Thank you for reading! It's a little lengthy but I enjoyed writing it and going through all the amazing hunts again!

Thank you! We took that trying to recreate one that Steve took with his Waterbuck last year. But of course mine was better 😂.

Here is the 2nd post for The Holtmeyer's 2022 African Safaris. The next day, we all woke up with full bellies from dinner the night before. On our morning hunt, I went out stalking with both Tino and Barend a couple of times. We went out for Wildebeest and Blesbok. No luck on the first 4...

Here goes the Holtmeyer story. Written up by 14-year-old Grace Holtmeyer, daughter of Brian and Steph. If there are typos, blame Steve. Just because you can. Here it goes. As you know from Steve's post, we left Montana early Saturday morning, and were greeted by Gilbert in Johannesburg Sunday...

Looking for 200 pieces of Norma 300 Win Mag brass if anyone can spare some. Brian

I would have to totally agree. I have shot several radial brakes and they are very effective but don't even come close to the Painkillers. Brian

The reamer is SAAMI spec. The freebore will enable us to set long bullets out as far as we want. May be a single shot for the 128's but should be able to mag feed any of our others. Brian

I personally talked to Tom at least 3 times and didn't seem to make a difference. I got my stocks and they are great stocks but I can't say they are that much better than some others we've used recently. If you are stuck on Manners, find one readily available and you are good to go...

Good luck to both of you. I have ordered 3 at the same time from them, (probably 2 years ago) and was told 10-12 weeks. Two came in about 6 months and the 3rd was 9 months after many calls bugging them. My personal opinion, there are as good or better stocks out there that are readily...

I really like the looks of that barrel. Brian

I would second the Ruger American. I can't wait to find some available in the 6mm creedmoor. We have several Rugers for testing our bullets and can't ask for anything better for out of the box accuracy. Brian

We have the 27 Nosler built on a trued 700 Action. This exact thing happened to us. Was working up using RE26 watching bolt lift, primer, and velocity. When we hit pressure, saw hole in primer and bolt would not cock after. Had to take the Jewell to smith to have the sear reset. We were...

I would also recommend the 1:7 twist. It gives the option to always shoot the heavies. Brian

We have not. Only used there Rebel and Deviant.
