Duplicates are necessary. Each rifle gets a specific load developed for that particular arm. Eliminates the need to re-zero a scope so you can use the same caliber with a different load for a different species hunt. Just grab the rifle sighted for the load you want for that hunt. Occasionally...

Hey @cash_tx , this is a stock I refinished & carved for my nephew a few years ago using the method I described. He wanted a bit more sheen, but not a gloss finish. If I remember correctly, this has about 15-18 coats. Spent a little over a month on the finish, from the 1st day to the last, with...

Yep, KS is just a short drive away. Even though I buy very little loaded ammo, still need rimfire fodder. I won't pay the tax the idiots in Denver shafted us with.

All of these are typical of the bs encountered trying to deal with guns.com and why I just move on when I come across a listing from them. This outfit might be a legit company, but with the (lack of) customer service they've demonstrated over and over, I'll do business elsewhere.

My old silver guy is starting to have trouble getting up stairs, and I've been looking for something besides Rimadyl for him. These look like they might give him the relief he needs. I'll shoot you a pm. Probably makes more sense to meet up somewhere in the Springs for a beer than to mail it...

When my Dad died, I inherited all his 30-06 stuff, as well as Grandpa's. With what I already had, there are somewhere between 5000-7000 '06 cases here; some loaded, some waiting to be. Anytime I pick up a new caliber, I'll get from 300 to 1500 cases for it, and accumulate bullets to fit...

Another is Slim Pickens. He and one of my uncles rodeoed together in the late 40s, early 50s before Slim's movie career took off full time. Slim used to come out to Colorado to hunt with my uncle, an outfitter here for a few decades, so he could escape Hollywood and relax. He said the movies...

I sent an old gloss VariX II 3-9x40 in early last year after the reticle broke. That scope was roughly 30 years old. Made it very clear on the return form that I really wanted it repaired, not replaced. A few weeks later, original scope showed up with the reticle and seals replaced, lenses...
