Looking for something to throw on a lever gun, does not need to be anything fancy. Prefer nikon or older leupold scopes

I have some springbok and impala capes that I would like to use on some barstools. I haven't bought the barstools yet, as I wasn't sure if the maker would supply them. If anyone could recommend somebody or has had this done before and can post pictures, im very interested.

Hey guys, I am moving in November and am in the middle of packing right now. I don't have a lot of stuff and will be moving everything via uhaul. However, how do I transport my mounts safely? I am literally only bringing clothes and a dresser in the uhaul since I flew down and purchased all my...

I’ve got a friend in TX who does hog hunts for $300 a person. This price includes rifle rental(with thermal) unlimited ammo and unlimited hogs. I will check if he’s still offering this. And it’s free range obviously

good first week at bear camp

shot with a 338 Lapua during load testing - shot at 300 yards

He crossed through the fence and we got on him pretty quick - shot with .40 s&w

Finishing up my 7mag build and I have 2 decelerators…1” and .5”. Both feel pretty good I believe I’m somewhere in between the two. I know I can sand down the 1” to 3/4. However, with heavy clothing during hunting season the .5 may be more practical. I notice on a downward angle(tree stand) with...

Had to cover where they gutted him

80lb limbs, cables twisted up 5lbs. Running 900gr Easton DG arrows with 2 75gr inserts up front and 1 in the back with a 150gr grizzly broadhead

Came in heavy at 86lbs from the factory, took it to my friend bow shop and had him twist up the cables to get to 90lbs

have hunted bear many times, this one was taken near Quebec. Shot at 50 yards with a 7mm Rem Mag & Barnes TSX BT 160gr.

Ive probably killed over 50 pigs at this point, my biggest being 300lbs with a bow. 7.62x39 my favorite pig caliber Have a .40 on my waist for reassurance, friend of mine had a tusk go through his hamstring following up on a pig. Snake boots for the rattlers;)

Management buck with a ravin

Trijicon optics

Sent the bolt assembly off for coating. You can see what that looks like below

It’s all surface rust there’s no corrosion like bluing

Personally, I like the rear sight of the Mauser but the front sight of the rigby. I like the wood grade of the Mauser but the darkness of the rigby. And I like the rigby butt pad.

It’s probably the plainest wood option because it’s the PH model, which is the only model within a thousand or two dollars of the Mauser. If you want a big game with similar wood grade level of the Mauser you’re looking at well above $20,000 USD.

Agreed, if the Rigby had the ebony for-end it would make it even better

Looking at the new Mauser 98's and Rigby's, it seems to me Mauser is way over priced. When comparing the Mauser 98 Magnum Expert 375 H&H and the Rigby Big Game PH 375 H&H, there is basically a $500 difference(excl. tax and fees). Yes, the Mauser may have a grade 5 walnut stock, but the Rigby's...

how do you like the 450?

I don’t believe our line up would even compare but here goes nothing: most dangerous I guess: Polar bear Brown bear Grizzly bear Mountain lion Alligator/wolf I think most peoples big 5 would be: dalls sheep Yukon Moose Brown bear Elk Mule deer

Through research it is said that the barrel needs to be brand new. However, if you clean the barrel the best you can, you may be able to do it. I believe you can’t have any carbon or gun powder residue. Nitride will surface rust(after a few weeks of exposure) but never chip and cerakote won’t...

I was very disappointed with the cerakote. I had it don’t by a well known coater. However, I can’t put all the blame on him, as I haven’t been entirely gentle. My expectation of cerakote was the result of nitride. I thought it was forced into the the metal as nitride is. I will say you wouldn’t...

I don’t care about money, I wanted it done right the first time and $200 later it wasn’t

Cerakote seems to be the most widely available

Any recommendations for where to send it?

Alright so anyone who knows about cerakote has seen their cerakote vs. series, well I believe its complete BS. I tried Cerakoted for the first time and immediately chipped it off my barrel. Apparently, this is the strongest finish out there. However, bluing seemed to hold up better in the past...

I believe your referencing the M24 in the last paragraph, which would be their most consist and highest quality

I just have a spare 700 action around

Yeah I’ve spoken with him as well….. he’s uh…….. interesting

I’ve been around enough bears:) I have taken them with a m700 I don’t feel as if it was unsafe or unreliable. I will add I have seen someone fairly recent almost lose their life from a grizzly because of a CRF action failure.

I got mine for a steal under $500

Yes, my casings would get stuck in the chamber er and not be able to be released. I replaced the Lug and barrel

I understand, no need for any arguing. I get everyone has their favorite and least favorite brands and people have had great experiences and horrible experiences with every brand.

I have looked at tikka as well, however when I bought my M700 I got it for such a good deal it was hard to pass up.

Ive had a chamber issue on my deer rifle but that's about it really

??

Sorry I’m just referencing the action

Why don’t clients like using the rem 700 for DG? I understand the perspective of push feed rifles. However, the likeliness of a malfunction is very low. An m16 extractor and dual ejectors takes away any extraction issues. I just want to know why more clients don’t use these rifles especially...

It was at 11 lbs with the 5in Mercury tube but since removing it along with the bedding I should be around 9.5 lbs with the bipod

I bought a whole new barrel. But I believe I could have had it reamed out.

As I’ve stated in a previous post, I had purchased this 7mag new and it had a chamber issue. Rather than being the typical A-hole and selling it, I decided to build it! I kept it as a 7mm as it’s my favorite cartridge and just good for everything besides DG. The only thing OEM Is the 700 action...
