Meth is a.Montana made problem, localy. Fentanol on the other hand is a huge cartel problem as is human trafficking on the reservations.

This is a pre ww1 rifle, no holes or marks and in very good condition.

That's what I was thinking, the mount and fitting would be around 2 grand. I could do it myself, but like you mentioned, it wouldn't have the prominence of a really known Smith doing it. I may just end up handing it off to my son.

Isn't that a Texas heart shot?.

My 9x56ms 1905 doesn't have a tang sight, or scope mounts. What I don't know is if putting correct claw mounts on it would reduce its value, I have a few period correct scopes.

Thanks, for now it's bear and elk in thick timber. I need to go down south for hogs, or across the northern border

I hope they get this all worked out, one day I plan to go down their for a hunt.

Horn grip cap and nose piece

Thanks, I hogged off a lot of excess wood, this is my brush gun, now it points like a shotgun.

Here are the rest

Woops, here are the pictures

I have to load them one at.a time I guess

Woops, here are the pictures

Here is my take on a Germanic style stock for a no3, 45-70. I trimmed down a no1 stock and made to through hole in the buttock smaller.

Dang, what a gorgeous rifle, too bad about it being in jail. Have you contacted Heym to see what they recommend for a mount?

Most of the American boot makers are crap, except for logger boots

They look pretty much like a moccasin sole, is their any arch support in them?

I agree, the 9.3 will do everything a 30 cal can do and more, I vote for the 6.5x55 or 25-06 or even a 22-250, for roe and varmints.

In your case, it would probably be easiest to have a engraver make the 5 into a 8

A great hunt, that reminds me of something like a Lynx, but with different color and a long tail. Your trip makes me want to go now.

Looking for 375JDJ dies and headstamped brass

This is a great thread, I have been casting for over 40 years, started as a kid, with muzzleloaders, then hand guns and rifles of various calibers. Have killed a lot of game with cast bullets over the years.

Nice, thanks for the feedback. Have you shot anything with them yet?

I-10 and I haven't put them across a crony yet, but am hoping for 2600fps

I forgot, it's a 30-30

I have some 110 CEB bullets loaded up for a 10in barreled Contender, like you, I'm apprehensive about using them for elk. What is your opinion, since you shot the 100's, would the 110's work on quarter shots on elk, say out to 150yds?

That's a pretty shotgun, I have a few nice ones, but none with cases. Nice find

What are your groups like?

It is the prettiest blank, but straight grain is always the strongest. You don't want burl in the grip on a heavy recoiing gun. Burl in the butt section and forend grip is the way to go. The other option is to put it on a gun with a through the butt tang bolt. Most double and single shot rifles...

I have a few no1s, they can be tuned to shoot very good. Hand loading and or trying different brands to tighten the group will help also. The 9.3x74R in a no1 has escaped me so far.

That is a unique action

I would think MOA or less, what kind of rifle?

I would go with a light stalking rifle, classic and light.

Are these still available?

I have owned several different Mauser actions over the years, 91 through 98 and have never had a issue with any of them. If your worried about a pierced primer and gas coming back through the bolt, just have a couple of holes drilled in the bolt, so the gas goes into the magazine well. Several...

I drove 20 miles outside of fairbanks and shot mine. I didn't use a guide. Counted 9 on the Haul road one day, always saw lots of griz when I lived up their. Very good eating also.

Another thing to consider, is a euro mount and have the cape tanned. It will be their if you later decide to do a mount, or you can sell the cape at a later date. I have done this with Alaskan game and it worked out pretty good.

And the fact that Remington was sued into bankruptcy.

Also, the hunting gun market normally follows what the military uses. What stalled the AR, was mostly the caliber.

Their is a mix, here in Montana, a lot of long range guns, some classics as well as Tupperware guns. It seems to me, that the big boomers and old long range guns aren't wearing out, but have moved into collections. As the new guns come out in stainless etc. Their are some special runs of the...

I just got one of these also, and have yet to really play with it, but like others have said, a lot of turrets need a small Allen wrench to do the zero. Like you, I was afraid of losing the tiny wrench. What I do is fold a strip of duct tape around the Allen wrench shaft, leaving a long tail on...

Damn, that went pretty cheap

Right, but I would still stay within the pressure limits and not modify the guns chamber, or some fool.down the road will blow it up. I think the idea of either brass 410 or the 460 brass is on the right track. Or step up to a bigger/stronger frame

I would be very cautious of doing that, I don't believe the action would take the pressure. You have to remember that after you are done and gone, it will still be around and someone may fire a standard 45-70 in it, not a reduced charge, like you would, also, a 45-70 is for a .458, not a .451...

I bet the 45-70 case can be turned down and resized to fit

I have put back of face several shotguns , double under lug, dolls head etc.. but never seen one with a greener cross bolt that needed it. Not saying they arnt out their, just like their are plenty without one that doesn't need it. As was stated above, newer steel is better, but it's my opinion...

Wow, that looks fantastic, especially for the price.

Not Infantry, carbine
