortable that far with 5x.

    One gun or two? On safari

    Taking 2 in May. Original plan was to take my M70 375HH for both buff and PG, unfortunately it’s carries a 1.5 -5x scope. Outfitted suggested something with a little more visual reach for my tired eyes for where we’ll be hunting PG. Therefore, also bringing the 300WM which is scope out to 14x.

    Opinions please: Pros/Cons of .375 Ruger vs .375 H&H

    My outfitter said the same. Hunting buff in May.
