    Hunting & Fishing First hog hunt

    Re: First hog hunt rincon10, First of all, congratulations on your first hunt and a very nice boar. I have hunted Paso Robles a lot and you are in pig country up there, great area. If you are in Goleta check the hills above you, plenty of hogs up there and you won't have to make the 100+...

    Hunting & Fishing Name these animals!

    Re: Name these animals! Nuttshooter, The animal up top appears to be a Kob. There are a few different species, Ugandan, Western and White Eared, with perhaps one or two others. Pretty interesting trophy, as they appear primarily through central Africa. As for a $35,000.00 trophy fee, it...

    Re: Zeiss 10X42 Victory HT Binos Snipe10, Te Zeiss you are talking about are built with quality in mind and I believe they would be perfect for what you have outlined. I have the 10x32 and the 10x42 Victory and the first thing that got me was the glass quality. I have used Swarovski, Leica...

    Colt SP901

    Re: Colt SP901 Eng07, I shake my head a lot when it comes to Colt and items either offered, produced or when production runs might occur. I've come to learn that "it's just Colt" and that seems to be the way it is with them, I wish it would change. Maelek, The engineers figured out a way...

    Colt SP901

    Re: Colt SP901 Eng07, Don't own one, yet, but did have one at my disposal for about a week last month. Had it out for an article or two and spent a fair bit of time behind it over that stretch of time. The one I had was a CM901 that was safe-semi-full, and it was an accurate weapon out...

    Hunting & Fishing Caliber and bullet choice for gemsbok

    Re: Caliber and bullet choice for gemsbok Bullet placement and bullet choice is key on these animals. I have been fortunate enough to shoot a few in Namibia and they are hearty animals. That said, a good shoulder shot into the vitals will ensure a swift kill. I have shot them with 30-06...

    Re: Suppressed 16" .308 FN SPR for hunting deer/pigs Darin, I am shooting the 168's from Black Hills, their "Gold" line and I am incredibly impressed by accuracy and what the round does on animals. Between the rifle and the ammo, I get half MOA consistently. Jeff and crew build incredibly...

    Hunting & Fishing Wild Boar Hunting Weapon Choice

    Re: Wild Boar Hunting Weapon Choice Janus, Like some of the others have mentioned, some pigs hang out in some thick areas. Not sure where you hunt them, but I have shot quite a few up off the Central Coast. I have mainly used .308's, both in a "scout" set-up and with some of my work rifles...
