Oh, my wife will GUARANTEE I won't feel lost even if I want to be lost in the garage or the basement. I need to figure a way to get from one to the other without being "discovered" by my wife. Maybe a tunnel? LOL

Yes. @CZDiesel will eventually find a pre 64 WINCHESTER MODEL 70 in .338 WINCHESTER MAGNUM and all will be good Bob. Maybe they made it in .35 WHELEN? I wouldn’t know why they would have, but stranger things have happened. LOL

I’d like a gun bearer. I asked my buddy on an elk hunt once if he would carry my rifle for me and he told me to f*** off. Anyway, a Barrett .50 bolt action weighs 25lbs. so what’s all the whining about carrying around 16-18lb rifles? I wouldn’t but then again my CZ550 .416 RIGBY weighs a meager...

Put your cell phone on the dashboard in a holder and rock out to an AC/DC music video. No distractions there and you’ll fit in with the many other morons I see doing it. LOL

+1 on gas shotguns. Just MY personal preference.

No. Remington 1100.

I’m going to get one of those.

Yeah, that 6L diesel had a LOT of problems. Not one of Ford’s better decisions.

Don't forget considering the .550 Triceratops.

.35 Townsend Nelson?

Or this. No tattoo involved but it is on my 2002 FORD F250 SUPER DUTY 7.3 L DIESEL. Oughta be worth at least $50 off?

Wait a minute. How come a female gets $150? If I get a Buckmark tat on one of my ass cheeks could I get the $150? LOL

Backpack.

+1.

I had a beige ‘65 Ford F250 Camper Special for awhile with a 352 4 speed. Great trucks.

Hopefully they’ll special order the Medallions in .338WM. Browning stopped their standard chamberings in .338 and .375 a couple/three years ago per one of their reps I spoke with awhile back.

Great! Please run some cartridges through it quickly to check the functionality and reliability of ejection. I’m just curious as my .338 A Bolt is flawless but the .375 is obviously a longer cartridge so I’m just wondering? Please let us know. Thanks!

@CZDiesel is a great guy. I went to the range with him once and was fortunate enough to be able to shoot a couple of his FINE rifles and saw his FANTASTIC collection of rifles. Work has gotten in the way of a repeat and much of anything else fun but that will change soon when I finally retire. I...

Would the OAL 3.429 fit into the long action Hawkeye platform? And, can the .532 bolt face be opened up to the .588 of the Lapua case? Thanks!

You're right. My mistake. The B&Ms are designed to be used in a Winchester M70 .300WSM action but use the RUM cases.

I like my mid ‘90s blued/walnut A Bolt 2 .338WM at 6.8lbs/8.5lbs scoped with very manageable recoil (no brake) due to the stock design. I bought a .270Win X Bolt six months ago and it shoots great with factory Nosler 140gr Ballistic Tips.

No.

I’ve been contemplating one of the .375 Medallions like you purchased.

Maybe then a .243AI (Australian Improved)? LOL

Until fairly recently (Nov 2024) Vista Outdoors owned Alliant, Federal, CCI, Speer, Remington ammo. They disinvested those product lines and sold off to a private equity Czech (CSG) company. Concerns were raised but the sale was approved anyway. Supposedly, CSG will continue to manufacture ammo...

GCC. Get a Creedmoor Coming. Kinda like GMC. Get a Mechanic Coming. LOL

Wow! I want to know your secret on airfares as they seem VERY low? FULL airfare, no flight miles or comps used? June 2022, I paid $2500 cattle class booking 6 months out on Qatar through DEN/DFW/DOH/JNB. Everyone else in the group paid around $1800 when first available. It was $8K for me if I...

If you just want a wildcat cartridge, why not? We have the .458 and .50 B&Ms from .300WSM brass. The .416 Taylor is necked down .458WM cases, .376 Steyr from 9.3x64 cases, .375 Dakota from .404 Jeffrey cases but are no longer wildcats. The list goes on. Do it!

They reinforced the base and web of the Rigby case to handle the Lapua pressures.

Blizzard!

My 9" barreled Ruger Casull is enough recoil for me. I would use Buffalo Bore .45 Colt +P hardcasts in the 2.5".

Very interesting. I learned from reading Sundle’s tech articles on his website that a true hard cast lead bullet is much “slicker” than a copper or brass bullet and thus a heavy hard cast bullet can achieve a higher velocity than a copper/brass bullet of the same weight with a similar powder...

+1. Do it Brent! LOL

Just got a ping from Midway. Quality Cartridge brass $50.75/20 box NOW.

I believe the .280 Remington was renamed the 7mm Express for awhile to increase sales but it didn’t work. Remington went back to the .280 designation.

Very nice!

Yes, Remington really screwed up with the 1:12 twist in their .244. If they had gone with a 1:10 twist, we may never have heard of the .243 Winchester. As an addendum to my earlier post, I hunted elk with a guy once that used a Remington 700 in the 6mm Remington cartridge. He told me he had...

I've had a 2.5x10x44 Simmons Aetec scope on my Browning A Bolt .338WM since '95. List price was $250 but I bought it new for $150. It's been through all manner of weather, bumped and scratched. I've loaned that rifle and scope out to my buddy on his two trips to Newfoundland and I took it to...

6mm REMINGTON! My father in law has a 6mmAI he hunts pronghorn with.

And a tub of Vegemite in every larder! LOL

Now you should dump the .243 and buy a proper Creedmoor. LOL

Townsend @Bob Nelson 35Whelen prefers tomahawks over Bowie knives. Just saying. LOL

This?

"no blood was ever drawn". You should've practiced more. LOL

21. Don't sport a Man Bun 22. Don't hunt with a Creedmoor

Maybe six months ago, I was looking for factory 225gr. .338 WINCHESTER MAGNUM ammo. Swift had 250gr. (they don't load 225gr. anymore) A Frames for $130/box. Really? Shortly after, Midway had factory 225gr. Barnes TTSX for $65/box, then on sale later for $55/box. I bought four boxes. I too am not...

I recently purchased a rifle from @Papa72. He mailed the scope separately and both the rifle and scope were well packaged and were shipped in a very timely manner. Great transaction and would buy from him again. Thank you @Papa72!

.338 WINCHESTER MAGNUM!

+1 on the .300 WINCHESTER MAGNUM with 180gr. Barnes TTSX. On my one PG Safari, I took twelve animals with it from kudu, gemsbok, wildebeest on down. I actually thought it was a bit of overkill, but better that than wounded animals.

+1 on the 225gr. Barnes TTSX out of my .338 WINCHESTER MAGNUM.
