    Is $1700 fair for a Remington 798 375h&h

    For some reason pawn shops in north texas will not negotiate, I’ve walked at quite a few. That isn’t a $600 scope and I may call and ask if they’ll take 1000 no scope

    Is $1700 fair for a Remington 798 375h&h

    It seemed a little high considering you can get a new model 70 at around 1500

    Is $1700 fair for a Remington 798 375h&h

    Found a 798 at a local pawn shop asking almost $1700 and thought I’d ask the professionals if this is a fair price. It has a laminated stock and comes with a nikon monarch but I won’t use that scope anyways

    Barstools

    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.

    How much difference does 1/2 LOP make?

    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...

    New Mauser vs New Rigby

    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.

    New Mauser vs New Rigby

    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

    New Mauser vs New Rigby

    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...

    cerekote vs.....

    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...

    cerekote vs.....

    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...

    cerekote vs.....

    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...

    Why no to the rem 700?

    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.

    Why no to the rem 700?

    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...
