The gun stores in Alaska were the ones that told me they didnt sell reloading stuff because they thought people under 35 were too lazy to reload .I tried to get a ton of kids to reload none wanted any part of it .I have bought a tons of reloading stuff from estates because the kids wanted no...

I used my 416 rem mags in Alaska for 12 years really liked their power and not too much kick .The worse stock on my 416s is the win model 70 that cheekpiece sucks to shoot it unless your just right .The other three have no cheekpiece and are kevalar and hs fiberglass straight stocks lighter and...

The ruger mistake of throwing the Ruger 77 under the bus for the Ruger Americsn which I cant stand screwed up Ruger .They tried to improve it but I still dont like it .I bought some newer mini 14s my favotite semiauto fun rifle .Ruger is not what it use to me the Ruger 77 was the pre64 of our...

I Beretta does a good job when they take over Ruger .I hope the Ruger 77 comes back in full production not just limited runs .Ruger lost me when they tried to replace the ruger 77 with the cheaper ruger american which I never liked .I hope they bring back the Ruger 1 also .I hate to see Ruger...

Hope you find the right load for that rifle its awesome .

It will bust that redfield quick look for a long eye relief 3x9 well made .The older jap made nikons and leopold vari x III work perfrct in 3x9 .You csn make 300 yards with a good bullet with the 416s .I also find holes to shoot through brush to have a clear path to shoot .

I started squirrel hunting with my dad at age 3 .He held the gun I pulled the trigger .I could hold it by myself at 4 and was hunting by myself at 5 with a 22 .I got my first shotgun a sxs 20 ga at 8 shot doves quail and rabbits with it .I got a deer with it at 11 .I got my first big rifle to...

Dang those are pretty stocks

They use laser sharpen cold steel knives .I could clean a couple of moose before they got dull thats saying something .It use to be $5 to get them sharprned again by them need to ask if they still do it .Wild hogs and bears are the hardest things i have clsaned from slick grease from fat .

Delta has gone to crap and Alaska airlines a while back .They lost my dogs on both Delta and Alaska airlines .They will tear your luggage to pieces too saw lots of danaged bags .Its like gorillas who hate to work there .Delta is based out of atlanta which is the worse airport in the country .

Cold steel master hunter made in japan and on ebay the Elmer Keith knives made in Japan .I used those master hunters on moose caribou and bears in Alaska worked awesome.

Awesome classic rifle looks like new
