  • Over did my 420 Character limit. I live out in Unalaska but pass through Anchorage fairly often would be great to grab a beer and swap stories sometime.
    Hello, You replied to my scope recommendation a while back and you recommended 400 gr swift A-frames in a 458 lott. As a big fan of the A-Frames already
    I decided to take your advice and was curious if you had any load data for them or if you bought factory rounds from swift.
    Velo Dog, I just saw that you are in AK. I was in Fairbanks from 00-03 and Kenai from 03-07. I'm sorry we did not connect up there!

    Yes, would've been fun do meet up and discuss hunting, fishing, guns and gear.
    Where do you live now ?

    We moved from Kenai to Alabama in 2006/7. I was running the nitrogen complex in North Kenai and the company transferred me to a new role in Bama. I wasn't financially ready to retire or I would have turned them down flat. We loved living in Alaska. Prior to Alaska we lived in Wyoming for 9 years so I've been a little spoiled.
    I spent most of my money on proper rifles and big game hunting, the rest I just wasted.
    Hi Velo, I am thinking about a non trophy ele hunt in Namibia. Do you have any outfitter recommendations? Thanks Ado

    Hi Ado,
    I will research my past emails, as I recall an outfit that was offering what seemed like a good elephant deal in The Caprivi awhile back.
    When I find it I will send you their contact info.
    Cheers,

    I know you like the Hornady 220gr RN in 30 cal. Midway has some blems on their site for 20 cents apiece!

    Better go get some buddy!

    Thanks Tim.
    I really appreciate this and will bag a supply for them for my PH friend who plans to be here in a few days.
    He will no doubt be very happy to bring them back to his place for culling and his personal "shooting for biltong".
    Cheers,
    Paul.

    Excellent! A man cannot have too many bullets!
    Hi Velo dog, only had a look at the site this evening.
    Sorry I did not send you a PM, most definitely. I had to look around to find you in the members list to PM you.
    I only turn 60 in September so senility isn't in it. :-)

    Cheers for now.

    No worries.
    I always enjoy your posts.
    Us older guys have to stick together (I am 61)
    Cheers.

Hi Jay,

Hope you're well.

I'm headed your way in January.

Attending SHOT Show has been a long time bucket list item for me.

Finally made it happen and I'm headed to Vegas.

I know you're some distance from Vegas - but would be keen to catch up if it works out.

Have a good one.

Mark
