Bringing trophies back as checked baggage
I'm heading to Eastern Cape in August. Three skulls from 2023 are still at the taxidermist in Port Elizabeth (not entirely their fault). I'm hoping to bring them back as checked baggage if doable. Anybody tried this? It's a gemsbuck, impala, and springbuck. The gemsbuck is a respectable bull, impala is borderline excellent, and springbuck is borderline acceptable. I already have two gemsbuck, four springbuck, and three impala. Probably should not have messed with this batch but the...

Taxidermy back
Happy to say that the animals made it back from SA fairly quickly.
Buffalo, 2x Zebra, Nyala, Blue WB.
1 Zebra will be a rug, the other I want to use for something like a bench seat in the man cave.
The Nyala will be a shoulder mount.
Buffalo....hmmmm. I had the hide for a shoulder mount sent but not at all sure that I want to do that due to size, etc. Thinking something like a shield that may eventually have more than one buff on it.
The BW is another question mark. Leaning more...

375hh 250-270g bullet load
Searched to the forum, could not find what I was looking for.
I am looking to develop a lighter load for my 375HH to reach out a bit further/flatter. Thinking of either a nosler bullet (accubond or partion) or barnes LRX.
Looking for hints on a load, powder etc. Win m70 25inch barrel.
Thank you

This is a new old stock scope, never mounted just sat in the box. The rubber covers broke but other than that it is new.
My father in law got this for my nephew’s 30-30 but they never used it. I setup a 2.5 fixed power for him so this is not needed…I’ve had it in my safe for several years.
Vx-r 1.25-4x24
Illuminated reticle (no battery)
Great little scope, I just won’t use it…
$450
