I have a Sako l61 actioned custom for sale. It has an MPI fiberglass stock and a stainless steel barrel. Right now can’t remember if it’s 22” or 24”. If you’re interested send me your phone number or email and I can send pics. Also have a fair amount of factory ammo and reloading supplies...

I am a hog hunting guide and have a couple thousand hours with my eye looking through a thermal scope. Basically you’re looking at a small tv screen. Other than having a constricted pupil when you look away not one ill effect. This sounds like something specific to that brand of scope, although...

Our thoughts and prayers are with you!

Cutting Edge, and don’t look back.

It all depends on the bullet and how much velocity can you get. I load for a friend’s 450 NE double. He has a shoulder injury and can’t take full recoil. For his softs I load 295gr. Cutting edge safari raptors, and for solids I use 325gr. Safari solids at 2150 fps. To date he has killed 4 Cape...

Alliance sells every pound of powder they can absolutely get into the United States. Which is about a fifth of what they used to be able to considering that they can only put powder on one cargo container per cargo ship.

Instead of wondering about which specific action to use, I suggest about 10,000 rapid cycles of the bolt and pulling of the trigger. Can be a combination of dry fire and live fire, but I would start with the 10,000 number and work up from there.

I apologize First, as I did not read the entire thread, so I am not sure if this recommendation has already been made. Please do not look past Cutting Edge bullets as an option. In my mind for dangerous game they are the most superior bullet on the market, bar none. I have been loading this...

I believe McMillan has that stock style in their lineup.

Sorry, no extractor. There was not one in the box of parts I received. Apparently it never made it to me.

Let me recheck. I thought it was a 601 extractor, but the post says 600. It will be this evening.

No, sorry, I do not.
