It's a cold day in hell when I agree with Shootaway. I enjoy CB's writings, he ahs vast experience, and I don't care of personal issues. I made the choice to stop reading his works only when he began selling products he was paid to endorse and the selling (of products and of himself) began to take up too much print. I'd rather he'd go back to his old style and tell us the facts of the hunt, not which is the best bullet, binocular strap, etc. IMHO Safari Rifles was his best work.

I had my first exposure to African hunting in the late seventies or early eighties.It was an article on buff hunting by Boddington in one of the popular gun mags of the time-Peterson's or Gun&Ammo.I found it cool that you could hunt a big, tough buff with large calibers and solids,shoot and follow it up in the tall grass etc... | |||

I like CB, enjoy his show and his works. He was also very nice to me in my two meetings with him, including an AR gathering in Atlanta some years ago. So he is a paid endorser of products and has a safari course DVD, it doesn't mean I take his word as the gospel. I'm smart enough to form my own opinions on products and services. I guess some aren't and that rubs them the wrong way. 30+ years experience tells me that perfection hit at .264. Others are adequate but anything before or after is wishful thinking. | |||

============== Amazing. I wrote those two paragraphs tongue-in-cheek, based loosely on the bromide about walking in another man's shoes before being qualified to criticize him. It certainly applies here. Bill Quimby | |||

Looks like Safari Ed, left as a sponsor over on AH. Too much heat? | |||
