Fixing a bent scope tube (damaged by the airline)
For a PG safari in the RSA, I flew over on British Airways with my Win 70 Classic .30-06, for its second hunt there.
A Black-backed Jackal nicely presented itself about 300yds down a trail. I settled into a sitting position, looped up, and held on him in the 300yd circle of my 3-10x Shepherd scope. A squeezed off a confident round, which flew waaay over his head, striking the dusty trail far behind him. Whaaat?? He fled from the bullet strike behind him, and ran toward...

Where is the best steak (and why)
I might have once voted for McGuire's Irish Pub in Destin, Florida--a great dry aged steak, though they do apply a proprietary rub.
After tonight I might vote for The Keg, a Canadian based enterprise, and we ate at the Arlington, Tx location. Difference? Their New York strip was so good, I couldn't even bring myself to salt or pepper it, and used a béarnaise sauce to dip bread in, rather than dip steak in it. Just Wow. Near as I can tell, the grade of meat and the well seasoned grill did...

Arriving at a point in life
All of us are at different points in life with different priorities. Earlier on I wanted many different DRs so I bought 8 from Westley richards to Rigby etc. and enjoyed and learned from them all. At this stage of my life I know several things about myself:
1. I only need two calibers to take any animal on this earth, a 275 and a 404.
2. I prefer a Rigby Brand.
3. I now put my money in future hunts after spending decades also putting money in different calibers and brands.
I believe all of...

Do you prefer a short blade or long fixed blade knife?
I am amazed some times how many custom hunting knives are made up with 3 3/4" or shorter blades. Have folks experienced something that causes the trend?
What would you have made up in the untimate fixed blade: 4" and longer, or 3 3/4 and shorter?

Precious Metals Thread
I thought I'd create this thread because I'm a rank amateur in physical metals. I'd love to hear what others are doing and to learn from others experiences.
I've been divesting my GLD and SLV investments and buying physical metals proportionately, reinvesting my IRA and 401k in equities lately.
I've noticed there are deals out there to buy brilliant uncirculated Krugerrands for spot price, occasionally smaller denomination guilders etc for Spot. Today, there was a deal on brilliant...
