No a 90 grain Speer with a max load
@Dr Ray
I didn't realise us black fellas made Speers that light. What do they make them out of balsa wood up your way.
Down here we make Speers out of good quality wood like iron wood then fire hardened the tip.
Now these would work better in pigs than a 243.

Now Bob don’t be like that

I used the 243 on pigs [emoji241] to and goats [emoji238]for a long time and then I used a 30:06 and then the magnificent, the mighty 270

@Dr Ray
That's why you now have a 25-06 because you realise it is even better than the 270.

25/06 shoots a lot “flatter” but I’ve only used it on one fallow
Have so many calibers I just don’t get to use many [emoji414][emoji23][emoji23]
 
That's what she said.
Me: l'm going hunting this weekend, you want to join me or not.

And that's how the divorce started.
You’ve got to get that straight BEFORE getting married!
 
Effeminate American men carry = A Fanny Pack
European Weird men carry = A bum bag

Either way, its still pretty gay.

My actual favorite though when it comes to a completely abused language:

Brits saying Brilliant in a sentence: "Making that left turn back then was absolutely brilliant!". Translation, you literally saved us two minutes on the roads.

American teacher using brilliant in a sentence: "Your child is brilliant, we recommend you sell your home and possessions so they can fulfill their destiny at Princeton".


(FYI brits...if an American says something is brilliant, it means something, when you say it its a synonym for adequate)
Yes and another one is if an American says they are pissed, it means mad but British means intoxicated.

Hey my friend, I am returning to SA for a Cape Buffalo hunt in June 26. My outfitter has suggested Highveld but I have read some poor reports. Wondering how satisfied you were with your mounts from them? Thanks in advance.
Finally back to somewhat normal I missed reading the messages and posts
Remember I will be at the ISE show in Denver Colorado for 8-12 January, and after the show I will be available for meetings anywhere in the USA I will traveling around to meet with old and new clients, let me know and we will set up a meeting!
Beautiful Aardwolf for our Spanish client and good friend Alberto

Hi PaulB,
I have a Ballard Arms Model 1885 chambered for .333 Jeffery Flanged. Do you have any idea where I can get ammo for this?

I am new to this forum so I am sorry if I am doing something wrong!
Thank You!
