    W Buy Barrels - 600 Overkill or 700 AHR

    Corey James should have one on hand, he's out of Louisiana, his place is Bayou Advanced Weapon Systems. He's currently redoing his website, so give him a call or text. I believe MNR might also be a viable options. Also, Ed Hubel is no longer with us. Wonderful man who truly enjoyed what he did.

    Let's see some Big Bore Lever Guns

    I agree, I was absolutely blown away when it was told to me, directly from the maker of the rifle, Mr. Corey James. With that load it beats most of my other rifles I have. Of course, my next question was how much and how long...but that just the levergun lover in me. So once I get my hands on...

    Let's see some Big Bore Lever Guns

    Yes, it was originally done with some concepts Marlin had put together, but required further honing. So now he can build the full action and make certain parts out of titanium to handle the Bushwacker. In which he told me he was also able to make it a takedown. In which the first rifle had 3...

    Wanted Model 70 WSSM Action Or Gun

    Last time I talked to Michael, via email, he noted Brian at SSK is looking to start making the B&M line for him. Hopefully, that has come to fruition by now!

    600 Overkill

    I would contact Corey James or Wayne. They might have some insight on who might be selling one. Good luck to you on your endeavors!

    Tinnitus driving me crazy

    Absolutely, when it gets so bad like that, one will do anything. Depending on where you are interested may be able to assist, but I could find colleagues I trust to assist too!

    Tinnitus driving me crazy

    Help people with it all the time, depends on what your specific issue is. Could he ear related, cranium relations, brain issues, TMD, gut related issues, and everything in-between. You have to find people willing to do the work such as myself. I have seen different homeopathics and supplements...

    600 Overkill

    Sure the design of the cartridge was to milk everything you can out of the 550 and it accomplished said feat. I never mentioned Wayne in this thread, but since you did, Wayne prefers the GMA to the 550 anyways, but the 550 is the more affordable way, atleast back in the early days of OK and they...

    600 Overkill

    I've had my run ins with big bores, but have not been able to touch off a 600 Overkill yet. Most that I've talked too, prefer the GMA action to anything else out there, which I've heard of feeding issues with the CZ-550 action but maybe that is exaggerated. So most of these guys are using that...

    How To: Custom Stocks

    The idea behind mercury reducers is to add weight and to also cause a shift in the direction of momentum to slow the wave; therefore, reducing felt recoil. Now whether that works, or not I'm not sure, but I'm comfortably shooting some heavy hitting rifles with them. Which makes me experience far...

    New Guy from Arkansas

    Welcome! I'm down in South AR, so it's always good to see a fellow Arkansan! @mdwest , you could always go to Hot Springs like we discussed that time. Though, NWA seems to be a thriving place!

    On lever's and pump actions

    So, I was raised around lever actions for most hunting applications. My father would use his Marlin 1894 in 357 magnum to take a number of critters, which caused my love for levers to grow from there. Levers and pumps definitely have their place in the world and in my humble opinion have certain...
