howdy fellas. I hope this is posted in the correct thread. I recently picked up a Zastava LK M70 at a gunshow & was incredibly impressed with it. Upon further research I realized these guns came left handed. After a week of searching one popped up for sale here in Canada and I quickly purchased it. It's chambered in. 300 WM


My question is on the topic of Barrel Rechambering. I'm not overly sure on what calibre to pick? Ideally I'd like 458 Lott but I'm not sure how easily that will be done...

First, I apologize if this is in the wrong sub forum.
I wonder if you guys could rank the various African game animals for the table ONLY.

The game animals go in various categories:

1. Your absolute favorite animal to eat.
2. The animal(s) just behind #1.
3. The animal(s) just behind #2. Basically good, but not great.

(as well as the '06 requiring more powder to try and match it)
It seems to me...

Some considerations:

1. I have hunted a ton all over the USA and in Europe.

2. My budget door to door is about $12-15,000. Not including the trophy shipment and clearance and...

For a while, my wife and I had been discussing/planning on buying some land to have a little piece of dirt we can call it our own. So, after months of looking in Middle Georgia, and not liking the areas, or the prices, she finally found 26 acres about 35 minutes from our house. We went and looked it with the realtor, and my wife fell in love with the property from the moment she saw it. To top it off two deer jump off the bush and greeted us as we walked in the area.

We did a survey...
