One of the best things to come along for traveling hunters in my opinion is the Airline Apps baggage tracking feature. Knowing your gun case was scanned onto the plane is a great reassurance that as you kick back for that first movie and adult beverage all is well with your bags! Just make sure you make note of the tag number for the suitcase versus the gun case so you will know which is which.
The first experience I had with this feature was with Delta. They have a great system and others have followed suit. Finally American has a similar feature after years of junk features that didn’t work.
The problem I have is switching airlines and then the app may not work correctly. For instance on my last Safari I had AA on the first two flights then on to Delta. The AA numbers won’t go in the Delta system.
I wonder if some of you can share your experiences in this regard? What airlines have you used the baggage tracking features and how well did it work for you?
Regards,
Philip

Just wanted to say thanks for the excellent customer service. Ordered some 9.3x62 brass and the delivery was a little short. An email through your website Contact Us link was replied to the next day with the tracking info for the correction. Good pricing coupled with great customer service will see returning customers every time. Thanks again!

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
