Welcome from another Montanan

I have two matching X-bolt rifles, mine are both the Hells Canyon model with 26” barrels. I shoot 180 gr Nosler Accubond Trophy Grade factory ammo in the .300 Win Mag, very accurate and have taken several elk and mule deer with it here in MT. My other x bolt is a 28 Nosler that I shoot 175 gr...

Montana Hunting Company has a good reputation, I’ve done elk and deer hunts with them in the past. They have several ranches for elk hunts with varying prices from reasonable to high end (ie, Ted Turner’s Flying D Ranch) which is pricey but you will definitely shoot a 350”+ bull there

Thanks for sharing, quite an interesting film

I bought a CZ 45[emoji643] American last year and it shoots really well

Hope you have a good trip, sounds like some great touring along with the hunt. My wife and I are wheels up on April 15th to hunt Roe deer north of Barcelona

@375Fox thanks for the info on your experience, very helpful. Good to know I can ask for the final billing in USD vs Euro, makes it much easier doing the wire transfer. The deposit invoice he sent was in Euro so I asked the bank to send him Euro so first I got hit with a crappy exchange rate...

Seeking input from anyone with prior experience hunting chamois in the Pyrenees. I'm headed to Barcelona and the Pyrenees this coming October to hunt chamois with Bruno Rosich of Trophy Hunting Spain. What was your experience like hunting in the Pyrenees and physical conditioning...

Well I pulled the trigger yesterday and sent Marius a deposit for a Carpathian chamois and wild boar hunt for Nov 2026. I know many on here have hunted various species with Marius and wanted to get some opinions from those who have been there. The hunt is primarily for chamois and I'm...

Welcome to AH, sounds like a good trip for your wife and you. I sent you a PM with thoughts and if you want to discuss anything I’m happy to help

Agree, some great folks here on AH. Last fall I got to meet @Rickmt when he kindly invited me to bring my young GSP in training up to his place to chase Hungarian partridge for the day, hope we get to do it again this fall. Also got to meet @375 Ruger Fan when he reached out to join him and...

Welcome to AH, look forward to reading your first hunt report

Welcome to AH

Scotland is a great country to visit, my wife and I are going back in June 2026 to hunt roe deer and tour. Culloden battlefield is an hour east of Inverness and an interesting site to visit, location of the Jacobite rebellion. I’ve always wanted to do the drive on the A9 north of Inverness on...

Now all of you enablers have me craving a No. 1. Saw several on Gunbroker with Mannlicher stocks, any thoughts on one with that stock option? Seems like something really different than any of my other rifles

My first car I had was a ‘68 Chevelle SS 396, bought it in 1975 and later foolishly sold it to buy a new Chevy Monza (what a piece of junk). Man, I would love to have that Chevelle again and fix it up, was in great shape when I had it. I’ll have to see if I can dig up a pic

@Mark Biggerstaff

Nice rifle, I’ve been looking for one of those as well. @MarkBiggerstaff, got any leads on another one of those .[emoji640][emoji637][emoji6[emoji640][emoji638]] Safari Expresses??

Congrats, so what is that new rifle? Looks like a Safari Express given the barrel band

Those would be great prices if he accepted that but I took it from his posts that the 500 and 250 were the numbered edition sizes not his price

Here is another, first kudu I shot in Limpopo in 2021. If I recall he was about 54 1/2”. About like my other from Botswana but the Botswana bull has much deeper curls which gives the extra length.

Welcome

My taxidermist in Helena MT, Monarch Taxidermy, recently posted on their Instagram page a story and several pics of a big Gabon Viper they mounted for a client, so you must be able to import snakes from Africa

Well I like my Brownings, bought to use not to collect. I shoot an X bolt Hells Canyon in 300 Win Mag more than any other rifle I own, my main elk and mule deer rifle in Montana and it shoots great and very accurate with factory Nosler TrophyGrade 180 gr Accubonds, taken several deer and elk...

Botswana June 2024 with NKWE Safaris, 58 1/2”

This outfitter is in Zimbabwe

I’d say there is nothing wrong with using those [emoji637][emoji[emoji6[emoji640][emoji638]][emoji640][emoji640]][emoji[emoji6[emoji640][emoji638]][emoji640][emoji6[emoji640][emoji638]]]gr accubonds for mule deer or pronghorn. I shoot Nosler Trophy Grade factory ammo with...

Welcome to AH, I second what @Sabre is saying above. The sweet taste of a cheap price will quickly fade if followed by the bitter taste of a less than stellar experience. I have no personal experience with either outfitter but have heard many good things about Limcroma and no they have some good...

Welcome, hope to hear some good stories!

I think the Nosler eTips may be the closest thing to TTSX in factory ammo you may find currently. I bought some as well but waiting for weather to warm before shooting some to see how they group

Having lived in the mountains of rural SW Montana for the past twenty years we have a half dozen people (mostly archery elk hunters) have run ins and are mauled to some degree by grizzlies every year. I know, I work at the hospital and see them when they come into our ER. In that twenty years we...

To get to East London you will have to fly to Johannesburg first and then take an Airlink commuter flight to East London

Beautiful rifle, congratulations

Welcome, nice to have you here as an outfitter sponsor. Would love to come hunt with you someday

Congrats, hope the trip goes well. I look forward to reading a report when you return. I’ve been looking seriously at doing a hunt for chamois and tahr down there myself. My wife and I were in NZ touring last month, beautiful country. I’m headed to Spain for a roe deer hunt in April and then...

I live in SW MT in the Madison Valley so a little ways away from you but always happy to jump on a phone call and answer any questions if it helps another AH member out. Just PM me

Depending upon where you are in MT, I would be happy to connect over a beer and share my experiences over my recent four trips, took firearms on the last two.

Welcome to AH

Depending upon when he is going to come to IL, look to see if you can take him during the youth season which may give better opportunities for a doe. Other option is to maybe take him squirrel hunting where you could have multiple chances to harvest game to build his excitement right away, plus...

Welcome to AH from another Montanan

Welcome to AH

Thanks for that follow up to our discussion here and my request for info from anyone who went to the meeting, appreciate your detailed write up. At this point, I feel like it is a little let’s wait and see if they walk the talk. I hope they follow thru with what you heard and the rest of us hear...

I also took a really nice Russian boar with them, weighed about three hundred pounds
