    9.3x62 ammo choice

    a good bullet is the ones offered by Buffalo Bore they offer a 250 gr Barnes TSX at 2650 fps and I understand they are now offering a 286 Hornady load at 2450FPS. I have great accuracy with the 250 TSX in my Sauer 100.

    Flying with Bolt Action rifle - Bolt in or out?

    it was a brass padlock from Ace Hardware, and I went thru customs then TSA and they had to swab and tear everything apart as it showed explosives and got the ok, then after I checked it sometime over the next 9 hours waiting for my flight they got into it. I was never called or reached out to...

    Flying with Bolt Action rifle - Bolt in or out?

    last April after returning from Africa thru Atlanta when I opened my case at home I found a TSA card in the case saying inspected the case. I had 2 padlocks on it and somehow they opened both locks and relocked it so they can get in your case.

    I went in April of 2025 and was not required, but looking at the form on the Delta site it asks a couple questions I do not know what to put down like African ID number is that for US citizens or SA citizens and I will not do it over the net, I do not want my Passport number out there but will...

    To Suppress or Not to Suppress? That is the question!

    last year shortened my CZ550 .458 to 19 inches no brake or suppressor and showed my PH before rechecking after traveling. he put his ear muffs on and never said a thing about it. when I shot my buff I never heard the shot even with my hearing aids in but he later told the other PH, I thought...

    Clark's Desert boots

    I remember many, to many years ago wearing these boots and they were very comfortable and then kind of got away from them. now looking at getting a pair for my next trip in Sept, they have either a flat sole or a shot heel and a soft flat sole that should be quite when walking. anybody been...

    To Suppress or Not to Suppress? That is the question!

    my rifles get the barrels cut to 18-19 inches, even my 458 is 19 inches but it is not getting suppressed due to weight, on the 30.06 I use IMR8202 xbr and 150 Power hammer bullets at 2965 works great.

    Gun cases - 1 for 2 rifles or take 2 for 2 rifles when traveling/Africa

    Yes I did, got the idea from Phillip. It has been on 2 safaris and no one had said anything, they do not care as long as all the holes on the gun case have locks in them. as if it matters, last trip when I got home found a card in my case from TSA saying they inspected my case. They did not...
