    Best Custom In Ear Electronic Hearing Protection

    I don’t have a significant hearing deficit, but I would expect you to be able to correct your hearing loss with this device. When I ordered mine, there was an issue with the order. The owner or manager of the company called me to apologize for the issue and upgraded my order to the top of the...

    I was planning on using the 300 PRC for hunting. Specifically an elk hun in Colorado at end of Oct.

    I have the Harris and Sons units and absolutely would buy them again. The model I ordered was discontinued between ordering and production. They upgraded me to the higher level for free. They are amazingly comfortable.

    My Quest for the Big 5 (kinda…)

    The African economy lives on hunting. You can call it trophy hunting or whatever. I don’t really care. The money I spent in Africa has supported multiple families for years. It is leading to conservation of rhino and lions in South Africa. The elephant was a problem for a village in Zimbabwe and...

    300 PRC

    Anyone have experience with a 210 Cayuga in 300 PRC? I’ve shot the 7mm (151 and 170) in my SAUM and have had great results. Considering 210 in my new 300 PRC. 24” Bartlein CFW LH gain twist 1:9 to 1:8.

    The Barbary stag is the only one that I can remember. Also called the Atlas deer. Don’t believe you can hunt them though.

    It was very easy. Never got 1 question about it. I’d definitely do it again. Especially to South Africa.

    My Quest for the Big 5 (kinda…)

    Once I figured out that it wouldn’t jam if I left at least one round in the magazine, it worked great. Only needed 1 round on the leopard. Shot the lion 3 times, but only because he was so close to us. I wanted to make sure he was dead.

    Yes. We tried it. Tastes great. Very tough meat though. Was soft, but chewy.

    Good luck on your hunt. I can’t wait to go back. Want a free-range Cape and a croc. I’d also like to start my tiny 10 collection.

    The elephant that I harvested was a problem bull. They wanted him gone. The price was VERY reasonable.

    My Quest for the Big 5 (kinda…)

    On all of the dangerous game, the guides wanted me to keep shooting until I was out of ammo. The hippo was laying in water and was a tough shot. When we reviewed video of my shots, I hit the water right by his head with the first shot. Everything else was trying to stop him ASAP. That area is...

    The rhino was a breeding bull. Apparently that is the best way to harvest one and get it back into the US. It was a bunch of legal paperwork to get approval to shoot it. The ranch where we hunted has a huge breeding program. We hunted in a 10,000 acre “pasture” with several bulls. They are...

    I’m seriously considering cutting the barrel to 20” and fluting it to drop some weight. The weight is good when you are shooting it on the bench to zero, but in the field, the recoil isn’t noticeable, so the weight just adds more to carry. I’d also love to find a pad for the forend. Safari...

    My Quest for the Big 5 (kinda…)

    I finished my hunt and am headed back to the US. I’ve decided I’m going to put my hunting stories on this trip together and submit to a magazine. Hopefully I can get them published somewhere. Think my kids would love seeing it in print one day When I’m too old to tell the stories. Or to correct...
