I’ll take the 9.3 x 62. PM sent

I just purchased and mounted a Leupold Vari-X 3iii 2.5-8 that was mfg in 1975 on my Mark X .416 Ruger build. It’s a gloss 1” tube and the glass is very nice. Just sold a VX-6HD 1-6 Firedot because a 30mm tube just don’t suit me like I thought it would. I can’t tell any difference in the...

Thanks, it sold to a fine gentleman from CO. Simple, really. 2 exes & 4 kids = financial irresponsibility. So, #2 succumbed to unmerciful & prolonged begging and said “I Do” for the second time thereby improving my monthly solvency (and hunting budget) by 50%. Our total is now 46...

Of course I would hunt DG with my newly acquired #1 in .450/.400 NE 3”. (That’s exactly what my line was to Mrs when I begged her outta the Botox money she got for Christmas). :sneaky:

Glad to hear you’re still good! +1 on calling Hornady….

+1 on the freezer trick for 24 hours. Saw a vid on YT and the freezer trick worked for that guy.

Another huge shout out to @TOBY458 for this awesome Ruger #1 .450/.400 deal. In spite of my chosen FFL throwing him curves on every pitch he got this runner to home plate in less than a week. Thanks again, sir!
