Find someone/a couple of people that have both calibers and test fire them. A friend has a 300 WeaMag, and the recoil is very high; he got a brake put on it. If someone is recoil sensitive, after buying a 300WeaMag is a bad time to find out. I hunt with a 300WM in Germany (largest game about...

The first Bock is a very good Bock. Waidmannsheil!

I have been working for the last 3 weeks and no hunting. We have a multi hunter organized hunt on Thr & Fri. We can harvest Rehbock, Schmaltier/spieser, Frischling, and Ueberleufer. I am sure we will get something.

Harvested two weeks ago.

I have a Heym SR-30 .375 Ruger, and I have read a lot of info on Hornady .375 ammo. I think that a lot of people have confused the 300 grain InterLock with the DGX, and used it on buff. Hornady discontinued that bullet, but you can still find them in some stores. Side-by-side, they look the...

I'm retired Army and working and living in Germany. Look up "Hohenfels drive hunt" on YouTube. Lots of hunt videos from Germany.

I have heard of wolves in north east Bayern too. The Bundesforster I hunt with has a friend with a Revier in GAP with Gams. I just haven't had a time where my and his vacation for hunting lines up. Usually we are organizing and working hunts in Hohenfels during the Gams Jagdzeit. I have had...

I haven't been on this site in a while. I love working at Hohenfels, and the hunting is great; the Hohenfels training area is beautiful. It is about 18,000 HA and has about 6,000 Red Deer. All is Bundesland (federal government land-for those not in Germany), so you have to pay the band to...

Waidmannsheil! to everyone in Germany hunting Rehbock tomorrow morning. Hopefully we have some pictures to post in the following days.

Where are the wolves at? I work at Hohenfels, close to Regensburg.

I'm Craig. I work for the US Army in Germany; origionally from FL. I am in the early stages of addiction; only own 2 Heyms; working on a 3rd order. I purchased a Heym SR-30 in .375 Ruger; special order from the factory that is about 2 hour drive from where I live. I have a budy that works at...

Email me at craig.willey@gmail.com. I was a Combat Engineer stationed at Camp Eschborn about that same time'89-'91. Build bridges at Camp O'Pond. My wife is from Frankfurt. Now I'm retired and working at Hohenfels. It could be easier to hunt that you think.

Have you hunted in Germany before? I don't know any hunters in Frankfurt/Main area. I will ask around to see if anyone I know, knows anyone in that area.

Germany has some of the toughest animal protection laws. The German government mandates that all cloven-hoof animals are covered by a population control program by hunters. One adult red deer can do $10,000 damage to trees in one year. If hunters wipe out a population of deer in a certain...

Then you have all of the idiots that say "If we stop all of the hunting, then all of the species will go back to normal, and the eco system will balance out. Only problem with that is the human population is not compatible with the animal population. We will need to reestablish the predator...

What are you paying for a 50-box of .375 250 TTSX when you can get them? I'm living in Germany, and they have them on hand for about 71 Euro with shipping to my house from Frankonia.de but I order them from the states for about $65 from because I work for the US Army. I think that...

Norwegianwoods: I'm looking for someone that is reloading the 250 TTSX that will share their data. I just bought a .375 Ruger Heym SR-30, and I'm hunting in a lead-free area in Germany. Would you mind sharing you data for the 250 TTSX? All I can find in Germany is Hornady 300 DSX.

Maybe a bullet fragment broke off and hit the magic kill button. I shot a deer last year with .308 Win 168 TTSX, did a heart/lung passed through, came out at a 45 degree angle, and hit another deer 25 yards away. A heard of red deer came out, and I waited until one cleared the group, with...

Got my first gun when I was 10, Ruger 10/22; (serial # 1719 & still have it), harvested many Grey Squirrel in FL with it. First vehicle was a Honda CB-450 bike when I was 17. Didn't have much money growing up, so I didn't buy any albums until I joined the Army; Charlie Daniels: A Decade of Hits.

The ones that pay for the trophies pay the bill for the conservation of the rest of the animal population. As I have explained many times to many non-hunters, animals die. If they die of old age, there is no gain. If a hunter pays for a trophy hunt, he is helping the rest of that animal...

A 95-year old man goes into confession. The priest asks what he is there for. The old man says: "Last night I was driving home, and saw these two 25-year old girls hitch hiking. I picked them up, and they decided to take me to a motel. We stayed up all night drinking, smoking, and having sex. I...

What is the hunting report? I'm origionally from Pensacola area, but working for the Army in Germany now.

Any action you can shoot .30-06/.270 out of, you can just screw in a .375 Ruger barrel, modify the bolt face and extractor, and you have a .375 Ruger (I'm sure there are some actions that take a little more than that, and some actions that can't handle the pressure). All I need to do now is put...

Foxi: Waidmannsdank! I love it working and hunting at Hohenfels. I run a training site that is about 500 meters from where I hunt, so during my lunch time, I can work on highseats and check the area. It cost to hunt here, but it is worth it. There are some mornings that I will see 100 to...

Here is a pic of my Ungerade-Fier Hirsch. Only 3-point IIIB hirsch ever taken at Hohenfels.

That is a good Bock! I work for the US Army and hunt at Hohenfels. For over 15 years, the commander can no longer authorize us to hunt in Germany. We must get an auslander deutsche Jagdschein too, and all hunts at Graf and Hohenfels must be coordinated through the Bundesforst.

I am living in Germany, and can answer question about hunting here.

The Hornady .375 Ruger DGS and DGX have the same weight, speed and BC, so you can zero and trian with the DGX (softpoint) and get the same external ballistics as the DGS (FMJ)

I just purchased a .375 Ruger, because I believe it is a cartridge of the future. Bought a Heym SR-30 chambered for that. It was not cheap, but a gun with life time guarentee on everything but the barrel doens't come cheap. Since I live in Germany, and have a friend that works for the...

I'll answer any questions about hunting in Germany if I can, and if I can't, I'll research and find the answer. I hunt with a German federal game warder, and he will probably know what I don't.

This past winter I made bad shot on a red deer. Shot through some brush at about 50 meters aiming at the heart/lung spot. The bullet struck a small limb, and went 30 cm to the right, cutting right through the neck arteries; missed the spine. He hit the ground on the spot, kicked with his hind...

Royal27, I probably don't have any exciting storys to talk about. After reading so many African safari hunting stories, hunting in Germany sounds a little boaring. Nothing bites back except the wild boars, and when we are 2+ meters above the ground in a high seat, it is pretty safe. One goood...

Just joined. Work for the US Army in Germany. I am an instructor that teaches the hunting course to US Forces so they can get their German Jagdschein and hunt in Germany.
