No it's not a 35 Whelen 🥴 So it's a 30/06 but I am good with that! Just for reference sake I remember the last of the 760's just before the 7600's sold for $179 in late 70's. My have times changed!!!!

Lol, that's a great way to put it! I now think they must have felt something was wrong with the gun!!!! Ah well, sucks to be them 😅

I recently ordered a 7600 pump that looked very nice in photos, well it arrived yesterday and I was dumbfounded when I began to inspect it. Not one scratch on the slide rails, clip follower showed never having a cartridge loaded into it! A quick peak up the bore revealed factory cosmolean still...

Hey, Life is tooooo short to hunt with a ugly gun. Congrats on most likely the best shooting "outta the box" production rifle made . Good Luck Earle

Gosh Guy just seams like a few years ago you were riding your bike some incredible distance ( was it 50 miles??) What a wake call, up how fast everything can change! Take care of yourself olde boy ( you and I are same age) and nothing but very best Guy. Speedy recovery..... E

Here is the results of the Nosler 90 gr Varmagetton out of 6.5 Swede at exactly 300 yds. Smokin great combo at 3000fps. Real dark one, heavy prime fur male. 44 lber.

Well I have the same gun, Rem 700 and I am shooting the 150 ABLR's as well with 61 grs of RL 26 : Ditto! Vel here is 3100fps so pretty much identical set up. Mine struggle's to group 1.5" .......... But it drops Moose like crazy. E

Ordered a few bags of 6.5 bullets from you back on the 10th, and ordered a bunch from another firm at same time, their order showed up yesterday. Their freight was about HALF price of SPS. Just checked the status of my order. ORDER # 2000076806 It's still showing ' label created ' and has not...

Saying you might be able to reload the brass 10x isn't truly relivent as the actual cost to buy it at about $1 a piece means that first loading for box of shells is $1 not the .10 cents you might be able to amortize it into at some time in the feature? So using a Buck a piece for brass to load...

This bubble is about to go down like the Chinese balloon 🎈! When I was looking for a 45/70 to play with last fall, I remember all the old tryed and true 1895 Marlins "pre COVID" that were at all the gun shows here in Maine were fetching $5/700 . Now anything with a JM stamp on it is north of a...

Back about 30 years ago an old Winchester collector told me. " If I was your age I would buy rare Marlins, there are little competition at gun shows, and even though they cost the same as Winchester's when both new at turn of century, they are now about half price! He claimed it was because of...

For anyone interested, the price for a real Lyman tang sight to fit either a Winchester 1886 or Marlin 1895, has gone out into the ozone! Prices start at $500 and quickly escalate to over $1000 for minty ones. These so called 'long stem' rare sights, were out of reach to the layman until Lyman...

Hi Greg ! Sorry I missed this reply! Thanks for answering my posting. I had lots of responses and though I had recently purchased some 200 gr Hornady's from Graf's , I wound up with a bunch more from trades! I was particular seeking Speers 220gr for my old 35 Remington. I was able to secure a...

Guy, If I had that butt stock I would make a lamp base with it , top it with a game scene shade and it would be spectacular! You can lower shade to cover crack completely.

Roger, If you haven't tryed this; as you watch the fire burn down, then I highly recommend that you do over cracked ice! OMG good .

Guy, That is a first class act! Checkering pattern looks like one on the JOC commemorative??? Handsome rifle. Congrats on your new purchase! E

-21F below here in Northern Maine yesterday morning, no wind. -13F this morning no wind. However forecast is for -30F Friday nite with winds up to 30 kts. Sounds like wind chills 50/60 below Saturday.🥶 Fortunately we have lots of Rock Maple/ Beach ready for old wood stove!

Something that hasn't been mentioned yet but was first bad mistakes he made was shooting at it when it was barely out of the hole, it could have easily wound up back in there wounded...😣 That could have been huge problem either way ,dead or alive. The sad truth is like lots of folks, he was so...

Since I have never owned a .348, I probably shouldn't comment on it: However I do have a bunch of guide friends, that have luged then for decades. Got to listen to lots of .348 story's from them. I have watched my clients shoot Moose and Bear with them for years. I could see no difference in how...

Good God Scotty, I knew you were going to prance that rifle out sooner or later 🙉. That is behond just handsome, it's about in same league as a fine English gun. Classy firearm that now is owned by a pretty classy fella! All the best buddy, very impressive. E
