Do you have any 7x57? Or 275 Rigby.

Nice to see they are dumping out the kool-ade instead of drinking it,)

That would be great! Provided it was done correctly and legally. At least a couple of those might end up on death row if the real truths came out and were proven in court.

Great question but sounds like you have the answer. Different twist on that question. Husband and wife traveling together. Want to take a drilling in 7x65r and a bolt 7x57. Is that ok as long one each on seperate permits? How about each taking a 22 Hornet? Again on their own permits.

Seems to me that the smartest thing for Biden to do would be to Pardon Trump immediately. And no caveat for Hunter. Of course smart and Biden does not go together so I'm not really expecting this to happen.

Great words! I remember admiring that piece of art:)

I've had 13 Russian Ag or Veterinarian grads work for me over the course of a few years, and 3 from Poland. Probably 20 years ago now, plus or minus. They had lots to say about the practices back home.... non of it good! Not Ag related but to the point. I had to supply certain things like work...

We are going to get our 4457's this week. Planning to take a 375, 404. And 450NE for buffalo and some bigger PG. A 22 Hornet with a suppressor and Swaro Z6i and clip on Leica Calinox thermal. Hopefully a drilling in 16 x 22 Hornet x 7mm but presently it is doubling the 7mm and left 16 gauge...

It has been proven that the best way to take a country with a lot of resources and make it financially (and spiritually) poor... is to put communism in charge. Do you honestly think that the United States would have reached its level of all around success had it started out with a Communist or...

<Yep. Our system is designed to make us borrow money to own stuff so we work till we die to pay debts.> Ok. Which is it? Does the system "make you borrow money"... i.e. twist you arm. Or does it entice you? There is a whole World of difference in what you are saying. It's like being...

Capitalism is precisely about choices. The choice to be successful, whatever that means to the individual. And the choice to be slothful. The choice to work hard, or not. The choice to work smart, or not. The choice to borrow money, or not. The choice to live happily within your means. Or not...

You are saying that you are forced by the system to borrow money. I'm saying you are making personal decisions. Nobody and certainly the system are not forcing you to sign loan papers. Nor is it forcing anyone else. Those are choices! We agree that it makes sense to borrow at low long term...

I believe you are more accurately describing Communism.

Just had deals with @Fatback @dogcat1 and @Woodcarver and all were top notch! I highly recommend all.

I've used pistol cases and plastic ammo cans. Especially when going on long hunts to Africa and pushing the weight limit. I want light weight containers because they weight the whole thing and it becomes a discussion about ammo weight vs. weight of the case...... but a heavier more secure case...

Ahh i missed that point. Makes sense. Thanks for the clarification. @Just Gina and I had our rifles not arrive in Tanzania when we did. I'm quite sure due to a bitchy anti gun woman in Amsterdam. Our Outfitter had people meet us at the airport in Dar and we all went to talk to their...

Make us? Really? Who twisted your arm and made you sign loan documents? I will argue that borrowing money own a home and possibly an automobile make some sense for the average consumer.... Only IF you have saved up at least 20% down payment or have an equivalent amount of equity in a trade...

And they cleared your without you there how? Was the 4457 form in the case? A copy of your passport? Seems like excellent service!

Congratulations on a successful hunt! And making a good choice;)

Yes Air France. And agreed. Those check in agents are more interested in doing their nails, drinking coffee, and catching up on their gossip than doing their jobs. One guy with his safety green and orange clothes on was cleaning that whole damned plane. Nobody else would help. In the US I've...

Anytime I've flown Delta I was checked in at Minnesota. Either MSP or the very small regional in Brainerd. Always been good but at MSP I would go to the far end where they have an agent doing special things such as checking in firearms. And the TSA agents have always been friendly and decent...

Amen! And for Isreal as well.

Hmmm, I'm not sure about that middle one... Hopefully someone who knows chimes in. From my just now Google search i found this which as I read it basically says there are two species and they have not successfully cross bred as hybrid males are not capable of reproducing. Sounds kind of like...

If you are talking about Dwarf Forest Elephant. Those would be in West/Central Africa.

I'm not 100% sure but East Cape is a good start. Very big and varied Province though, try to get to several parts;)

And depending where you go. A red duiker;) if you don't get one in Limpopo....

Fully agree with you on Sable. Take one in Mozambique or Tanzania and it will be well earned;)

Giraffe is a good one if you hunt it on a big property with some challenging habit. Like in the mountains in parts of Limpopo. Just hold out for a big black bull. Klipspringer, yes. In the mountains up top in parts of Limpopo or the Karroo in the East Cape... If limiting yourself to RSA. Red...

Shop it out. I had a quote from one if those pirates for over $4000 Inland freight. I called a couple trucking companies and got it done for $2000.

So it's close!

Saul i appreciate most of your comments. I will however have to say if you see Biden as a better concensus builder than a leader.... that is saying a lot as to just how bad he is! I would have fully agreed with your final comment a couple months ago, however Trump seems to really be well ahead...

Wow Trump had a great day in the Bronx! AOC said "God Is Good" predicting that Croton Park would be a muddy mess from rain for Trump's Bronx rally. Well apparently God is on Trump's side as he had beautiful weather for his rally! A lifelong Democrat came up to make that point in front of a...

Absolutely. Let me show you. Not hunted with Dave but I've visited with him at the AH dinner a couple years ago and he is definitely on the short list if my wife wants to shoot or dart a rhino ;) Doubt I'll take a second one but @Just Gina still needs one :) Gina is a Christmas fanatic... so I...

I think it would be quite unsettling to most humans to have killer AI drones roaming around like on Terminator. And many if not most of those drone footages are flashing "battery". I assume they quickly get to point of no return where you blow up something worth blowing up, or lose the drone...

Animals. They need to be put down like rabid dogs. I'm quite sure the IDF has many strong men and women capable of doing just that. And where is the awareness of this amongst our citizenry? A large portion of these protesters at our colleges would be victims if a similar event happened here...

Randomly quoting here as there are a number of posts relating to Energy Independence. I'm no expert either, but when discussing energy independence under Trump, wasn't that counting all energy? Coal was a big part of that. Today "green energy" has to be counted... although I think it is still...

A key component is that Luck is largely a manufactured commodity;) Being informed and taking action. Making an actual decision. Getting up and getting to work! To relate it to hunting.... there are always the guys commenting on last minute deals "got my lottery tickets bought... fingers...

Some more info that was included and was probably the starting point.

This is some info that came with my H&H Paradox built in 1900 but refurbished.

Congratulations Joe on a great roe buck and another fantastic trip. Spain was a real favorite of ours :)

We did both right at a year ago! Go in May, get a professional local tour company to line up your bull fight tickets but also be sure to see the dancing horses and a Flamenco show. Definitely take your wife with:)

I'm not sure everyone fully understands what a project you can be taking on when using a double rifle.... I'm still not convinced it is my favorite thing. They are fun to own and shoot. But bolt guns are easy once you have one that feeds reliably. Dealing with one barrel is certainly much...

Phil you are absolutely correct! We have all the equipment (well starter kits etc., dies, some powders, bullets, cases). Just have not taken time to set it up and start reloading. We have so much going on and I do not want to start down the road reloading going off half cocked;) So it really...

I call BS! Nothing wrong with Investments in fine metals;) Blued and green steel count;)

I wouldn't call them regulation issues. More me playing around to see if some factory ammo other than Hornady 300 grain would regulate. It looks like the Federal TBBC are regulating just fine. In fact for as tight a group I got at 100 yards I'm wondering this morning what they will look like at...

The cartridge will surely do the job. The reason to buy a double in it has to be first price of the rifle being so much less than a similar one in a classic rimmed cartridge. Second to have a wider array of factory ammo available.

Not that I'm aware of. Not to do paperwork. However you should be able to get a Porter to help with your bags and he should be able to help you get checked in, bags checked and send you to the right spot to check your guns near where you go through security. Tip him properly. If you are...

Tried again this evening and pretty well tuned into the Federal TBBC. Although I have not tried DGX as I don't have the Bonded version in 375. Shot at 100 yards off a bench with a lead sled.... maybe that is a big no no? I'm sure it didn't hurt the rifle any as it is not a big thumper. Got a...

And as for the Leopard, she's planning to get a buffalo this next trip.... And when she goes after another feline version of the Big 5/Dangerous7.... think a bit bigger;)
