Greetings from the foothills of Boulder County!

Lifelong Colorado elk hunter, with experience hunting deer in Kansas and hogs in Texas.

I am a Research Engineer for a DoD contractor and a prior service active duty Army O3.

I am also a connoisseur of vintage firearms, with a moderate multinational collection of classic military/sporting pieces, and a strong appreciation of African hunting lore and equipment.

Depending on how things go, an African hunt could definitely be on my radar screen in the next decade or so, especially after my son gets some good elk experience under his belt.

[Edit to add that I joined last year, but did not get around to posting until today...]

Welcome to AH .455_Hunter! Hang here for a bit and you'll find yourself in Africa sooner than you thought!
 
Welcome on from CO.
Asking questions is the best way to get excited about going to Africa.
 
Welcome to AH from another (hate to admit this) Boulder County, CO member! I don’t know how old your son is, but my 12 year old granddaughter just got her hunters safety certificate and now she says she needs to go to Africa with me(y)! My next trip is suppose to be for lion, but I may have to change that!:eek:

See you are from Denmark - see quite a few Danes where I stalk in Scotland - great hunters.
The Harkilia stuff works well in Africa - I have a bit for use here in UK.
I am again looking for 600 Nitro dies preferably RCBS 1 inch. The set I purchased previously are 1 1/2 inch and do not fit my die. Another member has graciously taken them off my hands. If anyone happens to have a set of 600 Nitro Dies that will fit my Rockchucker Supreme RCBS press, please shoot me a message and thanks in advance for any assistance you may have to offer!
I have not posted any items for sale on this forum and will not every put anything for sale. My account was hacked and I've worked with the admin to get things shut down.
