That was a good buy

I wish the new 9.3 was 8 pounds. It's less than 7....

Where is the scope located?

Patrol 6 fire dot is in the mail. It's crazy how many low power variable optics are on the market and so few make good hunting scopes. I almost ordered a mark 3 because I liked the roll knov illumination. But ultimately the 6 power and clean fire dot were top priorities on this scope. I...

The leupold Patrol with the fire dot is looking much more appropriate

Thanks and I'm Not a fan of the green reticle .

I am considering a 1-4 Steiner for my 458. Any thoughts on reticle choices ?

This is not my mount. It's off Highveld taxidermy site. I get my stuff back in 6 to 8 months and this is their in house custom form. I really dig the long wall pedistal pose

Spin a bunch up, i think they will sell. Already have a 375 all weather. I think I need a nice wood 375 and this looks to be the ticket.

"Elite Hunting Outfitters"

Its Gonna need a scope. I'm am not accurate in the least with the peep.

450 grain buffalo bore tsx. Box said 2200 My rifle shot it 2160 consistent

It finally arrived. Long story. More importantly it looks better in person. It's a full custom. Trigger worked, bedded stock and barrel Cock on open Changed from cock on bolt close. Heavy barrel. 9 lbs 10 oz I might need to add some weight to the butt stock. I'll update velocity...

Well I was hopping to have an update by now. But it's "in transit" and arriving late according to usps. It left the facility on the 21st and the package has not had another bar code update since, so I'm not sure what's going on. Lost in the dreaded usps system I guess.

I ordered a sample pack from Superior Ammunition, 450 northfork, 450 barnes, 45 A frames I also ordered a box of factory 450 ttsx. Depending on velocity and accuracy the BB 400s maybe something i try.
