Over 500 miles one way, over $200.00 for Diesel. I'll wait!

I have a set of Leupold blued steel !'" scope rings that came off the rifle I ruined. They fit a commercial Mauser action and are detachable rings with a lever on the bases.. Leupold still makes them and they have different bases for other actions available. Pictures of them are on my Thread...

It's on the way from Tucson, Az to my local FFL.

Not sure very many states do OTC Antelope anymore except a few units in Wyoming. Need to check the websites as things change every year. Thye ones that are leftover in Wyoming usually are in units that are largely private land.

In the last several months I have noticed a big drop off of posts. I would expect to see an increase of successful tag holders and future hunters asking lots of questions and asking for advice. Is it just me or have other members noticed the same thing?

Pretty warm here too. I just got back from my morning walk of a couple of miles. I do it early when it's still cool and always take my Lab with me.

After a couple of weeks that were pretty dry, the monsoons are back The last 2 night lots of thunder, lightening and rain. Our irrigation water allotment was increased last week for the second time this season. Hope this continues for another month or so.

I bought my son a Model 600 in .243 when ne was 12. He still has it over 40 years later and it still shoots lights out. It is a tack driver for sure.

I just bought the #1B. It is NIB and unfired. Comes with rings and has real nice wood with a beavertail fore end.

WOW!

I found a pretty good deal on a #1 in .300 Wby. for $1,100. Pictures are being text to me and fif it is as good as I think it is, I'll be buying it.

I have found a couple, but the rechamber is an option. I am not in any hurry except if I find one that I really like. My 30-06 will do me fine for elk this year.

This and Facebook. The only reason for Facebook is there are several groups of people I worked with and went to school with that I am a member of so we can keep in touch.

Thanks Jim, I appreciate your information.

Those of you that have read my other thread about destroying my custom .300 Wby, know I probably will be looking for another one. I have always wanted a Ruger No 1, it seems like a good time to get one.....in .300 Wby. Looking for one.....................

The brass I use for hunting loads is all once fired. After mentally going thru the steps I took loading and pulling a couple of bullets and looking and weighing the powder, I am pretty sure I know what happened. I was out to the range working on new loads 2 weeks ago and had narrowed it down to...

All I reload for the .300 is Weatherby brass. When I lived in California, I had a friend who worked for Roy Weatherby and he got me the brass, it was all primed, unfired. I actually went to school with Ed & Diane Weatherby. I am pretty sure I know what happened and I'll post a little later.

Yes it was.

Just disassembled the rifle. Got the bolt out and the barrel is actually loose, I can unscrew it 2 or 3 turns. The case (minus the head) is still in the chamber. I am wondering if I had a total case separation. With case separation, it doesn't take too much pressure to screw thing up. I can see...
