Welcome Aboard; Great looking rifle, It's not to shabby with factory ammo ; I look forward to see what you can do with it once you start your load development.
An excellent first thread, I can honestly say that I have never owned anything in the 8MM class, but I know a fella who does and they are very capable of taking anything we have here in Canada. Welcome to the forum from your neighbor in Sask.
I use a lot of RP brass; It was my go to for many years: Unfortunately with supply the way it is lately I've had to dig into my reserves and the RP supply I had is dwindling out slowly: And up here in Sask any components of any type are almost extinct, except in the auction where people are...
I once told a gunsmith this exact same BOLDED sentence, and he told me that I should have the thickness of a credit card between the stock and the barrel. I have No Idea if it's true or not but I sanded more out of the barrel channel and it definitely helped on my Win Mod 70. JMHO
I understand that quite well DrMike. I am/was employed by the Feds, but wear a different shoulder patch. I was told get vaxxed OR get axxed. My superior did not like my reply. I chose the latter so I am on LWOP hoping that this Gong Show would come to a peaceful resolution but our PM is a...
The Freedom 2022 Convoy has been called everything from A to Z by the PM, including White Supremacists . But it seems he doesn't take kindly and is afraid when the truckers call him names or run banners with his name on them. He is nothing more than a spoiled brat who; when he can't get his...
Yes it is in great shape according to the gunsmith that I had check it out. I shoot it occasionally in the summer with the old Dominion ammo, but unfortunately i only have 3 or 4 rounds of it left. I have bought a new box of Winchester ammo, but I need to pull the bullets so I have the brass or...
Dam Pathetic when our PM is the Laughing Stock of The World.
When he finally comes out of Hiding the headlines will read;
Justin Trudeau PM of Canada, Hide and Seek Champion 2022
What A useless excuse for a PM: And for our whole parliamentary system for not backing the...
Great shooting; Not a very big target once the fur comes off. Looks like a good size coyote.
I'll have to try some bird calls, that's a great tip; Cuz like every other place once they get wise to the game they hold up or just disappear into the brush and relocate to the next county.
I usually pull out a lever action when I get drawn for antlerless mule deer. I love shooting these guns and they are likely the guns I shoot the most for fun, albeit they are very capable for putting meat in the freezer; Although the 45-70 does cut a quite a swath through a deer with a factory...
I'm in Saskatchewan Canada; I'm northwest of Ophiem MT about 40 miles the way the crow flys.
One thing I can say for certain is that Canada with about the same population as that state of California is not high on the supply list. I'm glad that I always stay well stocked so I can get...
Wow; That was an awesome purchase. Around here where I live the shelves are pretty much bare. There are a few places that have some Hornady bullet stock but that's about it. Powder is almost nonexistant and if or when you find some at a decent price buy fast. The auction is going strong with...
