I bought a pre 64 300 win mag that had been rechambered to 300wby for $600 last year at a gun show. The action was worth that to me.

I typical just read them and do not respond.

That is pretty zippy coming from a model 94.

I had a vacation cancelled due to covid and the insurance paid off. I think that was a complete different set of circumstances as it was basically a global issue.

if it regulates perfectly, then all is good as shot placement trumps....most things. So, IMO 150 yds or less simply means you are golden and the rest is just academics.

250-300,.257 Roberts, 7mm-08, this is from the low end to high. all easy to shoot and all capable with good shot placement. No need to reinvent the wheel or enable the needy.

Thanks got mine ordered...left some for everyone else!

I will send you my ex-wife and a gift card!

I am looking at just the cartridges. 7x57,8x57,30-06, 300 H&H and 375 H&H. I know that there are many others these are just my picks

I tried to figure it up for a Buffalo hunt in Zim with the Wife as an observer. I came up with 2.5 times the advertised cost of the hunt. Add business class, taxidermy, shipping, packing, dipping ect and you may be at 3.5 times the advertised cost or more. Not the average man's sport anymore...

I have several 35 calibers, 35 whelens (2 750 remingtons, 1 Ruger 77 tang) 2 358 Win, one smaill ring masuer and the other is a Ruger 77 tang carbine. The Ruger 35 whelen is my favorite.

Yep but more efficient, maybe a little tougher to chamber and headspace, but not for a real gunsmith. Besides I have several intermediate mauser actions that I need to do something with.

Instead of a Z pak, consider doxycycline. Covers alot of things over there and helps with some malarial medications. Can be an issue with sun exposure in some people. Or you could care both antibiotics.

Being the Boomer I am, I would look at a 25/284 or the 6.5/284.
