LEFT HAND Remington 700

Offered for sale and your consideration is my LEFT hand Remington 700 30-06 “do all” rifle. Bought new in the 1990’s ( maybe 1980’s), never shot it and stored in safe. In 1995 I purchased a take off Kelvar stock from a Wilderness rifle from Precision Gun Works (Osk Kosh, Wis), installed it and removed the front and rear sights. I broke it in and shot it a little. It went back in the safe and now it’s time to move it on as I have three other “do all” 30-06. Barrel is 22 inches, trigger...

American hunter killed yesterday while hunting Gabon.

Word is spreading that an American hunter died yesterday while hunting in Gabon. His name hasn’t been made public yet so I’ll just refer to him as Ernie for now. We were talking a few months ago and I asked where his next African hunt was and he told me he was heading to Gabon this spring for dwarf Forest buffalo and duikers. I was at his farm on Tuesday for a monthly BBQ and had an invitation for him to join the Mzuri Safari Club, which I was sponsoring him to join. He wasn’t...

If you were going to purchase one nice rifle for $15,000 or less what would it be? Mine would probably be a Chapius 450/400NE double rifle.

Blaser trouble, expended cartridge cases sticking in the chamber

I am having problems with my R8 sticking with both the 6.5 CM and 8x57 barrels. My gunsmith friend gave me some weird lube he is selling and it gunk-ed up my action and barrel.

What is a good (available in Europe) solvent that will strip the gunk, but will leave the Blaser DLC carbon alone?

Came buffalo cow hunt wanted

Please send me a message in "Conversations". Thank you, Brian

I like to hunt 6-8 old cape buffalo cows on a 10-12 days hunt. I have hunted buffalo this way numerous times.
I am an experienced hunter, who is a good shot with my .500 caliber rifle, shooting premium Cutting Edge Bullets at 2,159 fps. I usually get a one shot "Dead Right There" kill. I am happy to shoot some of the cows from a hide or similar method. I am looking for 2026 or 2027. October or March is my favourite. Brian
