I have a mod 70 stainless classic that im debating having chopped down to 18 or 20 inches. Just to make it a little more handy for my kodiak/raspberry island brown bear tag I drew for next year.
Any thoughts or experience with cutting one of these down?

Also debating taking my custom marlin in 50 alaskan

Would anyone be willing to share their photos of any cape buffalo mounts that fall under the scrum cap or old warrior category? The recent thread about buffalo under 40" got me interested in seeing how some of those unique-character mounts would look on the wall.

There is an abundance of after-the-shot photos but I don't think I've ever seen a mount of one on the wall.

Daga boy is approaching me at high speed.
I raise the carbine and shoot.
One bullet after another.
This is a situation I have thought about many times. I wonder if it is better that in say 416 rigby the first bullet is solid and the second soft? In which order do you who have had such situations put the bullets in the barrel? Thank you
