Following, I have been thinking of a cull hunt myself

FWIW. I have never shot a member of the tiny 10 with a small bore. But when I was younger, one summer I shot a lot of ground hogs with 223rem Fmj. I was thinking I was missing a lot. Until I noticed the blood trails to the den holes. I would caution against using a solid/non expanding...

Tsx.

How long is the drive? over night some where?

As I’ve gotten older, I’ve slowed down on buying firearms. When I was younger, I bought and traded many that I now wish I had kept, as they have become valuable collector’s pieces over the years. One reason I’ve cut back on buying is simply space. My "office" is full, my gun safe is packed...

I can understand that also, Damn shame how the world is turning out, Congrats on the sharps, looking forward to see the results of shooting it. One day I may get one

Yes there is ,,,, move

My last African trip. I took my phone and a GoPro. Most of my pictures were taken with my phone. The phones have improved to the point I am satisfied with the pictures and do not see the need for a separate camera. Now if I wanted a telephoto lens to talk longer shots Maybe. But I...

Antelope in wyoming this october, then deer , antelope in montana in october. Local whitetail . I was booked for a cape buff in june, But a torn rotator cuff and a new grand baby made me postpone that trip.

Change the subject , What’s going on in South Africa ? A friend just told me he postponed his safari this summer for a year. Concerned about violence

Pretty good price on a new one. Making way for the ph3 I am guessing

Scheels was running a nice sale on them, Might check them out. ALso if you are not close to a scheels. They will ship to your FFL

Glad you are here, please share some experiances from your country. Would really enjoy a good converastion with you over drinks.

Welcome to the forum, fellow virginian

The brass supply is why I went with a 375hh. It’s a shame because I really like the Ruger rifle. Probably would of went that route if brass was available

I have a seekins. Well built fine shooting rifle. That stock style would not be my first choice for a fast shooting dg rifle. I am more of a traditional type stock for fast off hand shooting. But as for quality. I feel it would be tough to beat at twice what seekins is asking

I have had good luck with scopes, vortex,leupold,nightforce and nikon. Knock on wood never had a real issue. Shot thousands of rounds with leupolds, traveled all over the world with a Mk4 . Banged them around,dropped them etc. Have not had a problem. I have a nikon slug hunter on a 20ga...

beautiful shotgun

I am getting one very soon. Out of stock last time I looked

If you hunt long enough you will miss. My worst ones are the short range easy I got this , oh crap there he goes shots. Over confidence, buck fever and not preparing to take the easy ones will get you.

I just purchased a nightforce nx8 2-20.sitting on a 6.5prc I hope it will be my go to lighter game rifle. I have a Leupold 1-4 cds scope on my 375hh. Thought about getting a 2-8/10 scope for it with Talley qd rings. I also have a 4-32 nx8 on a 300win mag. That I can use for most...

You are correct, but one company out of many. Times are changing. doesnt seem like that many years ago gloss scopes, blue steel and walnut stocks where the norm

Probably will go the used route. It’s just surprising that no manufacturer is making any

Send the details I will pass it along. Watching ebay, But I would think some one would make a shiny scope to go with shiny metal. I guess the mattel/barbie gun era is to far upon us

Buddy of mine bought a Ruger African in 35whelan Looking for a gloss scope that would be appropriate for it. Unfortunately I do not see any one making new gloss scopes ,,, or maybe we ain’t looking in the right spot.

I am certainly interested, tuned in for more details. Espicially a night hunt.

Welcome I am in VA myself. Northern neck of virginia

ok ,,, So what the hell is a barbie rifle?

The great american outdoors show. Whos going? https://www.greatamericanoutdoorshow.org/ I have not made my mind up if I am going . I have hunts booked for 2025 and 2026 state side. Not sure what to do in 2027, alaska or africa and if its to far out to book yet?

Barbie rifle? And why the hate on a 243? Its a fine flat shooting round I hear.

Its got to work smoothly ,action trigger etc. MOA accuracy or better. Not painful to shoot. recoil is one thing painful is something different. Most painful rifle I ever shot was a 30-06 of a buddy. Hard plastic butt plate. Every time it went off felt like a karate chop in the shoulder. The...

Lots of folks jumping on the 7mm back country.

good thread, following

Pm sent

I load 168ttsx for my 308. Shoots well, terminal ballistics are good. Some folks claim they don’t expand well. But it hasn’t been my experience. They don’t blow up like a ballistic tip. But they mushroom and punch through. I generally shoot behind the shoulders. Nice entrance and...

Drama, sounds like school yard drama.

I have a vx3hd that I dial and have had 0 issues with, Just bought a VX5hd and a VX3hd 1-4. I use the VX3hd cds on my 375HH and have done the "box test" at a 100 yards with return to zero and I have dialed up the 375 and made hits on steel with it at 500 yards shooting 300gr tsx. No issues yes...

Me too,,,,,,

I dont need it,,,,but boy do I want it. lol Need to stay strong

I was going to get it, but apperently he got offended and upset with the forum and left. He did Pm me saying I could still get it. Honestly with the slight temper tantrum he exhibited, I didnt have a good feelign about it and backed out, He indicated to me he is done here.

After you figure out trophy fees. Look at air fare , taxidermy and getting trophies home. The airfare and shipping is sometime more expensive than a plains game hunt.

New unopened weaver bases got for a savage 110. Never used. 61m and 46m. Shipping cost only

I have had PHs recommend the 275 barnes over the 300 saying the bit extra velocity helped them perform better.

What part of Virginia are you in? If you are willing to make the trip to my house. I have a range behind my home thats more than long enough for a 375, long shot camera system, garmin xero and reloading set up for a 375HH. I have a scope lapping tools and able to bed if needed. I also have a...

I signed up for the Veteran program with leupold. I will be purchasing direct for leupold. Thank you for the heads up

That’s who I was thinking of when I made this post. Couldn’t remember his name at the time. Thanks

You got the link to the vip program

Looking to purchase a vx5hd 3-15 fire dot. Any one got a line on good deals ?
