Always enjoy seeing your photo's Guy. The Eagles are one of my wifes favorite things. In another month or so it will be prime time to be on the lookout for migrating raptors in our part of the world. She also likes hanging out at the National Eagle Center. Most days at this confluence of the...
Hate to admit it, but the balistics on a 22-Creedmore (Couldnt they name it somthing else so I dont have to cave in to the "Creed"???) might be worth hanging around to shoot. Ron Spomer has been a long time fan of the 22-250 and the Ackley, and he had good things to say about it. Trouble is a...
First time I read this I thought it said, "Im recoil sensitive from using a shaver..." I finally know what happened to me...! 🤣 and yes, I'm developing a flinch from reding this thread..CL
What is that whitish looking grainy stuff you built with??? Looks like it must have come from an organic 3-D printer or somthing? 🤔 🤣 So nice to see some body actually building something to fit a need. Hope it works out. Paint it black unless you want to keep showing off.... CL
Spent two hours talking with a smith this week. We discovered we have mutual acquaintances, through my mother-in-laws family and just got to talking....Ive done my Mn hunting just miles from where he grew up. He says he wants to save my Mauser. If nothing else he will buy my "parts" and get...
Well that sucks.... A guy shouldnt have to get his anticipation up just to get the rug pulled out from under him like that. Been there. Hope the turn around is quick and successful. CL
Glad you are OK. Ive known people in cars to get seruiously injured from animal strikes. Definitely one of those shorts check moments. Years ago my uncle hit a deer with the Mercury Monarch. Dont recall what happend to the car but the deer was in the ditch apparently out cold. My uncle...
Ive been lurking around here a while myself- Dont know why, but made me think of my Grandfather. He was well into his 70's when he took his first ride on a snow mobile. Bounced himself off, (wide open was his way to go- Snowmobile, model T or a horse). He didn't know what would happen if he...
Oh wait, that's what I was thinking of maybe....Not sure theres even a 25-20. :) CL
PS-BTW- Shillen will chamber you a .25 cal barrel in any of the following:
25 Creedmoor
25-06
25-06 (.285")
25-06 Imp. (6.5-06 tight neck)
25-06 Ack. Imp.
25-06 Ack. Imp. (.285")
257 Wby. Mag
257 Wby. Mag...
How bout a 25 Krag ? !! ... a 25WSM or a 25 STW is a pretty legit 257 Wby beater. For all that a 25-20 should be the perfect "walk around" lever gun. CL
