I've been meaning to post this report for a little while but life got in the way as it tends to do. The wife and I returned to Rockin G this past October for our 1st anniversary hunt after hunting the previous year on our "honeymoon". Once again the lodge, food, and people were all fantastic...

This report is a little delayed, but I wanted to share my honeymoon hunt at the Rockin G Ranch. I've been less active on here the past couple years. Life got in the way and quite a bit has happened. Got divorced, switched jobs a few times due to buyouts, got married to a wonderful woman who's...

Warning, this will be a long post! Outfitter – @Nyamazana Safaris Dates – 8/22-9/6 PH – Dean Cook Location – near Marula, Zimbabwe Rifles – Remington 700 Ltd (30-06, 180gr Swift A-Frames), Ruger RSM (375 H&H, 300gr A-Frames) Travel Day 1 & 2 (8/19-8/20) SO I jumped on a deal that Wayne had...

So I finally purchased some reloading equipment. I got the RCBS Rock Chucker Supreme kit (with the help of some Bass Pro points). I'm looking for some recommendations for what other equipment might be helpful as I start reloading, or any tips/tricks others have picked up. Thanks in advance!

Had the opportunity to go hunt some low fence/free range Axis this summer, and of course I was all over it. Axis might be my favorite animal to hunt here in the States. I also had the experience of guiding my wife and a buddy of mine. First buck - made a great stalk while hunting with another...

Ok, so this is a little overdue. I've been swamped at work and I've been putting this off for a while, but I'm sitting in an airport waiting so it's as good a time as any to start. We originally won this hunt during a Friends of the NRA dinner in April of 2017 on a silent auction. After...

Not sure if there are any other US Rugby fans, but they just won their first ever World Sevens Series title

I have 4 tickets to the Tuesday practice round (April 3rd), however I will just be getting back from S. Africa and can't afford to take any more time off. If anyone is interested please PM me. Right now stubhub has them running between $750-850/ticket plus all their fees.

Anyone have experience with Coppersmith in Chicago? Any particular agent that was extremely helpful? I'm probably going to use them for my upcoming trip, and planned to have my stuff shipped to Chicago as I'm hoping to use @The Artistry of Wildlife for my taxidermy.

Alright, so I'll be meeting some family down in Corpus Christi for the holiday. I want to do some fishing one day, probably Thursday or Friday. Anybody have any recommendations for guides out of Corpus or Port Aransas?

Need some recommendations for 7mm Rem Mag ammo for a new Browning B78 I just picked up. Don't reload, so looking for a good factory load.

So I just picked up a 35 Whelen - need some recommendations for ammo. To start with, I don't reload (as of yet) so really looking for good factory loads to try (or custom loaded stuff i.e. Hendershots etc).

Did a little culling a few weeks back. The rancher who owns the deer lease I'm on has another bit of acreage he leases to some other folks. They apparently don't care for these axis deer that have showed up over the past 5-7 years. I guess the axis are much more aggressive than whitetails...

Well, another auction and 3 more rifles. First is a Remington Model 720 in .270 Win. From my research, it appears only about 2500 of this model were ever made, most of which are in .30-06. Apparently the production was halted/abandoned during WWII. This one appears to be circa 1942. Next...

Well, I finally got my blackbuck back from the taxidermist. I'm pretty happy with how it turned out.

Hippo's killed in Niger? Read something just now on a village that had "massacred" 27 hippos due to attacks on people and destroying crops. Being new to hunting in Africa, does Niger allow hunting? Seems like something that hunting could have helped control the population. Article below...

Alright, since I went to Alaska for a few weeks and did a little fishing I figured I would get some practice in for my report writing skills. The majority of the trip was a cruise, followed by 4 days at Kenai Riverside Lodge. The lodge was great. Nothing fancy – no TV, WiFi, and only spotty...

Well, I've been addicted to this site for about a month now. Jerome somehow brainwashed me into becoming a supporter (or maybe that was the scotch). And I've been leaving smartass comments all over the forums. After a reply to a post about dip/pack/transport costs from @akeate inquiring about...

Anyone have one of these scopes? I've never bought Sig optics before, just wondering what people thought of them. Had the opportunity to pick up the 2-12x40 for a decent price (about half of MSRP)
