    6.5 Roberts Improved?

    Heck, I'd buy it just because I'm a fan of P. O. Ackley. That said, I have enough weird calibers in my collection. .256 Newton, anyone?

    Any gin drinkers here?

    If you hate it you are only out $17 and you can use it as a solvent or something. ;)

    Any gin drinkers here?

    A gin that is heavy on the juniper that is dirt cheap is Sam's Club Member's Mark London Dry Gin. The Gin is In website gives it 4.5 stars and it sells for $16-17 per 1.75 L bottle. It is shockingly good.

    Any gin drinkers here?

    If you like gins from NC, you should try Chemist American Gin. It is from Asheville in a brown bottle similar to that in which chemicals were stored in HS or college chem labs.

    It's true. I do understand it. The only correction I'd make is to the add the late 60s to it.

    Interarms Mark X 7x57 Mauser

    Your suggestion about repairing the stock and then having it cut for rubber recoil pad is something that I have been considering. I probably will repair it first and see how I like it without a recoil pad.

    Interarms Mark X 7x57 Mauser

    Here are more pictures of the Interarms Mark X in 7x57. As you can see, it does not have any iron sights. I have tried to highlight the schnabel fore-end, the barrel sling band, and the safari style cheek piece. The scope bases are Redfield with the traditional dovetail front base and...

    Interarms Mark X 7x57 Mauser

    I'll get some pictures up in a couple of days. The pictures from the auction site are only so-so and don't show detail.

    Interarms Mark X 7x57 Mauser

    I just picked up an Interarms Mark X 7x57 Mauser. I believe it to be a Whitworth as it is marked both Alexandria Virginia and Manchester England. Correct me if I am wrong on this. Instead of the usual Monte Carlo stock, it is has straight stock with a raised check piece and a schnabel fore-end...

    You win! I just bought one with a olive Nato band. Found a coupon that gave me $12 off as a new customer. All in was $85 including NC sales tax.

    What Watch do you wear when you hunt?

    I like field watches. I just picked up this Bulova Railroad Approved for cheap at an estate auction. I will be snitching the band to a NATO band.
