    Caught Yet "Another" Great Deal!

    Well , my Mod 700 Classic '06 is ready at the Smith's. I also received the B14 Hunter 7 RM, will drop it off Saturday when I pick up the '06. I was headed there yesterday with it and to p/u the '06, when I got one of those Pastoral ER Calls. One of my best friends/supporters/Church member had a...

    Caught Yet "Another" Great Deal!

    Blkram...of those Tripods, if you were going to jump out of a truck, set up the tripod to take an elk 250yds out, as quickly as you could so as to get a shot off, would you be OK with the rifle "saddle" tripod or the one that clamps the rifle and has the ball swivel to turn the rifle? I have...

    Caught Yet "Another" Great Deal!

    Caught Yet "Another" Great Deal!

    Well, well, well! I couldn't stand it, I called and swapped my caliber choice for the new Bergara from .270 ( I just can't get away from the Siren Call of that Kimber 84L if I'm going to shoot a 270!) to try another 7mm Rem mag. I used them and other 7mms for decades, but its been years since my...

    Caught Yet "Another" Great Deal!

    Nice rifles there Uncle Blkram! After scoping the Vanguard .270, it felt pretty heavy, kinda "sluggish" in my hands. I felt it was a tad "too" heavy, so sold it. I decided to get another Bergara B14 Hunter .270. I can have a Trigger Tech put in it, they come Pillar Bedded. I still like them...

    Proximal Tendon Tear ; Am I risking further damage?

    Well, before I could cancel my for sale Ad, a Dad wanted it for his young adult son! I sold it! Last minute too, I was just about to take it "back" to my Smith! He makes ( I have used them since the late '90s) a 3 Port 90 deg Baffle type. Its very effective. I like them on varmint/coyote rifle...

    Remington 700 BDL 300 Wby plus ammo/1" mounts

    I'm taking the rifle back over to my smith. He makes/installs I have had on other big boomers, from Varmint Rifles to elephants guns. Its a 90 deg, 3 Port Baffle type. If that isn't enough ( and I'm sticking with the 165-168 TTSX to start) then I'll try a different type.

    Proximal Tendon Tear ; Am I risking further damage?

    I'm just not ready to "accept" too much limitations on this shoulder. I'm going to have a good brake put on this 300 Wby and give it a chance. I have electric ears, so don't care really how loud it will be. Don't care if someone believes " I'm overgunned by "having" to brake it either"! :)

    Remington 700 BDL 300 Wby plus ammo/1" mounts

    Changed my mind, gonna keep it for now. I'm not ready to just "accept" my shoulder limitation. I'm going to try a good muzzlebrake first. I have electric ears, that always helps.

    Proximal Tendon Tear ; Am I risking further damage?

    Yes, I'm still checking around, asking questions. Its been over 23 yrs since I played with the 40 Cals and above. Back then I had a "maybe" opportunity in South Africa to cull a Buffalo and maybe take a lioness. It didn't work out. I played with several , I like them all, but heaviest I...

    300 Wby Braked Recoil?

    I'm getting my new to me Mod 700 BDL (factory chambered) 300 Wby braked and a TT Trigger put in. I went to Walkers Earbuds to use in the Field when using a braked rifle. I know the brake will reduce the felt recoil, but was just wondering what any other braked 300 Wby shooters thought of the...

    Proximal Tendon Tear ; Am I risking further damage?

    I agree Michigan! All I really have is some pain, and a little loss of motion, but so far, so good. No one here seems worried about it, ha.
