    Where should the fly holder send his paperwork? Is an emailed copy acceptable? I’m guessing it’s not a C&R gun. The shipping address is Leesburg, Virginia 20175.what would postage be?

    Howdy, I have 100 Barnes Solids in .509 (I forget what weight they are...but nothing in that caliber is light). I resize these for my 505 Gibbs, which actually is a .505. They're in 50 packs...so I'd sell 50 or 100 to you for 75 cents/each. Postage would be $8 or so.

    Big bore practice ammunition

    Cast bullets with gas checks work nicely...in 416 Rigby and 505 Gibbs. Found a bunch online by Barnes for 30 cents/each...a real bargain.

    Trump Tweets About Farm Murders

    Overreacting? Rapes of white Afrikaner women, murdering families, communist leaders singing “kill the boers”...am I missing something? When does the situation rate a dire warning? Making mugabe and the MauMaus look reasonable. Very sad SA became the country G. Butalezi warned DeKlerk...

    Trump Tweets About Farm Murders

    I’ve written off Zimbabwe, South Africa and now even Namibia with their mugabe wanna-be stealing land from whites to give to black losers...oh, the “original owners”. Pathetic...going where the natives want to kill you...what part of that isn’t like a Jew attending a Nuremberg rally in 1938 for...

    Blaser R93 9.3x62 Barrel For Sale

    I love .375's....I've got smaller in my R93....25-06 and 9.3x62 (2 barrels in this caliber, 1 more than I need). An awfully light rifle for a .375....bet that's interesting.

    Blaser R93 9.3x62 Barrel For Sale

    The barrel is a standard contour. Sorry, no scope mount for sale. I use my scope mount for my other barrels. Lots of after-market scope mounts, cheaper than the Blaser ones...with picatinny rails too!

    Namibia Land Reform

    Well, gave up on Rhodesia, then South Africa...won’t support racist communist thugs. Namibia was a shining star (or at least not the dung heap SA and Rhodesia chose to become). 50% of arable land being stolen to give to blacks...because they’ll vote for Geingob and his fellow travelers. Real...

    New Zealand Council Plans To Ban All Pet Cats In Bid To Protect Native Bird Species

    The Pennsylvania game book used to request any cats seen in the woods be shot since they are the #1 killer of wildlife in the state. In Virginia, wild cats are everywhere, amazing inbreeding going on. If a barn owner puts out food for their "official" barn cats, and a pack of the wild cats eat...

    1903 Mannlicher Schoenauer 6.5x54, Questions

    Lovely rifles, and factory ammo is fairly easily available. I’ve got a 1905 & 1908 Mannlichers...painfully accurate. The 1905 was my grandfather’s and I got to use it tagging along on safaris when I was a kid. Great rifles...shoot it, they’re tough rifles and the scopes can be rebuilt.

    A zebra saw himself in a pond and wondered if he was white with black stripes or black with white stripes. So, he went to the wise giraffe and asked, “Oh ,wise giraffe, am I really white with black stripes or black with white stripes?’ The giraffe looked confused, pondered a while and said...

    Is South Africa Going The Way Of Zimbabwe?

    Sorry, but S.A. is already there....it's just the Rhodesia has gotten worse (amazing it could, but Mugabe is evil enough to do it). Who's to blame for Rhodesia? The United States...Henry Kissinger was one of the big destroyers and quislings of the Rhodesian government, who were trying to...

    Why Men Trophy Hunt

    Phew...what a biased and totally "full of scata" blather about what the author calls an, "otherwise perplexing activity". They've sure hung their hat on "signaling" and show their belief of hunters (and males in general) as being "look at me...I shot a rare and big critter". Oh for allah's...

    Why are Weatherby guns in 375+ calibers not liked on a Safari?

    I'll admit, playing with larger bores on the bench is not a good thing. I've got a hydraulic rifle rest that'll handle up to and including a 50 BMG. None of the lead sled weighing it down. Sure makes sighting in scope and checking my loads for accuracy a cinch.

    505 Gibbs Cheap (relatively) Brass

    $200 for dies is truly special too! Definitely agree there. Luckily found some good cast lead/gas checked bullets for 20 cents/each. Cheap plinking rounds and practice with stuff that goes bang. 375 H&H and even 416 Rigby seem cheap by comparison. Graf & Sons has some 505 Gibbs loaded...

    Why are Weatherby guns in 375+ calibers not liked on a Safari?

    A good rifle is one you can hit with....and not be twitching like you developed St. Vitas Dance. Weatherby rifles are not my style...sort of 1950's pimp. I always liked the comment of waiting for a Weatherby rifle to come out with a stock showing a, "One eyed whore sitting in an outhouse...

    South Africa president seeks approval to take white owned land

    Read "Into the Cannibals Pot". I have friends in SA...I hear from them the stories of the crime, "farmers" being slaughtered, rapes and murders...as Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan, late of NY said, "You are entitled to your own opinion, you are not entitled to your own facts."

    505 Gibbs Cheap (relatively) Brass

    For reloaders, 505 Gibbs brass is an expensive proposition...Natchez Shooting has Jamison 505 Gibbs new brass for $191/100 cases. Under $2/case is a real buy nowadays.

    South Africa president seeks approval to take white owned land

    Remember, they're taking more than land, they're torturing/raping/killing Whites (Boers, Farmers etc.) South Africa and Rhodesia are in full genocide against whites. Obscene how the USA will take thousands of Somalis/muslims with nothing to offer but won't accept Afrikaners or Rhodesians...

    Next step up?

    Phew, that's scary there's no adjustment...I hope the eye relief is good when you naturally shoulder your rifle...vs. having to make a mental adjustment when you shoot.
  39. Trakehner

    Next step up?

    A lot of scopes don't have that much eye relief (some are downright scary). People who shoot light kickers (AR-15s, 243 etc.) get used to getting way too close...bad habits that don't bite you on a light kicker. Some lean back looking like a drawing from 1880, because with .22s they can with...
  40. Trakehner

    Next step up?

    Scopes are killers for people used to light kicking rifles. Brought a friend out and worked him through calibers....338 Winmag, 338 Lapua, 375H&H, 416 Rigby, 458 Winmag and 505 Gibbs. Started him with the Lapua..soft kicking due to the suppressor on the front with big NF scope. Next the .338...
  41. Trakehner

    Next step up?

    With a good weight rifle, the 505 is a lot more pleasant than the 458 Lott or 460 Weatherby...they have a much sharper kick (at least to me). I think one of the more miserable guns I've shot have been one of those light 300 Win Mag mountain sort of rifles...jeeze, a fast sharp kick. A nice...

    Howdy from Ol' Virginy

    Leaving NOVA (Northern VA) for Colorado...culture shock. I'm jealous of someone building their own fun guns....What types of stocks do you plan for the .375 & 416? I lucked out with my 416, grandfather had a builder who had a nice piece of wood that is still strong with the figure lacking in...
  43. Trakehner

    Next step up?

    It depends...don'tcha just hate that weasel saying. I prefer lower pressure rounds, less sharp recoil and a bigger slower push. Like my 416 Rigby and a 505 Gibbs. I homeload, so the 505 is easier to reload than the 500 Jeffrey (also, much lower pressure round). I love my 416 Rigby (my...

    9mm Mannlicher 1905 M Rifle

    It's basically a 35 Remington (in fact, uses the same projectiles). Easy to reload, you can make brass out of 8mm Mauser (which is an 8x57). You can just shoot an 8mm Mauser out of it, fire forming the cases and you may no even have to trim the cases 56mm vs. 57mm. Just make sure you use...

    Howdy from Ol' Virginy

    It's tough when dealing with delicate flowers, eh? I just carried it, never shot it till I was much older. My grandfather gave me the choice to carry the rifle...and jeeze it was heavy (actually, I just weighed it...12.5 pounds w/o scope). Heck, the book bags kids carry weigh that much or...
