As some of you may know I was having a lot of issues with my 7mm mag. I was debating switching rifles and calibers rather than face the issues. Well, last week I pulled the trigger on a new barrel and a bunch of parts. I had a gentleman in South Dakota make me a new 24" barrel and it will be arriving tomorrow! I am having the bolt shipped out to Idaho for a bunch of custom work. Besides the trigger the only two things that were factory are the barrel and bolt. I will be posting before and after pictures and updates in the coming months. If all goes well should be ready to hunt Texas whitetail come November!
 
Should be a nice project
 
Barrel arrived today. 24” 1-9 twist. Shipping the action and bolt out tomorrow for some work.

Hi - the only (best) method of sending you the .375/06IMP data is with photographing my book notes. My camera died so the only way I can do it is with my phone. To do that, I would need your e-mail address, as this
new Android phone is too complicated to upload to my desk computer, which would be easier and to down-grade, reduce the file sizes.
Best wishes
Daryl

Hey Steve, This is Steve Washington we met at KMG last year. I am interested in your Winchester. Would love to speak with you about it. I work third shift and I cannot take a phone with me to work. Let me know a good time to call during one of your mornings. My phone is [redacted]. Live in Florida so I have to account for the time difference.
Look forward to hearing from you.

Good day, Slider.

Do you by any chance have any 500NE brass left that you are willing to part ways with?

Best regards,
Boela Bekker.
