Welcome aboard Stig.
We have some fantastic plains game packages as well as cull packages should you be interested in that.
Send us an e-mail and tell us what you are interested in and we can work out a package for you.
We've had a few hunters from Norway and you can contact them anytime for reference.

Sincerely

Stig, the day I bought my Model 71 from a friend, went to a local gun store on the way home and tried to buy ammo for it. The proprietor told me that "Winchester hasn't made ammo for that gun in years." My heart sank, I thought I bought a wall-hanger. When I got home and on my computer, I found that I could get brass and bullets. I ordered them and a set of Redding dies that evening. All is well.

Good to hear There seems to be both bullets and brass available to me in Norway. I am just missing the "launch plattform" Some day, maybe.

I have been a lurker her for a few months. Have learned a lot from many knowledgeable people. Hope to contribute to this great forum.

I have been a hunter and a fisherman/outdoorsman for my entire life ( just turned 50). Trout fishing/freshwater fishing and hunting for caribou an deer.

After having read a lot of books about Africa and read huntingreports in this forum a small dream of hunting Africa has been born.

Welcome Squarehead!! Thats what we affectionately call Norwegians in the Seattle area called Ballard in Washington State. You may have heard the name, LOL.
I worked in a shipyard there for years and many of our customers were from "the old country" and some still barely spoke English!

I had forgotten about the Trolls. I remember now watching a documentary about setting A in place. It was absolutely fascinating!
According to Wiki above it was the tallest and second heaviest structure moved by man, another rig was slightly heavier.

@sestoppelman I have not heard Squearehead before, but no doubt it fit

You are correct, of corse. I havent been on the Trolls for a long time. I remember with some sense of awe lookin down almost 300 meters inside on of the concrete legs.

And thanks again to all the nice welcomes!

Welcome Stig! Please, find the time to talk about caribou (or reindeer). It is an animal I read about but never saw.
