The thought of going hunting in Africa is something that my dad and I started talking about, about 10 years ago. We would discuss what animals we would like to hunt and when and where we should go, but of course work seemed to always get in the way, so we always said “one day”. Unfortunately my dad passed away 4 years ago so his “one day” never came.
I am excited to say because of this forum I was able to find a nice hunt package offered by @3S Safaris so in less than a month I will for fill mine and his dream of going on safari in South Africa.

So sorry your dad can’t be with you. We have to “seize the day” because the day is only here once.
 
Very sorry to hear of your fathers passing. I wish you the best of luck on your safari!

Exactly!! I have a new perspective on life nowadays. Lots of people think that “one day” will always come but it may not for some.
 
Go for it! I lost my dad 9 years ago and truly sympathize with you. He taught me to hunt and about guns. I spoke about him in Trophy the film in how I wished he was here to see me hunt the Big 5. Maybe I should write a book: From the B.B. gun to the Big 5 my life as a hunter.

I have no doubt it would be a good read. I’d buy it!

I am righthanded, so not interested in the rifle, but I have a 375 RUM and 350 gr bullet loading data is very hard to come by. If you could reply with information regarding your loads I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you, Ray Boone, Leavenworth, WA

Hello - I was looking at your post from several years ago regarding the Winchester 300 H&H. Any chance you still have the lefty M70 300 H&H for sale?
Thank you, Mike

An excellent AH member right here! I had a fantastic transaction with Hornedfrogbbq (I was the seller). His communication was first rate, payment was extremely fast, and I would have absolutely no reservations at all dealing with him again. Thank you, F!
Here we are, the last day of the show in Denver, it's been a good show but expecting a quiet day today. I will be back for-sure to do this show next year and maybe also do the one in Sacramento California.

On Monday I will be hitting the road driving from Denver and eventually make it down to Atlanta for the flight home.

its going to be a good year!
