It's nice to hear of younger people with good values. I am young myself and don't get along well with most people my age because I find them usually self centered and ignorant. I mostly like to be around the older and wiser crowd, like you folks here, not that any of of you are old of course. 😁😉
Hmmm, that is a good question. I'm clueless whether old primers could cause reliability issues, hopefully someone else here has some input. My only thought is that in another topic someone mentioned you could re-prime primers using some priming compound, then you would know they should be good...
Every gun I've ever shot is more than adequate for any scenario I would have to use it in. I usually want any general purpose medium/big game rifle to shoot 1 MOA, mostly just because I know there are plenty off the shelf guns that can, so if one is not, then I can probably get something that...

Out of curiosity, would you folks consider intentional gut shots ethical? I understand this is predator control, but my instinct is definitely to kill anything as quickly as possible regardless of the activity. Don't misunderstand, I am not trying to judge this land owners methods, I am just...
I like that you used Duracote instead of classic blueing. Newer finishes like that and Cerekote tend to look better than traditional blue in my opinion, and they have much better durability. Boyds makes excellent stocks, and I think it came together as a very nice rifle.
