So it Turns out the the Laminate stock on the 416 Ruger Guide Gun is NOT pillar bedded (ruger customer service said it was prior to my purchase) I am a function over fashion kinda guy. So I ordered a Hogue "B" barrel Stock in Ghillie Green. the Fittment is dead nuts out of the box, much better than the Laminate (which was tight on the barrel and had gaps at the tang). Will see how if effects recoil. also adding any weight will be a breeze ( if it needs it)

Awaiting the report!!
 
My .375 Ruger Alaskan came with a hogue stock and I love it, most of my hunting is in the humid south and formerly in coastal Mozambique. Works great for me. I think you’ll like it.
 
My experience with the Hogue stocks has been great. They flex a little when you fire and this absorbs some of the recoil. The "stickiness" of the overmold helps you grip and also attentuates recoil. At one point I had a laminate stocked .375 Ruger and the recoil ws noticeably stiffer than the exact same load fired from the Hogue stocked .375 Ruger. Welcome to the club! Like the green vs. the black as well.

Sir, I will gladly take that 16 gauge off your hands. I was waiting for your Winchesters but I'm a sucker for a 16 ga.

I bought a great deal of the brass he had for sale, plus I already had many hundred rounds.

How much brass are you looking for?

Hi Green Chile, I just recently bought a 470 NE barrel for my Thompson Center TCR 83-87 single shot. Im just looking for some 470 NE to shoot at the range just to try it out. I dont need anything special but I just wanted to see what you have left. I dont necessarily even need a full box.
Thanks
Bill
