There's a nice article and pictures of me and some friends hunting hogs in this magazine. I guess i was bored and dug this up. Pretty neat stuff and i even used Sabotloaders favorite bullet to shoot that pig.
300grn XTP[8D]
BTW- The Knight vision was advertised in this magazine. Sheesh.....I didn't think it's been out that long.

PS: I know they changed the law on US Military shipping their cars to Japan. I was lucky and had one shipped in before they changed the rules. If you have to get one when you get there I hope they still have differenet rules for the military folks and not have to go by the locals rules, which were unbelievable and harsh.

What do you plan to do with all your smokepoles??? I lived in the Canto Plain at the foot of Mt Fugi, Yokota AB back in 1975-78. I enjoyed it, but there are no handguns(not sure about rifles or though)allowed in Japan. We did have a trap range on Tachikawa and that helped some. I know you will go through shooting withdrawal. Sorry.

I might try to get on some military flights to other countries and do some hunting. Maybe New Zealand or Australia. If I can, I'll just have my dad ship the rifle to me. If not, I'm sure the outfitter will have loaners.

I had a buddy go to NZ and he didn't take his rifle on his first trip. They have rifles that you can use. NZ is a hunting paradise from what my buddy says.
Are you going to Okinawa or the main island Honshu? What service?
Good luck and good tour!!!
