    Annealers?

    Timely, I was just going to ask for recommendations. Not interested in spending $1100.00 and was thinking Annealeez might be a great compromise. I know there are past threads on the subject just can’t get my computer to search effectively. Thoughts on the Annealeez system? I”m kinda figuring...

    AR or AR n't

    I have a Colt in 556. That’s it. Use to have a couple of 450 bushmasters up in Alaska but sold them when we sold the lodge. If I were to be foolish enough to go back to guiding up there I would get an AR-10 in 338federal if I could find one.

    Resale value of your rifles- whats been your experience?

    I believe LSB advertised percentage was 25% on the guns. I didn’t pay that much with either transaction. That is a low price for the value. The process took about 6 months for my BIL estate, about 4 months for the 20 some Catherine and I sold. (I do miss some of them) it was about 4 months...

    Its been a while....a friend s rifle.

    Outstanding. Good job DNR, County Officials, Parks etc. There is a very real problem with deer protected areas, inside city limits kind of thing needing some control. Good to see you getting out Troy and getting a hunt in.

    Best group ever with a #1 well almost.

    That is what my PH said. “If he comes his nose will be up, right over the nose between the eyes.” We eased back and up the hill last I saw he was still under the acacia tree, we were on steep ground higher than the bull.

    Best group ever with a #1 well almost.

    We bumped into a couple of real good bulls last May. They got my attention just like the grizzlies did when I was guiding in Alaska. The difference; with a 300 in my hands I figure I've a good chance to stop a grizz. With that same 300 in my hands and a buff with his head up and ears back at 30...

    Resale value of your rifles- whats been your experience?

    Like any commodity you have to understand the game or you will be buying new trucks for the guys who do. With the recent announcement from Ruger, the supply of used #1s went down dramatically. Not dried up but between Gun Broker and Guns International 2/3s of the #1 are no longer available...

    Resale value of your rifles- whats been your experience?

    Until I dealt with my BIL collection a year ago I was the keep em even if you don’t ever use them kind of guy. Some trading but selling one ended up getting two more. After dealing with the Majors I decided to thin things out some. Make a note in your estate planning file. Lock Stock and...
