Hi guys!

My name is Brett, and I’m from Michigan. I’ve mainly been able to hunt whitetail deer so far, but have also gone on a few bigger North American hunts for both Elk and Bear. I’m interested in planning an African safari someday for my wife and myself. I have been on the AH site as a guest reading forums for a while. Thought I’d make it official :).

Have a great weekend!
Brett
 
Good day, Brett! Welcome to AH!
Regards, Johan

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!

Made it to Augusta Georgia yesterday for a meeting, hunt bookings are looking good for 2026 and 2027, had a great time on our Alabama safari shot a rutting deer at 200 yards with 7mm PRC near Huntsville and then headed on to Butler Alabama and semi guided my first deer ever shot a very nice broken off 8 point with hunter there and spend a few days on 1100 acres hunting preserve awesome place!

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
