I guess there is really no chance the 195 will work at my elevation of 2250 ft. Wish it had a faster twist. Oh well the 180 should fly good and hopefully stomp...

    Rem 700 firing pin

    I want to replace old factory rem 700 firing pin. Looked at Midway they have 2 PTG models - classic and speedlock. Both descriptions read alike. What's the difference? Are these good? Thanks

Verified drops and went on a test hunt taking 8 hogs and 1 coyote from 75 yds to 960 yds. Worked great. I have been reluctant...

So far looks pretty good but i did get some...
