Welcome! You are in the right place

Yessir i went with the firedot!

Good to know on the battery compartment...i wonder if the VX 6 Gen 2s are the same? i would assume so and i have one but didnt realize there was a special tool with it. Ill have to check

I use this with my 300 PRC. Lays flat in the case and protects the scope and muzzle. However, if one has a nice stock or wood to also protect, a full soft case would be the way to go...

I was just on their website going through the video...looks pretty slick! I may have to get one or 2 for my Nanuk 995...

I use a Nanuk for traveling with my rifles. The latches are so nice...almost hydraulic like when closing them. Ive had them up in Alaska barren land, on boats traveling for moose hunts, and in the desert on hunts...zero issues https://nanuk.com/collections/hunting-cases

Yeah I’m thinking about that but thought I’d reach out here first. Now that they have the Gen 2 out the Gen 1 is no longer being produced so that could be the reason they are on sale…gen 2 is more expensive as well

Sounds like the right one. Let me know

Another scammer, please remove

Hi everyone, I’m looking for this scope for 375 H&H, preferably used. I noticed that NJG is selling them new for $770, which I might pull the trigger on, but I wanted to check here first in case anyone is looking to sell theirs. Appreciate it

Welcome from Bozeman, born in Helena. Good wolf hunting and trapping in Lincoln, MT

Where from the hi line, my wife is a hi liner

I definitely will, when’s the next one?

Oh man tell me about it…I’m a native Montana from Helena and moved here before the boom…just got to hang on until the kiddos graduate and then we are off to a smaller town. Yeah the flathead has grown a ton too, w scone up every spring for sports and it grows every year

Btw, I’m down in Bozeman. Welcome to the forum, I’m a newbie here too but it’s been awesome and a great resource for planning

oh man if you have 3 weeks you can do it proper! A lot of these outfits offer hunting and photo and game drive safaris, excursions to Kruger, cultural excursions etc. you name it.

Here’s a link to the thread I posted a couple weeks ago. Lots of good people and outfitters ended up reaching out directly to me https://www.africahunting.com/threads/first-time-safari-with-family.98072/

Where in Montana,? I’m also from Montana and planning my first one as well and initially had those same feelings of being overwhelmed but it becomes a great and fun process. You will field a bunch of proposals from different outfitters on this platform and then just do some Research on each of...

Let me know if you end up offloading any, I’d be interested

Ha where did his post go!? Must have deleted it after your review of it

Yeah good call on all of those. I ended up finding a pre 64 earlier today that is all original minus original but pad and missing the front hood. In really good shape for $1800. I think it was a good value for what I’m looking for and wanting to do

Found one! Thanks everyone for the input!

Thanks for the tip! just called them and they have them priced at $4500 and $6000. A little more than im wanting to spend on a shooter, but again thanks for the info

nicely done! looks great and cool project!

Yeah a guy can wish right! ill keep an eye out and gauge the market and may have to end up spending more. Appreciate the insight

You cerakoted a pre 64! shoot me a picture of that build I may end up buying my buddies but he wants $2500 for it which I think may be on the high end for a shooter rifle. Whatever rifle i end up getting, I want to put EAW pivot mounts on it and possibly a barrel band and rear sight. It would...

yes sir i have a message in with them to see

It will probly move in that direction after i get the 375 in the quiver

I reached out to the seller about the rifle a couple of days ago. He mentioned that he couldn't send pictures of the bore and would only accept offers within 10% of the asking price...anyone know anything about this seller barrybrowning?

Can you send more pics?

Yeah, im wondering if the shot groups in the H&H would be less tight due to it being bored out

Haha yeah im in the "shooter" pre 64 category...I use mine for hunting...dont mind blemishes at all...just want a good bore

Oh really...does having it bored out to 375 weatherby impact H&H shot groups?

My buddies and I handload, so it's a possibility. I think right now I'm still pretty set on a .375 H&H, but I'll let you know if that changes. I appreciate you reaching out!

Yes, I have already reached out to them. I will probably end up sending whatever rifle I purchase to them for the installation of the EAW mounts, possibly a barrel band, and a rear sight. I'm considering the Wisner 458RS, but I'm not sure if it will work with the .375 H&H contours. If it...

Thats true, probly need to find a good gunsmith anyhow that knows about how to properly mount the EAW bases and rings.

Thank you, fellas! That's exactly what I was wondering, and I knew I could get the information I needed here. I suppose I’ll have to accept the front swivel on the stock if I want a pre-64 model, or I could look for a post-64 safari model in .375. 1990s safari or early 2000s possibly

Yes I have some pre 64s in a 243, 257 rob, and 264…all shooters and still hunt with them. The 375 is a new animal to me though. My buddy has a pre 64 he would sell me for $2500, also a shooter, but it’s just a standard model. I may do that but I was hoping to find a safari version with the front...

Thank you for the info!

Looking to purchase a good pre 64 model 70. Preferably, the African/Safari version, production beginning in 1956 as they moved the front sling stud to the barrel and i like the rear sight on these. Would like the Control Round Feed and Extractor. Not sure the value of these currently and if...

Dang, thats pretty tech! May have to lookup how to do that

Ah thank you for the investigative work!
