I have a Ruger American in 7.62x39 I consider my utility rifle. It's good enough for whitetails, coyotes and general plinking fun. It's a no nonsense gun. I also have this 1895 Mauser sporter in 7mm Mauser I recently picked up for cheap, that will be a great knock around rifle. It's also...

Congratulations. I'm glad it all worked out. I bet the end result made those early feelings of frustration fade away.

A few more...

He's selling because the length of pull is too short for him.

Very slow. Takes forever to load any subject or thread. Many times it times out and I have to try reloading. Photos take forever to appear.

I might be interested in trading you an unused CZ 550 FS in 30-06. I acquired two of these some years ago and use one as my primary deer rifle, and the other has sat unused in my safe. I live in northern Wisconsin, so maybe we could meet halfway if you are interested?

Check all of your existing compasses and see if any are called "Global" or have a "global needle". If so, then you already have one that is weighted for use in the southern hemisphere. I have a Suunto Global. It's nice and light. You don't even notice you have it on you, until you need it...

I will claim the 10/22 stocks please.

I have a "Mannlicher style" CZ 550 FS as well (from the first decade of the 2000s), and mine has a 3 position safety from the factory. From what I read, only the 550 FS versions had the 3 position safety. Does yours only have two positions??

Indeed! This is with the open sights at 50 yards.

My Mannlicher style CZ 527 has some half decent walnut. Not the best, but not bad for a factory rifle...

My H&R 12ga. For some reason they decided to attach this awesome looking fiddleback maple stock on it at the factory. I wish they would have made and attached a matching fore end too...
