Welcome to AH Captain Jack! looking forward to having you participating.

Thanks! And thank you for running such an interesting forum. I'll do my best to provide some sort of value here...

Welcome. Sounds like we are gonna have a full table for a meet up at a local watering hole soon.

Hey everyone,

I live in northern Wyo and have been an avid elk hunter since the age of 12. Been dreaming about hunting in Africa since a similar age, and finally am in a place financially and in terms of my work schedule where that's actually feasible. I'm shooting for a trip in 2025.

I've also been a bit of a "firearms enthusiast" (read: gun nut) my entire life, and have been handloading, shooting at long to extreme ranges, and generally messing around with various firearms since my teens. The high velocity, ultra-low-drag long-range stuff doesn't really interest me that much anymore; big bore bolts and doubles do (as do single action revolvers, but that's another story). In that vein, I'm looking to pick up my first .375 H&H bolt gun in the near future, CRF of some type, probably either a Ruger M77 or a newer Model 70. Something to ease me into the safari rifle world, shoot a few elk with (why not), and hopefully take to Africa before too long.

At any rate I look forward to being a part of the forum!

Don’t you 3 county guys just say “Meet me at the Mint”?
