What did Santa bring you?

[300WSM]

Did Santa Claus bring you anything shooting/hunting related?

After many decades of using a single rock chucker he brought me a Turret press.

 

[Slimfinn]

A 1hp MEAT! grinder was under the tree for me

 

[bkordon]

My wife got me a pair of Danner Mountain Boots. Woohoo!

 

[xphunter]

Pelican case

 

[RL338]

I was good this year
1 Crimson Trace Hardline Pro 6x24-50 scope
1 Bog Deathgrip tripod
3 boxes of Barnes 110gr TTSX .30cal
1 Stainless steel table for cutting deer (from the kids)
1 Lyman Ezee Prime handprimer and Federal GM215M primers (from my brother)

 

[SJB358]

I got some good wool hunting pants from Johnson Mills and a waxed Stormy Kromer cap.

 

[GregoryB.]

I got an offset charcoal smoker to cook up some hind quarters. Maybe even a turkey this spring.

A clean little Baikal MP18 M-M 410 shotgun. I had an older Baikal 12 gauge that weighed 5 lbs and kicked like a mule so I reluctantly sold it. Have been casually looking for a replacement and finally found this one. Really happy to have found it.

Also some older stock 270 160 gr gr Partition's for at least 40% less than brand new.

Another cool find was 120 pieces of some old Canadian made Imperial 270 160 gr KKSP RN bullets. Really looking forward to trying them on spring bear this year.

what in the holy hail are those notches?

 

[Hunter26]

I got a pair of Lacrosse Alpha Burly boots, solar panel for one of my Tactacams, sling for my x-bolt & some 150gr ABLR's in 6.5.

They have 3 notches crimped in so it helps retain the core. KKSP stands for Kling Kor Soft Point.

 

[rjm158]

A pre '81 Browning BLR in 308 from my wife.

Oh, boy, talk about a blast from the past! Memories; sweet memories!

 

[highoctane]

Well, I got the bill that made everyone else happy!

Wish I still had the brochure that showed a line up of all their loads. I would imagine you shot their 175 gr version in your 7mm RM that looks just like that. I believe they made a 150 gr PSP in 7mm too. We used the 303 British 180 gr KKSP factory loads as well.

 

[JD338]

I got the Frankfort Arsenal case prep station.
Looking forward to getting lots of brass cleaned and prepped.

Santa has now informed me he found a box of brass at the bottom of his sleigh. I knew I was really good this year.

You hit it precisely. One hundred seventy-five grain pills out of my 7RM and 180 grain KKSP in the 303 British. They worked well on quite a variety of game.

Awesome, that's what I thought. Super pumped to be trying them out. Wish they were still being made.

 

[Hunter26]

Would love to see one of those put into some jugs.
