Future One-Rifle PG-DG Setup

This is about my future hunting rifle. As many of you know, and for those who don't, my current lineup is:

470 NE double, 9.3x62, 338 Win Mag, 30-06,270 Win --- All scoped

Looking ahead, say 10 years down the road, I "may" not have quite the same vision or strength to comfortably hunt dangerous game with my double rifle. So I'm thinking ahead and considering a one rifle solution for both PG and DG.

My preference would be a bolt-action, scoped, but with iron sights as well.Now, I'm...

Ruger M77 African 35 Wheelen or Winchester M70 375H&H?

I am torn between getting a Ruger M77 African in 35 Wheelen or a Winchester model 70 Safari Express in 375 H&H. Thought I would see what my fellow members would get.

I have a bench top buffer that I’d like to use, but the spindle on my buffer is 1/2” and the hole in my Grobet carding wheel is 1/4”. I’d prefer to not do the...

From my personal collection- 2 Von Gruff knives

I placed a large order with Garry for other upgraded knives and no longer need these. Shipping will be delayed as I am currently waiting for NEW RH sheaths for these to come with the new knives I ordered. If you happen to be a lefty and want the current sheath, if will ship immediately. Both are lightly used, and while there are some marks and a bit of patina in spots on the blades from honest use, they are in excellent condition. Both will come with all the paperwork provided by Garry when...
