    416 Rem Mag vs 404 Jeffrey

    When shooting game, you don't feel the recoil . . . I've been married twice, I'm numb to recoil anyway. I love the romance and nostalgia of African cartridges, but I hunt with a Blaser R93, so the Remington gets my vote. Sent from my SM-G965U using AfricaHunting mobile app

    Ruger obviously produces special runs for dealers. Maybe we can coordinate, through a dealer like Lipsey, a run of 275 chambered rifles for people who belong to this site ?

    Best rifle for women

    Lots of really sound advise given. Obviously, JimP is the sharpest of the bunch. Who said you only get one rifle ? Seriously look at Blaser rifles. Been hunting with them for about 20 years and the baggage gorillas haven't stolen one or damaged one yet.

    Fantastic Article - A must read for all of you so called experts

    That's what I remember. I once used a 22/250 with 60 grain Nosler bullets to shoot a deer in the Kerrville area of Texas. We were out hunting varmints when a nice 10 point walked out at about 70 yards. I did it, once. When better cartridges are available, why ?

    Scope or Open Sights for Elephant

    When I travel, I always take a Blaser rifle. I state that because JamesJ made a good point about people who pontificate but who've never shot an elephant. I shot an R93 in 416 Remington and used it in 2003 to take my elephant in the south Dande area of Zimbabwe. The scope mount is quick...

    Sir, I agree with you. All very nice, but we, on this channel look and enjoy differently from the people on Buzzfeed. I'm sure that anyone who had a successful trip to Kamchatka or Tajikistan would have an opinion. Anyway, cheers to South Africa . . . BUT, I would strongly suggest...

    Reality Check, Sad News

    Like so many others who read this forum, I have a desire to own and hunt with the 416 Rigby chambered in a real Rigby rifle. Unfortunately, I live in New York and have contracted "New York-itis". Hence, I hunt with Blaser rifles because baggage gorillas and thieves are unaware that there is a...
