    3 Cartridge to Hunt Worldwide

    Reading the article, the author is clear that dropping down from a 375 is recommended only for NA. For me it’s 223, 30-06, 375, 12G, withe 22 and 308 for relatively inexpensive practice

    Wedding etiquette?

    I would never pay her cash to attend the wedding. If she has what she needs or can afford it, she’ll say yes or otherwise decline. If you are concerned what she might show up in - that is about you. Dress generally has become extremely in formal.

    Blaser vs Rigby

    Of course we all know Mauser is part of Blaser group.

    Blaser vs Rigby

    I own both and both can be awesome. It’s not a debate with a right answer, it’s a discussion of preference. Despite anecdotal stories told here, there are many actual field reports on the forum by PH in favor of the R8. It’s reliability is well established. The Mauser was proven in war and has...

    Rechambering Model 70 Safari Express in .458 Win Mag to .458 Lott

    Who here, if you did not presently own a 458, would choose the WM over the Lott?

    12 ga. .690 Round Ball

    Other forums suggest the molds are ITAR but that the mold vendors have paid the fee and so are successful. You and I likely cannot. It's a messed up world.

    12 ga. .690 Round Ball

    I pretty sure they are ITAR

    12 ga. .690 Round Ball

    Those look awesome. Are you using the RCBS brass 12G dies are something else?

    Does Plaid Work As Well As Camo?

    Same. Fieldcraft wins every time.

    Does Plaid Work As Well As Camo?

    How do we know camouflage really works better than plaid and tweed? With game. I've never sensed a difference.

    Does Plaid Work As Well As Camo?

    And traditional tweed, despite local variations, is dyed from natural local others (probably some synthetic now). But they blend very well in most situations.

    Scope for a dangerous game rifle

    For close in, I always preferred open sights. My eyes are not as good now and I went for the Blaser RD 20. Yes it’s it’s a red dot tube but a very large diameter - I can acquire it much faster than the more traditional RMR sights, of which I also have many. For me it’s good from zero to 100...

    10mm auto new pistol which one?

    I understand regarding ZEV triggers and Glocks; I tried them. The best striker trigger did not work as well for me as the best classic P series for SIGs. I don't care for the P320 trigger either but still have a few 320/365 for other reasons. Not trying to start a Glock vs SIG thread; both are...

    10mm auto new pistol which one?

    Well, I've got three of the P220/10, two are legion. I find the Legion trigger results in much better accuracy - for me. I have the G20 and never mastered the trigger

    Blaser R8 Kit For Sale

    Many of us have lots of R8 get and the lego-like quality means we are often buying parts. I'd pick up trigger groups and bolts easily. maybe the reciever. 223 and 375 are fairly common barrels many already have. It's a pain but you'll probably do better/faster parting it out

    How will the looting in Durban impact SA hunting?

    The videos coming through are pretty bad - citizens shooting at the looters/rioters. Any insight? I have a hunt in tow months

    Perfect. I may have to drive to PA to try them myself.

    Kreighoff Classic with 20G barrels

    Not so much shotgun snob but I do like German shotguns for SC and upland. In this case, strategizing how to bring a shotgun along as well as two rifles. The problem is I can't find anyone who has these barrels and I've not seen them at SCI to ask

    Kreighoff Classic with 20G barrels

    I am interested in anyone's experience with this configuration. Because it is one strategy to take a shotgun to Africa without adding another gun to the paperwork.

    For Sale Remington 541S Custom Sporter 22lr

    Let’s not forget Kimber Superamerica - which I sold for $2k. An amazing sub 1” gun with any reasonable ammo. Nor the old Remington 51X which are almost free and still tack drivers. Both sold to add the .22 and .223 barrels to my Blaser addiction for reasons earlier stated. But a dedicated .22 of...

    375 H&H scope

    Pricey, but I use the Blaser RD20 for inside 100 yds with the .375. Occasionally I put on the 1x7 if I'm looking for more range.

    Reliability of single-shot rifles

    Given what you have described, the R8, with suitable duplicates of bolt head group, FCU should solve your reliability questions. Likely you'll never need the, but the R8 allow one to easily change many of the parts that might go wrong, exchange them is no tools, at light weight.
