Rule 4 "Know your target and what is behind it."
It reminds of a case several years ago when a man shot a woman at 200 yards(!) with a handgun because "he thought it was a Deer." 40 mins after sunset so it was an actual shot in the dark. People like this are just shooting at movement...
Hi All. I have GECO 7x65R Plus (170gr) and 7x57R (SP 165gr)

I have 2 cases of the 7x57R available $230/case plus $12 shipping.
These are the prices I paid from the Geco distributor here in the US. It is the ammo my double...
I am selling my Heym Luxus 26B. It is chambered in 7x65R and regulated with Geco ammo Shoots great with S&B as well (POI is off by less than 1/2") . It is the Luxus model with upgraded wood and engraving on the receiver (Wild Boar and Red Deer) Well "double" upgraded wood. I bought it in Germany...
No .375s but I have two Heym Model 26 Doubles, one in 7x75R and the other in 7x56R (kicking myself for getting ins basically the same caliber)
Took a nice Mountain Lion with the 7x57R and a Docter Red Dot. I have a Leupold VX-R 2-9x50 on the other and have taken some Roe Deer with it when I...
I use a Trijicon Accupower 2.5-10X56 Illuminated. If you have not looked through a Trijicon do yourself a favor, the glass is on par with the Germans. For the money they are one of the best values in scopes/
Horns when referring to Deer Antlers. People, esp. experience hunters and guides who constantly refer to Antlers as Horns. I cringe every time I hear someone say "Elk Horns" or "Deer Horns"
Deer have Antlers

I had great result with barnes TSX factory loads (.308) in Africa on Plains Game. The guide told to only bring those. They shoot great out of my Browning X-Bolt, very, very accurate. When I lived in Germany, not so great on red/Roe/Fallow. Germany mandated "Lead Free" ammo on all federal land...
In my limited experience hunting Elk, everyone thinks the .300 win mag is minimum and .338 is the preferred round. I heard a lot of stories of people taking Elk at 400-600 yds. What I actually saw in my camp:
The 6 or 7 other hunters all missed the first Elk they shot at (between 250-400 yds)...
I hunted Africa twice, each time the guidance from the outfitter and guide was the same. "Bring your favorite Deer rifle that you can shoot well. And use only Barnes bullets" Both said the biggest issues they had with American hunters is them thinking they need a .30 cal magnum and not being...
I shoot Elk with .308 and no issues. Elk are large but not esp. tough. Just like Moose. I have been Colorado for 5 years and most hunters seem to think Elk need a .338 Lapua mag. I don't understand why.
