I also had a cardboard box from Namibia in 22

This is correct, they share the same part number with the 6.5-300 Wby. Its safe to assume that any advertised new 416 Taylor dies from Lee are actually 6.5-300 Wby

What a great find. I frequent that store and would not have passed that up! I really like the stock lines.

I’m 37 and have been 3 times now. While finances and family life are certainly factors, I have many coworkers who can take the time off to go, as well as easily bring in extra side money to pay for it. I’ve only convinced one of them to go (he’s been twice now). I think many hunters in my age...

Another NECG vote. I much prefer the color and finish over Pachmayr

Yellow Shark!

I guess the link didn’t work

Hodgdon has a few loads you can use as starting points. My guess is that you’ll hit compression before max pressure with the TTSX. https://hodgdonreloading.com/rldc/?t=1

I’ve lived in the area for 17 years and never knew they existed. Thanks for sharing

My PH in Nam offered me one of the elephant at a scary low price. I can’t make it work timing wise but they are definitely allowing PH’s opportunity within their blocks

230 gr Oryx out of a .338 will work splendidly on your target animals, or any other plains game for that matter.

My apologies if you tried this already, but adjusting the diopter to your eye is really important for image clarity on 1x. Sometimes they come out of the box with it turned all the way in. If you can’t get it adjusted perfectly to your eye at 5-10 yds, send it back.

Ah you’re killing me. Wish I’d had this opportunity about 2 months ago

The M4 has big advantage in pinpoint accuracy in a hurry, even indoors in close quarters. I can only speak from the SWAT perspective, but most of our entry team members will be carrying a short barreled M4 in any given scenario. I have only cleared a building in a CQB scenario one time with a...

Nice gun. Shouldn’t last long

They are all the same length, but this article shows the differences in magazine box and side rails. The H&H had a little bit of the rear bridge cut out to lengthen the ejection port, but it’s mostly for ease of loading...

Lots of interest but still no takers. I’m willing to do $400 for a face to face deal in the Dallas area

The permit process is very simple, and you will have no trouble once it’s complete.

You need the permit. I’d say it’s 50/50 if they get it done in a week. I’ve had it happen, but there’s no guarantee

I’ve had some interest, but no takers yet. I’m willing to reduce the price for a FTF deal here in the metroplex.

Alright members, this is my first classified posting so try not to beat me up too bad! I’m clearing out some projects this month and this barreled action is first up. The receiver is an Interarms Mark X, but the bolt appears to be a military repurpose that had the handle cut/welded. When I...

I am considering doing this as well. Thanks for the info

You will be ok submitting a permit to Germany as others have instructed. I’ve found that it helps to have an invitation letter from your PH when you submit paperwork the for the transit permit. Last year I had my permit in less than two weeks and I had no issues in Frankfurt.

I would contact Titus with Yellow Shark. He is a member here and is your best bet for price and service out of Namibia. I also recommend Coppersmith for your import paperwork. The two companies communicate well and will handle everything for you.

Cervalleti is an appropriate thin pad https://www.hastingsdistribution.com/index.php?l=product_detail&p=366

My coworker had the same issue this year using miles. Qatar denied him and he elected to rent a firearm instead of buy flights through Qatar.

Both times I’ve been I went through Frankfurt. It’s easy to get guns through from Germany to Namibia as well. It’s about 26 hours travel if you time it well, and both flights are much easier than the 14 hours to Jberg if you buy the cheap seats like I do . The last trip I actually planned a...

I’ve killed 3 zebra, 2 oryx, blue wildebeest, and impala with the 130 gr CEB Raptor from a .300 wsm. Shock and trauma were excellent but penetration was definitely lacking on the zebra. [

I have a Gentry and I think it was worth the money

I’ll second that opinion. Brian will take good care of you.

this is true. If you call ahead they will add “firearm” to your booking and it will not require the fee UNLESS you exceed the standard baggage weight/size limit, or your number of free checked bags. You will not be able to check in on the app once “firearm” is on your booking. Also, be sure to...

Sights came out great

Those are factory spacers

I know the safari is epoxy bed. I’m sure the Alaskan at least has the lug epoxy bed

Well my crate is finally ready for pickup in Dallas and I’m glad this process is done. The initial outrageous quote was from Pronto Global, who I’ve debated on naming as the individual who I communicated with made none of these decisions. I contacted Pronto and told them I would not pay, and...

Nosler shows the top accuracy for all their tested powders under 250gr bullets as 55.0gr (max) of Varget. My Hornady manual does not list Varget in their data, and I’ve never shot the 250 rn, but they recommend a seating depth of 3.290 to the middle of the cannelure. Hodgdon has load data for...

A great place to start would be 50 gr of Varget and work your way up. Use Noslers load data for the 250 partition. I’m sure one of our fine forum members from the southern hemisphere will come charging in with a plethora of good information soon enough.

I’ve got a brown 1” pre fit pad for Ruger m77 II rifles and an extended modified Mobilchoke that need new homes

I will happily take those if you do

Very interesting, thanks for the reply. I wonder at what charge weight that really starts to matter at. Probably would be bad in a large volume case that isn’t densely charged. I have had no issues in an H&H case, but that isn’t high volume and the “safety” is certainly anecdotal evidence

Correct. They are used to size brass in two steps instead of one, which allows less stress to the case when forming a new cartridge and more accurate final dimensions. That is why the dies are so short. They make a similar set for sizing .416 Taylor from .458 win mag. My guess is that 7x61 is...

Yes! It’s basically just a CCI 250 with a slightly thicker cup. Works well in .375. Can’t tell you much after that as I still have Fed 215s but I would say if you’d use a 250 in a load, then the 34 will be fine.

The dies are an intermediate step to form 7x61 from .300 H&H brass.
