New member here and I thought I'd share this.

I happen to own Osa Johnson's 9.3x62 rifle.

338 Win Mag for plains game

I have a Model 70 in .338 WM (1:10 twist, 24” barrel) that I plan to take to S Africa next August.
I’ve been shooting Barnes projectiles in most of my firearms for the past several years, so naturally that is what I began looking at for the .338. Swift A Frames will not be an option unless I get lucky enough to catch them in stock or load my own.
Kudu, Wildebeest and Zebra will be the largest animals on my list.

My Story Of My New In-between Rifle & Why It's A .300 Win Mag...

Hi everyone...

I thought I'd just share a pic and a bit of a back story about how I acquired my latest purchase.
It's nothing fancy or exotic.
It's a Weatherby Vanguard and it's chambered in .300 Win Mag.
It's fitted with a Bell & Carlson stock and up top it has some Nikko Stirling one-piece rings and a Nikko Stirling 'Platinum' 3-10x42 scope.
Once again, nothing fancy.
A lot of people don't like Nikko Stirling scopes, but they are fitted with Japanese glass and are nice clear, rugged...

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...
