    Purdy 260

    We have to take 9 Paragons to the range this week. I plan on taking this at the same time. I'll post a report after the fact. I don't think I'm gonna let Brian shoot it. Something tells me Brian "breaking in" any 260 will take all day ;-)

    I can add one of our Gen II Little Bastards in 30 seconds if someone wanted one. I didn't want to force someone to buy it.

    I will machine pink elephants for people if they will stand in line to buy them.

    Purdy 260

    I've never really been a huge fan of the A4 stock but this rifle just feels good when I lay behind it. I thought I'd share a photo as well. Brian even coated the flush cups before he put them in. I think just because it was a 260 and he thinks no other cartridge exists. Either way she's not...

    It would probably work. I've never tried it but I will.

    APA Gen II Fat Bastard & Little Bastard

    It will tighten up by hand but it will need a slight bump with a crescent wrench to keep it locked in please while firing. If it's just hand tight it could possibly come loose at some point. It is 1" but keeping up with a small crescent wrench in your range bag will be a lot easier than most 1"...

    APA Gen II Fat Bastard & Little Bastard

    You thread the brake all the way down and the back it off until indexed. Then run the nut backwards and lock it in place with a wrench. There are no exposed seems etc. and it doesn't require a ton of force to lock it. Just a slight bump past hand tight and you are done.

    Hunting & Fishing Big Red and the Russian

    If anyone wants some details on the hunt just shoot me a PM. So far they haven't found a single bullet. They were mostly in the vitals and ended up in the guts and left in the woods or the taxidermist may find one or two in the armor plate but as of right now they haven't found anything. One...

    Hunting & Fishing Big Red and the Russian

    They had the processors come pick it up in a truck so I never saw it. They were supposed to save all the bullets they found. I was really interested to see how far they penetrated. No doubt they didn't all make it much past his shield and certainly no pass throughs. I'll let you know what...

    Hunting & Fishing Big Red and the Russian

    Yeah I used a 44 S&W 686 Competitor and Corbon 225g DPX. They had to haul him out with a tractor. Trust me that hanging apparatus was under a strain.

    Hunting & Fishing Big Red and the Russian

    I haven't had much time to hunt lately or even poke my head out of the shop much in the past year since my daughter was born but I managed to squeak in a hunt with Josh from Atlantic Marksmen. Josh called and invited me to meet him in TN for a little Bacon round up and that's exactly what we...
