Hello Walterhog, gee where on heavens earth did you get that handle(name)? Ok I would like to purchase a big game caliber like the .458-Lott to hunt Africa with but my wife says I don't need such a rifle. Not since I have a great gun like her father's, the 30-06 Springfield. How can I convince my wife that this is a necessary rifle for Africa hunting and the cost is really nothing to what you and your boss use on your hunts. Do I get a new wife, or just find a girlfriend that will support my hunting wants? Ummmmmmm I need you expertise on this matter asap. | ||

Your wife is right. Sounds like she has a great deal of common sense. "When you play, play hard; when you work, don't play at all." Theodore Roosevelt | |||

You might reaffirm her appreciation of her father's 30-06 Springfield and reassure her that you would never think of taking that irreplaceable heirloom to Africa. . | |||

I'd handle it a different way. Take her father's Springfield and have it re-barreld to 458 Lott. Then point out that, since you saved so much money by not getting a new gun, you have earned the right to take it to Africa for a field test just to be sure the conversion was done properly. After all, wouldn't want Daddy's gun to be damaged by a bad conversion. | |||

Load a round with a caseful of red dot and tying the rifle to a tree hide behind a boulder and pull the trigger with a long string. Rub dirt on yourself and gell your hair back radiating from an imaginary point just above your right ear. Dab some ketchup on your clothes and have your buddy drive you home clinging to some of the larger bits. When your wife answers the door pull the bolt out of your ass and tell her you're buying a modern .458. Job done. | |||
