54. In 2023. Zimbabwe. Was supposed to be my midlife crisis once in a lifetime trip. Planning on going back in 2025.

I’ve used these in my 7 saum to take brown bear, moose,elk,whitetail deer, coyotes, kudu,impala,hyena & bushbuck. They work

Never seen a scope mounted by the front bell like that. Nice looking rifle. Good luck with the sale.

I did not with the tsx. We Found both of them of course the 1 was stuck in the spine the petals had came off of it. The 1st shot through the lungs we found stuck in between the ribs on the off side. And was the classic mushroom of the tsx. I’m using rl15 out of a 24 inch barrel.

Cut Down on Leeds. Lol

375 H&H 300 gr tsx hand loads at 2,641 fps 1st shot broadside at 90 yards took out both lungs just above the heart. 2nd shot anchored him with a spine shot at about a 140 yards running though brush quartering away.

I personally have seen this rifle in Zim. It is a beautiful rifle. Good luck with sale. It shouldn’t last long.

Have you cleaned the chamber? Could be some dirt or other build up in it.

Thank god. Someone finally bought this. I’ve wrote out a half dozen times in his dm’s I’d take it. Just couldn’t push the send button. Lol

Congratulations. Your pictures and story brings back great memories of my first safari with them last august.I also hunted with Dalton and had my buff down 3 hours into the 1st day. Dalton & York have a great camp and crew. Absolutely loved every minute over there with them. My once in a...

I put anti seize on the threads of mine to keep them from carbon locking. On both Direct threads and quick detach and the front caps.

Awesome. Very nice

I applaud you for wanting to learn. We were all there at one time.

7mm rem mag with 168’s will out shine a 300 ultra mag with 180’s past 600 yards. With a lot less recoil.

Actually in trap you get no bonus points or handicap shooting against a 12 gauge. Skeet has its own gauge classes. Trap does not. But if you choose to shoot a 410 against a 12 gauge you are a fool. But now you have switched to shotguns which doesn’t translate into rifles.

Go with the 7 mm it’ll out do the 300’s past 600 yards with less recoil as John the guy in the video you originally showed proposes.

I see the 308 brung up a few times. Maybe because that’s what our military snipers were issued and people think that’s a sniper round must be a great round. Most snipers hate the 308 and 50 bmg. They are not the best tool for long range shooting. The king of 2 miles I don’t believe has never...

Stir the pot. Most 50 big loads are steel core. Strictly for long range punch through steel loads. Like going through the block of an engine. Like anti tank rounds. The 105 gr Berger in the 243 was much more suitable for the task and taking the elk without wounding than the 50 bmg

He can do it and has done it with a 7 saum. But if continued time after time skills will diminish with bad habits and knowing subconsciously that he’s going to get punished with every trigger pull. Exactly the reason John had that lady and his step son start out with a 243. To learn to shoot...

Have been to the range when one group is struggling to hit a 10” amauture plate at 400 yards of a rest on a concrete bench and someone shows up and grabs there 22 creed coyote gun out of the truck and puts there swagger bipod on and runs the pro plates 2”x200 3”x300 4”at 400 5”x500 6”x600 yards...

So the guy doing the instructions is John Burns. He was the host of the original Best of the west tv show. Before him and the Davidson brothers and John Porter went their own ways. He is a very accomplished marksman that burns a couple barrels a year out. He really promotes the high shoulder...

Wenig gunstocks out of Lincoln Missouri can do it.

Very nice. Congratulations

I’d be interested in getting together. Got flights and rooms booked already.

Probably won’t do a fly in diy moose hunt in the wood tik chik state park in Alaska. Had to shoot a Brown bear in self defense and had to call the local game warden- state trooper on the 1st day of moose season. Got hassled more in 14 days than I’ve ever been hassled in 45 years in the lower...

Yes

My 97 375 H&H doing what it was intended to do in Zimbabwe this year. Good luck with your sale. Awesome guns.

Beautiful gun.

I’m pretty sure that’s going to have more recoil than I’d like.

So what grain bullets are you looking to run in this? And at what velocity? Beautiful rifle by the way.

Just buy the Lee die set. It comes with the crimp die. Reloader 15 from the Barnes reloading manual with 300 gr tsx

Rare Breed you should have the guy that built that beautiful 375 H&H that you have build it. That thing is outstanding.

Rl 15 is what I’m use. 2,641 fps out of my Dakota rifle. 300 gr tsx

I use rl 15 with a 300 gr tsx at 2,610. Cloverleafs em out of my Dakota

Check out and search on YouTube precision rifle series. Or prs them folks got that long range shooting off of various objects under time with movement often engaging multiple targets at various distances down. If you’d like to get practiced up and more proficient in hunting scenarios check...

Wow quite a lot of pucker factor right there. Congratulations again on another fine hunt. That’s why them PH’s make the big bucks. To save our assets when things go south.

Congratulations. Nice shooting. Craig

Great Bull. Getting there and back sucks. But what a pleasure to meet you and the others in camp. Enjoyed your write up.

Yeah I think that foot terrorist is going to stick my friend. Lol. Sounds like an awesome hunt. Great meeting you guys in camp. Rich.

That is pretty cool looking. Unique for sure.

Beautiful gun. Nice shooting. Wow that thing packs a wallop.

love the 7mm 180 gr hunters out of my 7 saum at 2,800 fps. Have used them and have worked extremely well on moose at 338 yards, Brown bear at 20 yards, elk at 90 yards, coyote at 601 yards, deer at 35 yards, impala from 80 yards to 300 yards. Bushbuck at 15 yards to kudu at 50 yards. Just in...

59 1/2, 60 1/2 with Dalton & York safaris last week in the ume.

When traveling abroad and where tens of thousands of dollars are involved. Perhaps travelers insurance is money well spent. In case a trip would be cancelled due to unforeseen circumstances.

Looking forward to it. It’s my first safari. We leave July 29th.

This is why I’m thinking about not wasting my money on taxidermy on my upcoming safari. I’ve already got deer and elk mounts. As I get older I realize they don’t mean much to anyone but me. So I’m thinking I’ll save the taxidermy bill and the export expenses for something else. I think some...

This is my first trip out of country. To say I was nervous with this all going on would probably be an understatement. But both Dalton and York have assured me we are going to have a hunt of a lifetime. I really appreciate that they have taken the time to assure me that everything is going to be...

Wonderful looking forward to seeing you guys in a couple weeks.

I’m not sure I’m as good with words as a lot of these folks are. But I’ll definitely share the best I can. Can’t wait to hear more on this hunt we are following.
