    Movie Theater Bradley Cooper's vow to American Sniper

    Saw the switched scope. They switch back at the very end. I'll definitely go see it. Chris Kyle was a true American hero....

    Hunting & Fishing Barnes TTSX in Africa

    180 grain TTSX in 300 WSM worked wonderfully for me in Africa. Andrew McCourt posted link to my thread on African safari above. Only thing that I had to shoot twice was the giraffe. Otherwise, everything dropped. Bullets exited everything but giraffe and kudu. Great bullet!! I'm looking to...

    Hunting & Fishing African hunting trip

    We went to Namibia last year and had a great time. I shot a 300 WSM on game as large as a giraffe. Everything dropped with a single shot. If you are going after plains game only, I'd take something smaller than 300 H&H. I think a 260 would kill most of the plains game animals with well placed...

    Hunting & Fishing 2018 South Africa hunting trip

    You can hunt in Africa for a reasonable cost, but there are certain negatives. Mainly getting those animals back to the US. I shot 9 animals and my wife shot 2. We spent about $20,000 on the hunt including airfare. It was a lot of money, but was also a lot of fun. Well, so far, I've spent...

    Hunting & Fishing African Safari 2013 - Namibia

    Quick update on my African safari: After months of delays and broken promises by the exporter in Namibia, our animals were finally shipped from Namibia. They were being flown via Delta Airlines to Houston to our importer. Well, the importer in Atlanta high-jacked our animals even though they...

    Night Vision Lets talk about the COTI

    I'm glad someone asked this. I've been debating a COTI as an add-on or getting one of the FLIR scopes and using it along with NVG. Sounds like the COTI is disappointing at ranges beyond a 100 yards... CWJ

    Movie Theater Just got done watching Lone Surviver...

    Personally I loved the movie. I left that movie in tears. About like Saving Private Ryan... I applaud our servicemen and women who put themselves in harms way. This movie stirred up my ire for people calling professional athletes heroes. The true heroes in this world are our troops...

    Movie Theater Your favorite movie speeches/scenes?

    For me the most epic scene in a movie is the last scene in Saving Private Ryan where the guy asks his family if he was a good man. Makes me take a look at my life every time I watch that move... CWJ

    Rifle Scopes Make a reccomendation please! BEST optic for lightweight hunting rifle.

    I like the Premier Light Tactical for my hunting rifles. My 300 WSM rifle wears a S&B because it was my first high-end scope purchase and I had the XR reticle put in it. I don't find the scope too big or the rifle top heavy with that scope. I put a Premier hunter on my wife's 6CM, and I'd...

    Rifle Scopes Anyone Hunting With Premier Light Tactical 3-15x50?

    I hunt with this scope on one rifle and the reticle in all of my hunting rifles. I personally love the reticle. I have the reticle in my S&B 4-16 that I on my 300 WSM. I have a Premier Hunter on my wife's 6 CM. In all honesty, I think the image is brighter on the PH than the S&B. The S&B...

    Hunting & Fishing 375 wsm

    Thanks for all of the posts. A friend has a 375 RUM that he only shot a few times. He said it's too much gun for him and wants to sell it to me. I might just buy that rifle and send it to GAP for a little loving. I can probably put it in a heavier stock and have it barreled to a slightly...

    Movie Theater Man of Steel

    Just returned from watching Man of Steel. They had a 7:00 showing here. It was an awesome movie, but will drive the fan-boys crazy. They changed enough stuff from the comics to send some comic fans over the edge. Personally, the changes didn't bother me too much. The effects were awesome...

    Hunting & Fishing 375 wsm

    Thanks for the replies. I was hoping to get away from building a new rifle that I'll shoot a few times every few years, but sounds like I may end up needing to do that. Oh well, it's just money... LOL I was thinking if elephant became more of a reality, I'd borrow a rifle from someone. The...

    Hunting & Fishing 375 wsm

    So, I had such a great time on my recent trip to Africa that I'm already planning a return trip in a couple years. I want to go after "dangerous game" the next time. Specifically Cape Buffalo and Leopard, but may go for an elephant if the budget allows. I was considering have a 375 Ruger...

    Hunting & Fishing African Safari 2013 - Namibia

    We tried some chicken fried springbok. It was my wife's favorite. I liked kudu and gemsbok better. We enjoyed those meats enough that we are looking for land to high fence and raise gemsbok and springbok to harvest for meat. CWJ
