That is a chewing tobacco brand in the US.

I purchased the scope from TBLOM. It is exactly as advertised. He is one of the good ones on AH purchases. Thanks for your honesty and your quick delivery!!! sam

I’ve gotten into the auto knives lately…

I am retrieving completed taxidermy Tuesday from Atlanta. Coppersmith cleared it on Friday. Since you are asking about Namibia, this is my example from there. I hunted in November and was successful on leopard, Damara dik dik, and springbok. The following April, the group I hunted with had...

I am going to travel to South Africa this summer with my outfitter friends at Warthog Safaris. We will head into the Limpopo and stay at their primary area (my youngest daughter is hunting for her graduation gift). Then we are driving into Chobe and then onto Victoria falls and then walk...

and for the record, my two 7mm rem mags are left hand variants--the oldest is a browning a bolt 2 stainless stalker that is now cerakoted and suppressed (think overly long) and the other is an under 7 pound light rifle from Christensen Arms with short barrel that is also suppressed and very...

I took at zebra at 320 and a Blesbok at 410 with the 175 a frame. I just took a nearly 300 lb mule deer with 143 grain long range Barnes at 362 yards.

I have worked up a load for 175 swift a frames that one of my 7 mags really likes. I’ve taken 20 plus African game with that set up. From kudu/waterbuck./gemsbuck down.

I have my theee daughter’s shooting 7-08. They are very accurate rifles and they shoot them well. My primary rifle is 7 mm rem mag. I have hunted elk and kudu and many in between with the 7 mag. I am impressed with the ballistics advantages of the 7 PRC.

As I wrote up in an earlier thread, while on a primary tiny ten hunt this past summer, I was able to take a kudu with 6.5 creed with 143 ELDX at a range of 90 yards and a fallow buck at over 325 yards. One shot dropped the one horn kudu while I needed a followup on the fallow--user error not...

Gizmo at Top of Texas Taxidermy in Amarillo, Texas does a fantastic job. He is on here frequently. I got an elk near Raton and drove it over to him for taxidermy. I am very pleased. He currently has a mule deer as well.

I have flown with my children (four) and my wife. the three with a small child was an awesome option with delta economy to JNB from Atlanta. We were able to fold arms up and get very comfortable. I have flown economy comfort 4 times with delta to JNB--more room than economy, but not...

Well done! Looks great!!

Slightly different opinion--if you are hunting from blinds or elevated positions, I use a cover for reducing noises bumping the blind or shooting sticks... but for the traditional need for a cover, I don't have one!
