Glad you had a great hunt. Love to see some photos.

We can never forget that horrific day. I know I won’t. The sight of the planes crashing into the towers. The explosions. The people jumping to their deaths rather than burning to death. The heroism. I was in NYC in 1993. We stopped in a newsstand across the street from the WTC to get something...

A Rigby HS isn’t in my future unless I scrap plans for a hunt and put the $$$ toward a rifle.. However, I have handled a HS. I’m surprised the salesman didn’t yank it out of my hands for fear I’d drool on it. To me a HS isn’t a HS without irons. That said, except for my DG rifles, a vast...

I prefer a 3.5”-4” for gutting and capping. Easy to control in an animal. 5”-6.5” for skinning and breaking down the animal.

Always loved the look of a Damascus blade

Heck of a makeover on that rifle. Now just need a buff or ele to hunt.

Beautiful rifles. Congratulations on the new .577.
