    What Type of locks for Gun Case and International Travel?

    I use TSA locks, the locks are all for show, there is no benefit to using a heavy lock. I use heavy locks in my real life for a variety of things, but on a piece of luggage isn't one of them.

    Getting mixed answers on bringing ammo into South Africa

    You can bring bullets and/or brass, but I would not even begin to think about bringing loaded ammo with no accompanying rifle.

    270 LRX in 375 Ruger on game up to Buffalo

    If I were starting that load workup at home, I would likely start with RL15 and then quickly move to Varget or 4350 if I wasn't getting something going pretty fast. If your listed powders were my only choices, I would probably just start with Varget and run it up to the upper end and then stop...

    Scope ring height question

    I've thought more about this, normally the difference in height of medium to high rings is .1". So if that is true for the Leupold rings, that would at max mean the a difference of 2.5mm.

    Scope ring height question

    There is no way you need high rings for a 42mm scope. I would add, the trend in the tac world is to move to taller rings, this is especially true for LPVO and red dots. But for your purpose, not really apples to apples.

    I think the Emergency Eco Powers Act requires a joint resolution to terminate the Economic Emergency declaration by the President. That would be require it passing both chambers. But if that were to happen, I would guess the President would use Trade Expansion regs to keep them in place, that...

    7mm PRC Ammo Question

    I have used Copper Creek in the past, all good stuff. If your rifle is setup for it, that 195gr EOL would be a long distance medicine.

    7mm PRC Ammo Question

    I would use the accubond if they shoot well, and as @375 Ruger Fan says, any of the Hornady loadings in the ELD-X or the M should be good. I don't have a 7PRC, but I do have a 300PRC and it shoots factory Hornady ammo just as well as my handholds.

    I think you are going to a pretty organized "grassroots" response in the US in the coming days. We have seen it a bit north of the border in the last few days, but it will happened here very soon. Crown will be a target, as well as others. It is all theater, but it will happen.

    Is there someplace you can direct me to learn what that means, I still have no clue. One kg of milk is 2.2lbs, that is a roughly a 1/4 of a gallon, the average cow producing 20 x that much in a day. So the dairy owner has to pay someone or something 24,000 for every cow they want to add to...

    What is the 24,000 per head number? I have zero dairy experience, but plenty with cattle, I but can't figure out what you are talking about. I would guess 200 head is an average size, so that there is some added cost of 4,800,000, for what?
