Also pretty fast. Think slow and poking a neat hole, not rapid expansion you'd want for killing power. 223 might be better than the your other choice but even with FMJ or solids, the bullets may tumble and rip hides apart. I tried a 30-06 with round nose solids and it was too much. My...

You really did great! Amazing what some fresh paint will do;)

Wow great job! I think @Just Gina would even hire you ;)

Thanks Jake! I got one ordered this morning:) @Just Gina is going to love it... she may even leave me shoot it now and then ;)

You can hunt Aoudad in the East Cape in South Africa;) Not as big as the ones raised on ranches in Texas but for me at least the experience was huge! Free range herd with Black Wildebeest running about and vaal rheebok in the hills. Big property with a fence that had collapsed so very free...

I had a similar experience with a phone company years ago. Had to keep asking who the next level was... by time I got to the lady who resolved my problem, she knew who I was, was expecting my call and had a plan to resolve the issue!

I can't find one for sale to compare so I'm going to go with $6500. Which incidently is how much Rigby quoted us just to mimic the engraving and inletting albeit much smaller.

Although I agree it can be hard to pin on anyone... taking the attitude that oh well that's what insurance is for just epitomizes what is wrong about this and many things in our society. Are you an Attorney? I sincerely hope and pray that this whole DOGE thing takes root permanently and puts...

Sure and it makes sense they should or even need the authority to inspect anything. However they could do so with a little caution and respect. Especially for things people obviously spent considerable time and treasure on. Don't you think there would be damage to the crate if it happened in...

I have some beautiful hand carved wood bases for my replica elephant tusks. They were wrapped very carefully in Zimbabwe. Some government A Hole took a box cutter or knife and slashed the plastic off. And of course made very nice gashes in previously perfect finish on the wood. Why do they...

I've got a very nice Winchester M70 Big 5 in 416 Rem Mag. I believe i have the original box and letter from the Custom Shop.

Wow she's beautiful. We will keep, Mrs. Para and Kali in our Prayers. Hope your heart heals soon and you can find a new companion not to replace but to fill in.

But not most M77 Mark II rifles. And I'm not aware of Winchester nor Mauser ever building a push feed with the large claw extractor. I've actually never seen a Ruger M77 Mark II Express in 30-06 built this way before. And I own a few. The 270 versions yes. I've owned a few of those and they...

For that money you have a fun gun to play with and see how you like a double. I'm sure you can come up with an economical way to extend LOP if you want. I do agree with others that before I'd invest more money into it, I'd upgrade to a better brand. But nothing wrong with this as an intro to a...

Great snag Tim;) Congratulations!
