I got a feed to a story about Scott van Zyl this morning.

I do not even have words for the people speaking ill of him.

Never had the pleasure of meeting him, but I assume he is much like the rest of us: in it for the chase, win or lose. Mostly we win, but Scott threw snake eyes his last trip out. I'm sad for his family, but not for Scott. Lucky bastard went out doing something he loves doing.

I wish I could be as lucky as Scott van Zyl, and die doing something I love doing.
 
Jerome, don't know if you're aware or not, but they killed a few narrow-snouted gators (you folks call them crocodiles) in the neighborhood and are pretty well convinced that's what happened to him after discovering human DNA in their gullets.

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

Hello - I was looking at your post from several years ago regarding the Winchester 300 H&H. Any chance you still have the lefty M70 300 H&H for sale?
Thank you, Mike

An excellent AH member right here! I had a fantastic transaction with Hornedfrogbbq (I was the seller). His communication was first rate, payment was extremely fast, and I would have absolutely no reservations at all dealing with him again. Thank you, F!
Here we are, the last day of the show in Denver, it's been a good show but expecting a quiet day today. I will be back for-sure to do this show next year and maybe also do the one in Sacramento California.

On Monday I will be hitting the road driving from Denver and eventually make it down to Atlanta for the flight home.

its going to be a good year!
