Politics

The USA has labelled both Canada and the EU as threats to their "National Security" in order to justify new duties declared by their military Commander-in-Chief on the international trade of steel and aluminum. So I suggest that USA made products such as firearms and ammunition should be sold exclusively within the USA so Canada and Europe can help our esteemed neighbour defend themselves and improve their national security. Sadly, I have come to the conclusion that Canadians and Europeans...

30-06...again

On the advice of this forum, I changed out the handloads for my wife's -06 from Barnes 180gr TSX @ 2400fps to a 150gr TSX @ 2900fps as the goal was to reach that velocity to produce reliable expansion while making the recoil manageable and she can consistently put shots where needed. Her primary target is a golden wildebeest which is a relative of the blue, and they are considered to be rather tanky.

How many are addicted to Africa and need yearly fix?

I have found I am addicted to Africa and have to have a yearly fix. After this past June trip with Tsala I said I was going to take a year off.
Well, month and a half later I have booked flights for May 2027. @HuntOften36 has his first trip to Africa with my Favorite outfitter in May, Bos en Dal Safaris and I will be tagging along doing a cull hunt. Looking to hunt a couple buff cows and whatever else gets in the way.
I guess I am a full addict. Already thinking of 2028 :)
