Noob from texas

Welcome to AH!
 
Welcome from a fellow Texan.
 
Live in Van Alstyne, up north of mckinney. Been up there a couple of years now. Was in Corinth before that.



Like most ppl in texas, white tail. Have been overly unsuccessful hunting them it feels like. Still fun though! I did get somewhat luck and took an aoudad out near possum kingdom. Other than that, mostly dove hunting. I am planning a diy hunt for black bear in the spring. We will see how it all goes. Currently, my "big bores" are the .375 ruger, .375 h&h, and a .416 rem mag. On the hunt for either a .416 rigby, .450 rigby, or a .458 lott, or maybe..... dang it! List keeps growing lol! Dream gun is a double in .470 NE. It's not so much a need as a want thing with me. I just enjoy them. I haven't ventured into reloading yet. I'm sure i will eventually though.

Just down the road 20 miles
 
Welcome to AH . Enjoy the forum

Welcome to the other side.
 
Hello everyone. Thought my first post should be an introduction. I’ve been reading here for a year or so. So much good info here. 35 y/o and basically a self taught hunter, still a lot to learn and whatnot. I’m not overly accomplished / experienced, but I’m having fun doing it regardless. My interests in hunting are growing and I plan on traveling to Africa within the next couple of years. As well as Europe I hope. Other than hunting, newest addiction is big bore rifles. Too much good info in some of these threads, kinda want them all now lol. Thanks ahead of time

Hi PaulB. Would you be interested in another WJ Jeffery .450/.400 NE 3". It's an extractor model and in superb condition, cased as well. Made in 1908. The rifle is here in Texas.
