    Not as nervous as I made him. A 260gr Accubond in the head from my 375 Ruger soothed him though.
    During the rut they are crazy, not sure if he wanted to mate or fight, but I played hard to get...

    I meant Dakar, thanks for correction. We stopped there on the return trip, Joburg-JFK, not on the way over. I have heard they return nonstop now, but am not sure. They ran out of bottled water on the...

    I'll wait for the 41 mag. You could almost buy a Marlin Cowboy for that price if you could find an old real one.

    First try I made with my 375 Ruger, 280 gr GC Lyman with 40 gr Varget shot 1.5-2" at 100 yds. Might be worth a try, came up with this after good luck with Varget in 45-70.
