California residents...
California has evolved, or is it regressed, to the conditions of New York City. We should just declare it a foreign country, put up a border wall, and let them sink. Sorry to our California members but your only chance is to flee and leave your socialist ideology at the border. California and... -

Deer reactions when hit.
Deer and pigs have different muscles fibers too. I don’t know if it’s the correct term but we called it slow twitch vs fast twitch muscle fibers. Pigs, like snakes, are slow twitch. At least that’s how it was explained to me. I’ve seen pigs kick for a couple of minutes after being hit in the... -

Reloading Help 25-06
My $0.02: If factory ammo is sub MOA shoot factory ammo. First rifle I loaded for was the 25/06 and I learned to hate that rifle. It was very finicky and the only bullet I could get to shoot was the 87 grain Hornady varmint bullet. If I recall it was MOA to 3/4 MOA with a stiff charge of IMR... -

I’m Through
I’m through defending the rights of people that want to destroy this country. The bovine fecal matter at the “No Kings” rally, march, collective of mentally retarded idiots sealed the deal. No, I didn’t attend such stupidity I just had to commute past them. They tried to block my travel. I was... -

Oil prices to come down with OPEC increased production
Up and down somebody is getting fornicated. Whether it’s actual intercourse or mental flagellation somebody is always paying. I stopped worrying about the price of gas/diesel. It’s just a necessity that I have to pay for so I budget for it. Whatever Israel wants to do I’ll support. Vince -

Favourite cartridges based off the H&H Case?
338 Win Mag. It’ll do anything that needs doing in North America and according to a recently deceased friend will handle Cape Buffalo. He was hunting plains game and stopped a Cape Buffalo charge when they ended up in the middle of them and one took exception to their existence. His coolest... -

Down Payment
Talking with a second PH about hunting buffalo. I might spend eight days hunting plains game in the Eastern Cape and then fly to Kimberly to hunt a buff. This will likely be my only trip. Vince -

Got half my hunt paid for with Francois of Umlilo Safari and thinking of going during our winter, their summer. I was originally going in May/June Don’t want to wait. I’ve decided to invest in a good camera and just bring back pictures. Got some news today, unconfirmed but likely, that makes me... -

Flying with Rifle and ammunition
I concur with Don that you take a handgun with you, if legal, so your suitcase gets a “Must Fly” sticker. Vince -

Need a dedicated deer blind rifle - Update
I’d go with the 6.5 Creedmoor. Not because I am a fan of the cartridge but because of the two options you listed I think the 6.5 will perform better if she makes a marginal shot or needs better penetration. You could just give her a 45-70 and let her learn to shoot it. Barring that you might...
