The classic “Defender” reincarnated

Complaints like this are what killed the purpose built 4x4s we once had and gave us the poor selection we have today.
No reason a $90K modern truck can't be good on and off road. My old 200 Series Landcruiser, Mitsu Pajero and current Tacoma TRD Pro are/were all great on and off road.
 
Cars and trucks have gotten ridiculously expensive…

Did Landrover stop their anti hunting policy yet ? There was a huge uproar about it some years ago. Some posts in here also

It will always be a compromise one way or another. If you want the best either way the other will suffer. For most people they would rather it drive nice on the highway. Every little change over 50 years has turned dedicated off road 4x4s into highway rigs that are also 4x4.

Morning Rob, Any feeling for how the 300 H&H shoots? How's the barrel condition?

Hello. I see you hunted with Sampie recently. If you don't mind me asking, where did you hunt with him? Zim or SA? And was it with a bow? What did you hunt?

I am possibly going to book with him soon.
Currently doing a load development on a .404 Jeffrey... it's always surprising to load .423 caliber bullets into a .404 caliber rifle. But we love it when we get 400 Gr North Fork SS bullets to 2300 FPS, those should hammer down on buffalo. Next up are the Cutting Edge solids and then Raptors... load 200 rounds of ammo for the customer and on to the next gun!
