    Custom smith needed

    I'm looking for someone that does quality smith work (true and bed a factory action, adjust trigger, and maybe replace barrel) for a reasonable fee. I'm looking for quality work not name recognition. Any suggestions would be most welcome.

    Hunting & Fishing Which of these 2 optics would you use for hunting?

    Re: Which of these 2 optics would you use for hunting? Seems like you can't go wrong with either. I like the price of the Leupold though.

    Hunting & Fishing If only one gun for deer hunting????

    Re: If only one gun for deer hunting???? Probably a .257 Roberts in a Ruger #1. Tough to say though. The .243, 6mm, .25-06, .260, 6.5X55, 7X57 and 7mm-08 are all great picks in my opinion.

    Hunting & Fishing Where would you go? What would you hunt?

    Re: Where would you go? What would you hunt? I'd go to Alaska or Africa but a bird hunter couldn't beat Argentina for Dove. My father-in-law goes every year and RAVES about it.

    Sierra or Berger?

    Re: Sierra or Berger? Great info. Thanks gents. I may give the 105 VLDs a try but Berger recommends a 1:8 twist and I'm running 1:9.125. I'm mostly curious about the 95s. Usually the choice would be easy. I like Sierra so if their BC is better than Berger I can justify it based on cost...
