The plastic surgery bothers me far more than the ink!

I’ve read all of those and they are great. I’ve read the co-authored titles as well but don’t really think they added anything to the series. I’m just about to start Warlock in the Egypt series. Hopefully I’ll enjoy them as much as the Courtney’s and Ballantynes.

Which Wilbur Smith series?

I’m reading “Sarum” by Edward Rutherfurd right now and that’s slowing me down. It’s a brick with very small font. Been going at it for 3 weeks and only on page 650 of 1033!

His books are pretty fun. Alex Hawke is the lead character. My problem is that I keep finding more series that I want to read. I’ve got over a hundred books on my “to be read” shelf and am struggling to keep ahead.

I didn’t realize there was a movie. Books are always better. I read all series in sequence as well if I can. Sometimes it’s hard to find some of the books. Might have to break down and buy an Ereader! Besides Greaney, some of the other authors’ series that I’m working my way through are Lee...

Just read Armoured and Sentinel. Will be starting the Grey Man series soon.

I’m still sure that all of the rifles that you are considering will work equally well. But I think you have a special preference for your 7mm RM so that’s I’m voting for. I truly believe it will kill a moose just as efficiently as your .338 WM. I have used the 7 mag to kill eight of my moose and...

I live in Saskatchewan, what area are you hunting? I’m in the same boat as those who say to use whichever rifle you enjoy hunting with the most. I’ve shot all of my moose with either my .308 or my 7mm RM. I have never felt under gunned. My wife shot her one and only with my 7mm as well. My...

That gun is 89 years old??? Wow it looks immaculate! Wish it was easier to own those up here.

Me too. But with my .22 Ruger American Rimfire or my Savage .17 wsm.

I am trying VERY hard to be done. I used to run the “one in one out” system. It worked great until now. Now I really like my small group of rifles and don’t want to let any of them go. Another factor that has made it easier is that I like to hunt with all my rifles. However where I live we don’t...

You and I think a lot alike! I’m also obsessed with hunting the ungulated. Could be because we’re both from Saskatchewan? lol. I enjoy pigs too. A bushpig would be high on my list if I ever get back to Africa. I really enjoy hunting black bears though. But I’m in the south of the province and...

I shot this moose with my .308 in a Browning BLR. First shot was around 100 yards. He ran 30 yards and stopped. He likely would have gone down there on his own but I hit him once more anyway. He tipped over onto his back on impact and was done.

My group that I grew up hunting moose with have killed 35 or 40 moose between us. I shot my first 9 with my 7mmRM and the last two with my .308. None went farther than 30 yards. My wife shot her only one with my 7mmRM as well. All of the others were .308s and .30-06s. One of my best friends is...
