    7mm WSM or 7mm RSAUM

    Re: 7mm WSM or 7mm RSAUM I chose the 7 Saum, and it is simply a fantastic cartridge. Loaded with the 180 VLD my powder charge is 59 grains of 7828. Fearsome accuracy at 1K and beyond.

    Tube Guns?

    Re: Tube Guns? +1 Gary is a great guy and has great stuff. I run a pierce action in his chassis and I will never go back. The adjustability of the stock system simply works. I did not glue my action, because there is no need to. Very simple system to set up as the trigger guard, scope rail...

    Rifle Scopes 10X for 1000 yards

    Re: 10X for 1000 yards Light gathering is not as good with the smaller objective on the 10x if you shoot in inclement conditions at longer ranges. Its all good on a sunny sunday afternoon but in evening overcast you would appreciate something slightly bigger all around.

    Re: Why is FFP more expensive? As of this morning, I am not getting any pm's for that donor S&B. Warning: this story may or may not be true, however that has never stood in the way of many others, and why let the truth stand in the way of a good story.
