Good Evening and Merry Christmas to all who celebrate the holiday. While I don't hunt Africa yet nor intend to in the near future, I do collect firearms and have recently started acquiring several big bore rifles. I often find myself lurking on AH researching guns I'm looking at prior to purchasing and thought it was time to go ahead and make an account and introduce myself. We move often but are currently living in the Midwest and plan to stay here for a bit. We are avid hunters and fisherman and looking forward to acquiring some land near our new home where we can continue to pursue our hobbies when we are able to escape from work. Hope to connect with many of you in the future, be it virtually or otherwise.

Welcome to AH and Merry Christmas
 
Snowball, welcome to the forum! It sounds like you should fit right in. If you spend much time here, I believe you will have to take your big bores to Africa. Just my guess. It will be tough to resist.
Have a grand Christmas and I hope Santa leaves you lots of big bore ammo to shoot!
 
:S Welcome: to AH and Merry Christmas!
 
Giday snowball and welcome to the A H fourms. A very merry christmas to you and yours
 
Welcome aboard!
 
Welcome to AH Snowball! And Merry Christmas!
 
Glad to have you aboard! Happy Holidays, welcome to the site
 
Dittos. Glad you decided to join and begin posting. Big bores are an addiction perhaps even an affliction. What calibers float your boat? What would you like to use them on? The answers to those questions is the beginning of a "plan." I'm betting you will be off to Africa sooner than you previously thought.
 
Welcome to AH !
 
Just across the river from you in Minnesota. We moved here a couple months ago and still getting settled in.
(y) I spent the first 40 years of my days in WI close to the border. Also lived and worked in MN and SD since. Many many friends and contacts all over the Midwest. If there is anything I can help with just PM me, I’ll do what I can.
 
Welcome! Another Minnesota person here.
 
Welcome to AH!

thanks for your reply bob , is it feasible to build a 444 on a P14/M17 , or is the no4 enfield easier to build? i know where i can buy a lothar walther barrel in 44, 1-38 twist , but i think with a barrel crown of .650" the profile is too light .
