    Gunsmithing Question for C. Dixon...

    Hey Chad, Sent you a PM asking you but, you clicked the 'Remove yourself from the topic button' so I wasn't sure what that meant. Do you do work with Browning Abolt actions? Someone on the Hide said to ask you. If not, anyone you would recommend? Thanks.

    Hunting & Fishing RIP Dasiy Dog

    Re: RIP Dasiy Dog RIP. Had dogs growing up but, lost our first with my family about 6 years ago (black lab). Like you, the hardest part was telling the kids that she had passed. Damn, I had no idea I'd be so attached to that dog! Took 3 years before I'd think about getting another one...

    help me pick a stock!!!

    Re: help me pick a stock!!! I love the KRG Whiskey 3 but, for stock that will be used more for hunting and general use. Like mentioned above, you may want to wait for the Manners EH1. At under 28oz. it can be a real benefit to lose some weight in the rig. If you can't wait for that-...

    Gunsmithing Why not Browning?

    Re: Why not Browning? Well, I did send him (Chad Dixon) a PM to ask if he worked on ABolt actions and he replied by clicking the "removing himself from thread" button?????? WTF? Guess he doesn't do it or doesn't want to do it---either way, why not just tell me?

    Movie Theater Loopers (murder of 10 year olds)

    Re: Loopers (murder of 10 year olds) Wow, I'm surprised by some of these comments. I support the second amendment as fervently as anyone but, to make this movie into anything but entertainment (good or bad) is a bit of a stretch. The movie is fiction. A movie is no different than a book...

    Need Advice - Ladder Vs. OCW, First Attempt

    Re: Need Advice - Ladder Vs. OCW, First Attempt DIdn't have a chance to read the above post completely, so forgive me if I'm redundant... with the .338, I would do 1 grain to find max pressure and general ladder. Then run a second test with .5 grain increments later to fine tune. Good Luck!

    7mm holy grail

    Re: 7mm holy grail I'd be looking at a LA too with the 7-300 WM or something similar. When Berger eventually gets those .284, 190 grainers out ---- WOW! I'd like a little larger case than the WSM to be able to push them over 3000 fps.
