    Got My Dall Sheep And Saved Thousands

    I would put Dall Sheep about number one on my bucket list, but only a few things prevent goint to Alaska to catch that dream. Money and remoteness! I have been fortunate enough to get all the big game species in Montana, including Grizzly and Wolf, but Dall Sheep has been an evasive critter...

    Putting In A New Lawn

    Arizona has 2 seasons, hot and dry and not as hot and still dry. We decided to take our house we've been renting and use it for a recreational getaway once in awhile. It needed some attention in a few places, but the lawn was the worst. It was brown and rabbits were digging around in it so we...

    SOLD Sako Pre-Garcia Bofors Marked 223 Rare

    I have a Sako Pre-Garcia in 223 I will sell. It is probably a better gun than the new ones. For some reason, Sako neglected making many L461 rifles in 223. I can't find any reason, but they are more scarce in any configuration in the earlier guns. This is the best of the Sako rifles, when they...

    Sako Vixen 222 Remington Magnum

    This is a nice older rifle that has some heavy handling marks in the stock, but the blueing and the bore are bright and in excellent condition. This is the early pre-Garcia with Bofors steel. This is the early era when Sako was making the best 461 rifles they ever made. This gun doesn't appear...

    Losing Your Mind

    We were sitting around the fire at elk camp, when my son saw something red under my truck. Upon further investigation, he saw a small crescent wrench hanging on the emergency brake cable. It seems I had left it still hanging on the cable after I had adjusted it 2 months ago! Evidently I pulled...

    I have 59 rounds of new Remington 300 Weatherby brass that was loaded by some custom ammunition company and must have been over loaded. One round fired and the bolt was hard to lift, so that put an end to the ammunition and I pulled all bullets, deprimed them and have the rest of the 59 rounds...
