    Lead Sled Question

    I probably put this in the wrong place but I have two rifles I need to zero and being that they are harder kickers than my .338 Win Mag I was wondering how my weight to put in my lead sled? One is a .416 Remington Magnum and the other is a .375 Ruger. Neither has a muzzle brake. Vince

    entry/mid level binoculars

    I gave the tracker my $500 Zeiss 8 X 30 binoculars when I left Africa. I also gave him a good tip. For my next trip I’ll take some 8 X 42 Zeiss binoculars. Maybe I’ll get the 10 power instead but I’ve noticed a difference between the $200 binoculars and the $500 binoculars. If going with less...

    Where have the gunsmiths gone?

    I usually ask around gun shops after describing what I want done. Local is relative since I’ve moved a lot in the past ten years. Found a couple good local ones that don’t advertise. Unfortunately one got famous and only builds custom rifles now. Unfortunately they are usually older gentlemen...

    entry/mid level binoculars

    I’ll just say that your glass is more important than your rifle. You can’t shoot what you can’t see. Vince

    Can Cougars Push Deer and Elk Out of an Area?

    I’m interested in this topic so I’m posting. I do have some thoughts but I’ll just say, having dabbled in the bovine game, mountain lions are a shoot on sight animal to me but there’s more than one critter on that list. Feral dogs are as bad. Vince

    Lesson Learned and an Experiment

    I followed the link on the post that quoted your post. I’m now set to be paid $58,000,000 from a Nigerian Prince. I just sent him $2500 so he can wire the funds to me. I never expected such riches from this forum although the wealth of knowledge and camaraderie is unmeasurable. Vince

    Bring back logging and cattle grazing and these conflagrations would lessen in intensity. Vince

    What gun should be the Idaho State gun?

    There’s three that say Idaho to me. 1) Winchester Model 70 in .338 Win Mag. This says Idaho Elk and Elmer Keith to me. 2) S&W Model 29, .44 Remington Magnum. Another Elmer Keith memorial. 3) Winchester Model 70 in .270 Winchester. This one pays tribute to the self important legend in his own...

    35 Whelen VS 375 Ruger

    My $0.02 If you’re going to hunt Africa get the 375. You can add an Alaska Arms floor plate to increase the ammo capacity. The Whelen will hold two more rounds and the 375 will get one additional round with the AA floor plate. I also use the Alaska Arms Ruger Scope Rings. In my opinion they...

    375 Ruger

    I’m going with Swift A Frames at this point. Although I think the Nosler Partition would be great for Plains Game. Vince

    Another question for all us hunters: Favourite method?

    If you want to hunt South Africa I know a guy that can accommodate you. Every year he has a client from Ireland that can’t walk come and hunt. If you’re interested give me a PM. Vince
