    Need help re-doing African Sporting Creations sticks lashing

    Yeah, sure, I'll be sending an email. I am not CONUS so I'd prefer to avoid international phone calls. In the meantime, if anybody can help by posting some explanatory pictures please it's welcome

    Need help re-doing African Sporting Creations sticks lashing

    I did - yesterday - via social media. Hope to solve the issue sooner than later, so the first who can provide info the better.

    21 days with Mark Sullivan

    I've been watching this video when aired, but didn't make it to the end. Stopped watching after bad luck with the leo baiting - I found baiting super-boring and hoped to see more action. Video is way too long, but gives good hints on the kind of experience you could have hunting with Sullivan...

    Need help re-doing African Sporting Creations sticks lashing

    Greetings, a friend of mine is owner of a set of these great shooting sticks, but unfortunately the knot came loose, the sticks got separeted and the lashing has now to be re-done. Is there anybody who owns said shooting sticks so kind as to post some pictures / instructions helping us to...

    Build your own tripod shooting sticks

    Just bumped into this topic and I'll be trying building my own. The provided pdf knot instructions are SUPER!!! Although I don't understand the practical difference between lashing with racking turns / with plain turns... might be limits of vocabulary, since english is not my main spoken language.

    Bullet pulling .375 H&H and .300 Weat Mag...

    Anyway, I found a very inexpensive kinetic hammer I am now waiting for delivery. I'll get in touch later on if I succeed or fail with the task.

    Bullet pulling .375 H&H and .300 Weat Mag...

    This is such a simple yet brilliant solution to the problem... it surprises me we don't see more often. Probably because is cheap and doesn't resell quite as well as multiple collets or broken hammer replacements... sell once cry once doesn't cope with cash cowing companies greed

    Decapping .470 NE brass cases without dies

    40-50 primed cases. Yeah, my main concern is that something could go wrong by leaving them primed: live primers could go bang, spent primers could... corrode? Maybe ruin brass? Unfortunately I don't have the dies. These were handloads by the way, so I am quite sure it's the 215s. Never heard...

    Decapping .470 NE brass cases without dies

    Hello there! Possibly a dumb question... What would you suggest to remove some Federal 215 live primers from .470 NE cases without owning the proper decapping / resizing die? I believe there ain't no universal deprimer around that can fit such a long safari cartridges brass, right..? If the...

    Beretta is trying to buy out Ruger

    This is yet another tale, anyway I believe you are confusing things: Stellantis is disappointing overall, and it wasn't really involved in the acquisition and management of Chrysler and related brands until recently. As far as I can tell, Fiat bought Chrysler and made a great deal, at least for...

    Beretta is trying to buy out Ruger

    This ain't anywhere a news, but it became viral since recent childish exchange of accusation by both companies on social media platforms a couple of days ago. Ridiculous. As you said, Ruger is not doing well these days and I don't see a problem if bought by owners having the capacity to spend...

    Bullet pulling .375 H&H and .300 Weat Mag...

    ... with a kinetic hammer? Possible? G'day y'all, might have a friend gifting me some spare leftover ammo of doubtful provenance (i.e. handloaded? When? How? By who?) If so, I was thinking to unload and try to save reloading components. In the past I unloaded some .470 NE with my Lee press...

    I've Always Wondered Could I Stop A T-Rex On Safari With My 416 Rem Mag or Any Rifle

    Would my .470 NE Woodleigh solid drop the saur? Yup! Would I risk taking that shot? Uhm... nope! Too small of a brain. Saur brain size like chicken and I am not good shooting nuts. On the other hand, mouth and theet are too big for comfort.
