    SOLD/EXPIRED McMillan stock Model 70 post '64 S/A 2 piece bottom metal

    This stock has never been shot or hunted. As new condition. I believe it's the Supergrade pattern in a green and black 50/50 mix. Barrel channel is 1" at end of forearm. All my Win 70's are one piece bottom metal guns now. First "I'll take it" gets it. 350$ shipped to you. USA only

    Leupold Reticle Recommendations

    I used the B&C for many years with a 200yd zero. Shot animals to 500yds - never missed. Has a bold crosshairs for low light and quick close shots. Use the Impact on all my long range and varmint rigs - no dialing and 29 moa will take you out to a 1k easy. Don’t like the CDS dials with no lock or...

    "Bucketing" or mixing powder from different lots. What say yee?

    Need reloading help

    I think I saw you mention Accubonds as the bullet. If so, measure distance to lands and start your loads 50 thousands off. I shoot nothing but Nosler and have for twenty+ years. All their bonded bullets like a running start. I’ve alway had great luck with Nosler’s accuracy loads. Last year I did...

    Gentleman; I'd like to introduce Alice - She's naked

    I’m also running it 3.6” instead 3.34” which increases case capacity. I should be able to get 2800-2900fps out of the the 265/270gr bullets..

    Gentleman; I'd like to introduce Alice - She's naked

    Just picked this up from my gunsmith! 338x28Nosler, the chamber and magazine are set up to shoot an OAL of 3.6".
