All Quotes by Craig

"Checking Zero in Nambia"

"Checking Zero in Victoria state, Australia"

"A good Cape Hartbeast, taken in Nambia.  This is the longest shot I have made with this rifle, about 325 yards"

"Free-range axis deer, Queensland, Australia.  (Donna Grey shot this deer)"

" A nice Himalayan tahr, taken in the Southern-Alps of New Zealand's South Island."

"A wonderful hog deer, taken in Victoria, southern Australia."

"The southern great kudu was taken in Nambia. I used 139-grain Hornaday Interlock, one bullet through the heart."

"Hog deer are often hunted from stands just like whitetail.  This is Boole Poole Island, off the southern coast of Australia."

"Donna Grey used the Ramirez 7 x 57 to take this free range red stag on New Zealand's South Island.  It was just last light, skylined on a ridge at 225 yards.  The 139 grain Hornaday hit perfectly, and the big bodied stag, sprung around and went down."

"Donna Grey used the Ramirez 7 x 57 to take her first whitetail, on Jack Field's ranch in South Texas."

"This wonderful old whitetail came to the rattling horns on the Killam Duval County Ranch in South Texas.  He stood frontally at about 90 yards and the 7 x 57 dropped him in his tracks."

"On the South Texas hunt I used the Ramirez 7 x 57 to take two very fine whitetails.  The 7 x 57 remains one of our best deer cartridges.  Combine it with a rifle that handles as well as the Ramirez 7 x 57 "stalking rifle" and you have a winning combination."

" I brained a really big water buffalo with our 7x57, 175-grain solid. "
