Just wanted to say hello. My girlfriend just bought me a Howa 1500 as a present. I have been wanting a bolt gun for a while, and she evidently caught on. Anyhow, I look forward to becoming an active member of this site.

Re: Hello

Haha, trust me, I already am figuring that out. BTW, this forum may have already become the friendliest forum i have joined. Then again i come from a world of ZERO respect vehicle based forums (VW, and Jeeps). So thanks again for welcoming me.
 
Re: Hello

Maybe its my approach by now, haha. I guess i should have made my first post "which is better .308 .338lm or .50bmg" Then i may have felt the wrath.
I am really excited about my rifle though. Spent about 4 hours out today, brought my pistol, and my .22 (i figured I'd blow through the 40rds of .308 i brought real quick) but all I shot or wanted to was my "big" rifle.

Yep, one day you are shooting a savage 110 with nikon glass and the next day you are shooting a GAP 338 with S&B glass and find the Sinclairs catalog is about worn through.
 
Re: Hello

Joining the local gun club, and building a surplus of brass to load is on the short list. My Good friend is getting going with reloading so i am pretty excited for that aspect. Spending less, on nicer ammo is definitely win win.
