    Single Shot Saturday - Show us your Single Shots!

    Top is my Browning 1885 Highwall in 7mm Mag. My go to deer rifle for the last 25 years. Bottom is a Sharps in 45/120 with a period correct Malcolm scope. Only taken 1 whitetail doe with it so far. Heavy beast to carry. I would love to take it for Bison or buffalo sometimew.

    2 rifle Battery. Please Share Yours

    I cheat a bit... my 2 rifle/3 caliber, anything anywhere, battery. Top is a Sauer 404 with barrels in 375 H&H and 300 Win mag. Scopes are in QD mounts. 2-16 GPO for the 300 and a 2-12 & 1-5 Leupold for the 375. Bottom is a Krieghoff in 450/400 3" for up close and personal engagements. ☺

    Have YOU Become a Curmudgeon?

    Yes please, count me in as a Curmudgeon. Have little to no patience with the vast majority of loonies out there now. I whole heartedly agree that there weren't enough ass whippings handed out to some of the "informed / enlightened / woke" idiots that abound.

    Assets Versus Experiences

    Far from being a poor church mouse yet not blessed with an endless well of income, I've had to "toil" for others, who at times seemed to begrudgingly dole out the pittance they allowed, for the assets I attained, little as they may be, yet I have been the "experience it while I can" type...

    .300 mag loads

    I use a 180 TSX in my 300 Win at just 3100 fps. Works well on everything from broadside Eland and down. For the itty bitty critters I use a 180 CEB solid at the same speed. The two bullets both shoot sub minute groups and within an 1/2 inch of each other point of aim.

    What is your dream hunt in Africa..?

    For me, in Africa; bull elephant spot & stalk & lion & lioness spot & stalk. Unfortunately, I can't import them now from the countries I can afford to hunt them in. So maybe Greenland for muskox or somewhere for moose

    Retired - Now What?

    What a perfect time for this thread to pop up. As of today, January 31st, I too am officially retired. I've worked for someone for the last 56 years of my life, mostly fixing things (cars, trucks, heavy equipment, robotics - automation equipment) for somebody. Wasn't quite ready to hang it...
