Model 70 classic stainless 270 WSM ~2004. Had problems with accuracy and rings/mounts coming loose. I Decided to rebuild the gun since i have always wanted to do a build. Finished product now wears the original action, bolt, bottom metal and trigger. The stock was replaced with an hs precision...
I have a crf winchester model 70 classic. I was looking to rebarrel it with a carbon barrel but have been looking for more of a drop in style fiberglass stock. The model 70 stocks are hard to come by. I was also looking to see builds with a sporter vs varmint stock and carbon barrels...
I have recently acquired and put together a model 7 in 243. It has a 1-9.125 twist. I have always been a bonded, tougher designed bullet kind of guy. I was wondering if anyone has any thoughts as to bullet choice here. I shoot accubonds in my 257 wby and have shot trophy bonded tips and...
I have the chance to buy a lot of weatherby factory ammo. 8 boxes of 4 bullet types. I mainly am interested in the accubonds. Would it be worthwhile to buy the lot and switch bullets. Or are the powder charges, etc likely to be different? Thanks for the info and opinions.
I love hunting from my summit climbers. I feel super safe in them. Kind of like you are nestled in. I definitely prefer to sit in my climber over anything else. But i also enjoy the ease and convenience of a ladder stand. I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on a make/model with a...
I have a pro hunter fx that i am in need of the rear sight screws. I have tried midway and midwest guns with no luck. I have also tried searching for what the size and thread is with no luck. If anyone has any info on where i could find a couple or the right size that would be awesome.
I completely understand and agree with the reasons why people have leaned towards composite stocks in recent years. But I just seem to have a love for the wood stocked firearms of previous decades. I personally own a 700 classic (albeit not fancy wood) but wood nonetheless. My latest purchase...
Has anyone had issues with mounting the front base on the x bolt rifles? I was mounting a scope for a buddy and noticed the barrel extended into the front base mounting hole. The leupy bases had screws that would bottom out on the barrel before actually tightening the base down. Exchanged...
Not looking for anyones honey hole. We have 3rd rifle season elk tags with the option of a deer tag instead. We will be hunting private land. Just looking for some input on what to expect as far as terrain and quality of animals. I am actually more interested in a muley than an elk. From my...
I have recently purchased a couple of subalpine pieces from sitka for an upcoming early season elk hunt in colorado. I would prefer to stick with the same camo although I primarily hunt deer in missouri and illinois. I was wondering about thoughts on the elevated II vs the subalpine and what...
Applied for a non res private land muzzleloader elk hunt in colorado. The outfitter acts like it will be a sure draw. I am completely unfamiliar with colorado as I have only been to montana. We will be close to slater. I see the bear pop is on a steady incline. I have the option of 3 dif...
We opted to go for a new sxs over the current honda foreman we had. The foreman was a tad small for the wife and I and the 2 boys. We have put a few accessories on it. I was going to share one that i found to be an absolute must that none of my friends had seen. It is a siezmik bed extender...
Hi, my name is Lindell. I have been to montana a couple of times with a big game combo tag. My limited knowledge mainly resides in central to nw montana. Im 32 and my father is a ‘62 model. I was fortunate enough to fill both tags on my combo both years. My father and brother have been...
