@Slimfinn , how did the skull look after getting it out of the compost pile ? was it all dirt stained ? what did you do to it before painting it ? Thanks

I never did much fall season turkey hunting . PA , did allow using a rifle in the fall season , but a few years ago switched to shotgun only . I think the switch to shotgun only was to help protect the population some . there's supposedly units in PA that have low turkey numbers . my...

why add a hyper link to my quote ? smells like spam .

My Dad had one centerfire rifle . a Remington 760 , 30.06 . he used the Rem, core lokt 180 Grain round nose bullets . for an all arounder , the 30.06 would be hard to beat .

thank you for keeping us up to date on this . thoughts and prayers for the whole family .

I've seen some dipped in the camo dip . I thought they looked pretty good too .

Thank you for the update . best wishes for things to get better quickly for you and Susan . Keep your faith , and a positive outlook . God is good .

what brand are these primers ? these could be a good thing to have once the primer pockets loosen up a little . with other primers fitting properly , the culprit is the primers .

I've read about the stocks breaking at the wrist . I've also read about the zero being off when switching to offhand shooting

here is the info I have on gas checks .

I "THINK" the slow twist rate was a known thing with the 6mm REM . this is what gave the 243 WIN an advantage . I'd do a little more shooting to get more familiar with the rifle , before I wrote off the 100 grain ammo though . but 5" group is excessive , when you shot 1 1/2 " with the...
