When I had my 404 built I requested 1 standing 3 folding. I have a 400 yard leaf...I've shot steel with it and it is a blast. It's like lobbing artillery out at that distance.

Sam, That last paragraph of yours is unfortunately true. The challenge has become the goal over all else. You see the idea of completing the sheep slam, big 5, tiny ten and cottontail cache (ok I made up the rabbit one) more about being able to say "I've completed this list" instead of having...

Generally off the belt. My thought on it is there is a fair amount of metal you're relying on your fingers to hold on to during the recoil cycle. I don't want to end up with valuable ammo on the ground in a dangerous situation. Another thing we do is shoot side by side sometimes as well, not...

The Cabela's in Fort Worth is notorious for getting the make, model and caliber wrong on high end guns. Looks like it was in your favor.

Plenty of boom, Hunter, Ph's Trackers, cameramen alive and uninjured. Everyone should walk away happy that they get to walk away. All I know, sitting in my comfy chair is, that was damn fast and nobody got hurt.

There isn't much for deer hunting operations around Alvin. Your best bet is to be willing to drive a little ways. Also, I'm sorry you have to go to Alvin. But while you're there a meal at Juanita's would be a good idea.

I think a lot of people who haven't experienced a charge from dangerous came (me included), in this case cape buffalo are forgetting the power of intent. Intent plays a major role in violence of action. If we are waiting for them to be within 10 yards to shoot, they can cross that distance in...

I've only ever experienced feral hogs popping their teeth at me. I can't imagine the sounds a bear makes doing it.

Can you set up a ground blind or do you need the full 360 visibility? If you're worried about affecting the free float just run a piece of tape lengthwise on the barrel section over the forend if you can.

Here in Texas.

Ullman Precision sells kits, I'm about to start practicing with my 20 lpi kit.

I started the inletting process but now before I go any deeper I'm taking the barrel back off and getting everything to an even 320 grit.

Alright Finally getting back in to this and realized how long it's been. I have a few photo updates. I'm doing this all by hand in my apartment other than cutting the blank in to stock shape at my dad's shop and the quarter rib, barrel band and sight made/prepped by Matt Roberts. I've done the...

I've spent more money there than I'd like to admit. Always quality people and interactions and very helpful if you need it.
