Classic stalking rifles - today
If you wanted a true classic stalking rifle in a standard calibre like 7x57 of days gone by where would you turn today?
This is my current dilemma and there doesn’t seem to be many modern options.
For those of us that appreciate iron sight and off hand shooting a light, slim stocked rifle with some drop at the heel of the stock makes for a much nicer and more comfortable weapon.
Having the option for QR systems is also great allowing me to bush stalk for shots up to 150m with my irons and...

Planning a Leopard Hunt for Two Hunters – Same Camp / Same Safari
Hi Everyone,
I am beginning to research and plan a future leopard hunt and would appreciate guidance from those who have hunted leopard, particularly anyone who has planned a hunt with two hunters, each pursuing their own leopard.
My first concern is simply whether what I am considering is practical.
Given the cost of a leopard hunt, the limited number of available tags/opportunities, and the fact that success is not guaranteed, I want to plan this carefully before I start...

6.5 Creedmore Magnum using Federal +Peak Technology
I am not a fan of the 6.5CM but nobody can deny the precision that can be had from the little cartridge. Recently, I was reviewing the new Federal +Peak technology applied to the 6.5CM cartridge and was well and truly impressed. This +Peak metallurgy enables the cartridge to run higher pressures from 65,000psi max for a conventional brass case to 80,000psi with the +Peak case. This is a serious boost to the handy little cartridge making it in effect a magnum version capable of about...

MPBR zero on an African hunt
I have a Namibia hunt coming up that I want plan for. I am going to take a flat shooter, my 22 Creedmoor as it has become my favorite light hunting rifle and the only buck we are shooting are springbuck, and many of them, at ranges probably between 100 and 350 yards.
I have never done this maximum point blank range zero thing, but have been reading a lot about it lately and it seems to be the easy method for me, and makes sense.
According to the point blank range calculator, my zero...

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...
