    Any Appetite for a New <$10K Double?

    Tom, I would be very interested in a 450/400 basic double. It would be a tool to be used as designed and not a safe queen as so many higher end firearms become. I know of several PHs that would get in line as well, they would want something with a little more stopping power that a 375. I think...

    Utilitarian Reasons to Own Similar Rifles in the Same Caliber

    In most instances at my place multiples are mandatory. If I purchase a rifle I need to plan on 2 of same caliber up to the very heavy thumpers.

    Politics

    That's a very good question, my guess is if it does...... this will really put a hurt on the safari business as a whole. The increased costs in shipping has already slowed things down for many.

    Big bore Shooting range

    The only ar500 plates I have shot through have been from speed as well. Big bores swing the plates hard and usually wrap the chains. Short pieces of fire hose works much better than chains and can be hit multiple times before needing replaced.

    Indulge me...Ruger no 1 thoughts.

    218bee-416RM and 5 in between all NO1 Never once felt handicapped while carrying one. All shoot well with a proper hand load. Very simple and with a little practice can operate as fast as most with a bolt gun.

    Taxidermist for caribou

    A buddy and I had similar circumstances.....not to mention any names but my guess is taxidermist was located in North Pole? Our antlers and capes were shipped to airport, we picked them up and took to a local taxidermist. Our hunt was in 18, just hung boo on wall last week. If you are still...

    Reloading or factory loads for Dangerous Game?

    I have personally seen more misfires from hunting buddies factory ammo, than I have had with my personal handloads. Most firearms I own, I have never fired a factory round through them. The ones I purchased new have only seen the factory test round in them. On PG and especially DG I am not...
