Then in October of '09 we all went hunting and George brought his 7wsm and I was admiring it the whole time....so that is the story with the rifle, which I'm sure you dont care about....

Laffin!!....I'm up to six GAP's now. Another 4 or 5 should do it!! That is a really great round..
 
Re: My GAP Crusader 7wzm

You are gonna love the ballistics of that rifle with the 162's or 180's. Very nice rifle.
 
Re: My GAP Crusader 7wzm

How do you like the 1.8-10? Been thinking about putting one on a 30/06 hunting rig I am getting built. I have a 3-17 USO but it is probably too big for a carry rig/hunting rifle.
 
Re: My GAP Crusader 7wzm

Sweet rifle. I'm really thinking about building one in that caliber as well. The ballistics are just impressive.

Is that an identical copy sitting over in the corner of the picture?
 
Re: My GAP Crusader 7wzm

I hate you! Just kidding! I've been pinching pennys trying to get enough saved up to get a similar stick built. Enjoy!!
 
Re: My GAP Crusader 7wzm

That's an excellent rifle for ASC. George and Moon were shooting 7WSMs and that was the kit to have!

I have not hunted with it, but it seems pretty tough to see the rettcle below 3x

Yes, he had to get one too!
 
Re: My GAP Crusader 7wzm

If you can see it decent at 4x it is fine for my purposes....how do you like it at distance?

If not, it should be!
