    Florida Tax Holiday on Hunting, Fishing Camping Gear: Now through 12/31

    Glad to be a resident of Florida. DeSantis just signed a bill for no sales tax on guns, ammo, fishing, and gear through year-end. Hmm, just might need to go buy a few new guns and ammo.

    Credit Card Surcharges in South Africa

    I guess I’m fortunate that all my hunts I wired balance once I returned to the US so haven’t dealt with this

    What would you choose for a longer range A/R platform?

    Les Baer AR15 223 1/2" MOA out of the box with Federal Gold Match 77 Grain. Les Baer stopped making them a few years ago so they are few and far between. My Special Tactical with the shorter barrel definitely does the 1/2 MOA. They had the varmint and others with longer barrels too.

    Elephant 12 Day Trophy Hunt Available 2025 All Inclusive US$18,500

    @Slider had you read the earlier comments your statement was already addressed. Also, it is common terminology to state “trophy” for exportable vs “own use” or “management” to indicate non-exportable. Not all of us can afford $30,000-75,000 plus for large-tuskef elephants

    Many cheap hunts vs only one very expensive premium hunt in a lifetime

    I believe we each make that choice. Neither is right nor wrong. Sunny case, I prefer fewer trips and wild areas. 2011 Zambezi Valley Buff/plainsgane 2016 Niassa Province Buff/plainsgane 2025 Binga District Elephant

    I need a "Use Enough Gun" Gun. Suggestions?

    In the air Tampa to Atlanta then to Joburg. Next day Zimbabwe. My CO’s 375 and 404j are coming along. I find the 375 a pleasure to shoot. The 404j is fine standing off hand. I will use the 404j for my first elephant and will let you know how it goes. As always, shot placement means the most.
