As to the topic of slings, please give me some leeway as my entire life is in storage, again! I do not have access to my rifles, so I am not able to share the company name. There was a gentleman at DSC selling rubber slings. I bought several! A prior post mentioned Slogan slings but I am...

That little green gun is nice! What is she?

WOW! Nice deal.

I handled a Blaser at DSC in January. I did not know how to work it. Someone had to demonstrate the action to me. As a firm believer in muscle memory, switching to an unfamiliar action does not work for me. I appreciate many of the attributes unique to the Blaser but not enough to switch...

Very cool. I am confused about the scale, but I'm no guild guy!!!!

Awesome! The gun took a long time to find you and you made it your own. Put it to good use. I miss my Interarms that my x sold! Or is that stole?

I have synthetic too. Several rifles have both so I can swap them out. I am not opposed to hunting with synthetic but I like working on/building my wood stocks. Wood is far more sexy!!!!

Two others that I am working on.

I've been playing with the finish on this one for a while. This is Linseed oil and I am planning to change it to Tung oil.

.375 Ruger, .700NE, 8 bore, 4 bore Helped a buddy acquire the last of the last RCC Brass and I just had to show it off as it's soooo cool.

I'm a sucker for Fiddleback! Great choice with the #9 option.

Great scope choice. I have several. The complete build looks great and I'm sure it will function as you planned. Have a successful hunt.

You will need to thread your barrel for mm not 5/8 US if you wish to use a suppressor outside the US. My understanding is that you buy through your PH and leave it there.

Rich Rands Hats Well Slap my Momma! Love my hats. Ya'll just wait will I collects some hat pics......

Asking a quick question is one thing. A lengthy discussion is another. I feel that if you are sucking up the band width of this site you should send Gerome a paypal for it. I too have done business with PTG and have had both favorable and less favorable experiences with them. Chad cost me a...

This is a very lengthy post by non contributing members who choose to bash suggested vendors with whom they have apparently never done business.

PTG makes excellent aluminum which is what you say you are after. Sunny Hill makes stainless only.

Yup, probably more than one person!!!

Great set up!

Illuminated reticle???

4350 & 4831 with a 165 ish hunting bullet in a 1/8

What are you trying to achieve? Distance, speed, accuracy, lethality? Perhaps I missed your goal in this thread? 7 anything is my happy place!

Very jealous! I had the privilege of hunting with two older Indian docs. Of course they had their obligatory 7x57s! Their stories were something. You can self publish your book on Amazon. Outline, write, edit, proof, then send it out for more proof and editing. It is a great deal of work...

No love for a good Ghost ring? I'm not a red dot fan. I will not mount one on my EDC why would I consider one for a rifle?

My personal favorite! And, no, you can't have mine, but the Tikka sounds promising.

I don't believe A-Square offered checkering.

Now that is sexy!!

Nice write up Mark. Thanks for the info.

Howdy!

That goucho show is great! I thought my wife and I were the only ones crazy enough to venture out there. The street food was well worth the trip. The best part was our cab ride back to the city, our driver was pissed he was taking us so far and drove like a nut.

Sorry I didn't answer your question. Forget about the gun/knife stores. Knives are available everywhere. Go and eat! You can literally eat at a gas station better than you can eat at most restaurants in the US. Always drink bottled water and their beer is great. Do not forget WINE!

Beretta has a store, the Ralph Lauren store is worth the visit for the architecture. You will need to go to the Ricoletta District for shopping. Do not wear a flashy watch! Go to the Marina near the Women's bridge. There is an amazing lunch resturant there. I am gropping for the name. Plan...

Sorry to hear.

I believe my suggestion will be outside of most of this conversation but my .17 WSM within its wind constraints is a tack driver and proven killer.

All projectiles travel in an arc.

I am coming in late and not sure how I missed this. No rifle shoots flat. Review your ballistic tables. End of conversation.

@JPetroni Beautiful piece!

Why not go with a good break for your wife and properly equip you party with electronic ear protection? Weight problem and recoil solved! Just saying.

There is no reason to adjust your load for length.

You are leaving out critical factors! Are you just going with any old barrel? Have you given any thought to type of rifling cut? Douglas makes an excellent button rifled barrel. Brux and Bartlein are cut rifled. I use all three. A 12T is the standard. I prefer shorter barrels and use...

Which of the .375s?

I have them. I would consider donating some to a proper AH event at DSC. I will stipulate they may not be resold. Let me know.

Has anyone planned a cigar and drink evening? If so I have a new favorite cigar to bring.

Hmmm, vey tempting invitation. Ya'll are a bit of a ride outside of town though.

Udate: Happy to report that my action found a home here in Texas. It was bartered for some of the best BBQ I have had. The new owner (AH member) is crazy enough to own and shoot a .577 and wants to build another!

Most "heavy" barrels will not allow room for "flush cups". The stocks are not thick enough. Tactical rifles usually side mount the flush cups.

Ok, I know I said I would post a pic but after locating said item I must rescind my offer. Let's just say it was not well stored! If someone absolutely must have one I will send pics directly but it will be a heavy lift to make good again. Sorry to bait and switch.

I have an extensively molested Enfield (Action) that I will donate! Actually I will dig it out and post pics tomorrow. Unless this is frowned upon highest bid goes to the Africanhunting.com site with buyer paying shipping to a FFL in the USA. I am a FFL.
