USA: Guided Boar Hunt - Hawaii

Thanks for the extra bit of information.

I enjoy/appreciate the pole spear part of your story as much or more as the hog hunt!

Spearfishing has gotten more difficult as I age vs. hunting with a rifle. Downtime's are shorter. Depth is much shallower. All the time is spent going down and coming up instead of spending time on the bottom hunting. Plus with the extra lard I am carrying, I tend to be more like a bobber than a diver.

Thanks for the trip down memory lane.(y)

No worries.
Likewise I am aging faster than I'd like to admit (64 all of a sudden) and gain weight every time I merely say the word "food", don't necessarily even have to eat it.
Someone said we spend the first 3/4 of our lives looking ahead and the last 1/4 of it looking back.
For that, I have been truly fortunate, not in money but, in good family, good friends and good times.
 
Great stuff sir
 
But when one rents the rifle from some other person, one is stuck with whatever said other person's ideas of what a proper rifle is, including the sighting equipment.

Even more importantly to me though, your renting a rifle gives me a perfect opportunity to tease you over something that I know isn't true. :)

Long live your 4x scopes!

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!
To much to political shit, to little Africa :-)
Spending a few years hunting out west then back to Africa!

Hello. If you haven't already sold this rifle then I will purchase. Please advise. Thank you.

I doubt you are interested in any trades but I was getting ready to list a Sauer 404 3 barrel set in the 10-12 price range if your interested. It has the 404J, 30-06 and 6.5 Creedmoor barrel. Only the 30-06 had been shot and it has 7 rounds through it as I was working on breaking the barrel in. It also has both the synthetic thumbhole stock and somewhere between grade 3-5 non thumbhole stock
