Ya i am ignorant. Just ignorant enough for you to steal $295 from me and then you lie about it. Yes I doubt your experience as an ethical, moral and honest and truthful 24HCF member. Yes, known liars, thief's and scammers truly abound and are welcome at the 24HCF.

Thanks for showing the fine rifle.


Beware of thieves, scammers and dishonest members on the "Fire" classifieds. Ya there is a thief here too. Whatever!!

They're all around the CampFire and everywhere.

My elk, bear, moose and African Plains Game rifle is chambered in my wildcat "340 Tyrannosaur" (8mm RemMag necked up to .338) for starters. I could go on.....

And I was an early advertiser here with my business, "Aahsome African Adventures" I took many folks from here hunting in Africa (I most often accompanied my clients on their hunts and assisted on those hunts in various ways). I had a banner ad up top here for about 5 years.

Here is a picture of me with one of my clients and a very nice Klipspringer he took:

My Client David Dirkes with his really good cape Buff:

I have many many more, but I think the point is well made. All of this was common knowledge here for a long time, but I guess it has been a while now since I was active iin this. I have a 28 minute DVD called "Hunting in Zimbabwe" that took me several years of safari's to make. It has two Elephant kills, two Cape Buff kills, a Lion Kill and lots of plains game going down on it. I am in it as an interviewer, shooter, voice over or cameraman throughout. Also have an article in African Hunter magazine. If you PM me your address, I will send you copy's of each. My business is noted and mentioned, with photos of some fine animals taken when this was a big part of how I made my living, are featured in the latest Barnes Reloading Manual, as well.

Below, my much hunted, very bloody, often loaned to clients 340 Tyrannosaur. I have posted it and info about this cartridge many, many times here.

Once again, I have had to post about me and my stuff, but only as a response by an ignorant newbie who, for some reason, doubted my experience. Members who have been around this forum a while know all of this stuff about me.

OP, I would REALLY rather this thread you started be about YOUR cartridge and rifle, but when challenged openly, I feel I must reply openly in return.

Can we all get back on track here, please? I am more than willing, but will reply with whatever proof is needed if again challenged about my background or experience by ignorant folks.


While you�re busy changing the subject by self-aggrandizing, don�t forget to mention the safari you set up that got completely screwed over.

I was only defending myself about a low blow from a person who was himself taking the topic off center. I wish it had not happened, but it did - again- and I did not start it.

Why can't everyone just let the thread be about the rifle and cartridge? I complimented the guy on his round, gave it kudo's vs the pipsqueak rounds that I personally do not care for, and then it all came to be about me instead of the rifle and cartridge, and this NOT of my doing. But, I am not going to sit and take pot shots that are wrong about me without a reply of the truth and a correction.

If you felt the need to 'defend yourself', thats what Private Messages are for. You did want to make it about you, nothing less. You have too much fun tooting your own horn.

Two of which are right there with it.....which speaks to your awesome and superior knowledge of these things.......

And while we're on that subject, what does the fact that you were a middle man, booking hunts for people in Africa have to do with any of this? What does "Aahsome" mean?

It means you got a free fanny pack & a picture of Craig Boddington after you booked a hunt through him!!!

I like that one! If the club in Utah doesn't claim it, there should be a new game made up for it!

I hate golf.

Let me guess: 18 golf balls at 100-900 yds and 4 shots per ball.
