Thanks guys. I ended up ordering a Boyd's Prairie Hunter laminated stock in nutmeg. It's a great looking stock and the action and barrel dropped right in but I plan to get some Accra Glass, release agent, tape, some play-do and then glass bed it. Lowe's has last year's model Dremel on sale for...
I have always been pretty handy; I might give it a shot but it would be the first thing I have done to work on a rifle other than clean it.
I need to see more detail on the pillar bedding. I have some questions still on how to do that properly. The glass bedding doesn't look that difficult...
Guys, I am both time and money poor right now because my business is really hurting. I am working 70 hours a week just to pay bills and pinching pennies hard. For those who can afford a guide or outfitter, great.
My flight into Denver is free because I am going to see clients. Driving from NC...
Re: Free Wyoming Hunt
That's really generous. My buddy and I are veteran bird hunters planning on coming out to hunt antelope for the first time in unit 73 NW of Casper(assuming we get drawn - last year we would have had an 84% chance). Have you ever hunted that unit for antelope?
Thanks guys. I left a message at a local gunsmithing school to see what it would cost to have one of their best students glass and pillar bed a replacement stock, probably from Boyd's. Because its a sporter barrel I will probably have them free float the barrel starting from a couple inches...
Thanks for your help guys. I will rent the SUV with the best ground clearance and good tread and see about some chains. I always take a cell phone and a charger. And you're right, I plan on doing a lot of walking with a lot of water so the vehicle is just to get me back into the middle of the...
Don't drink and the other guy is flying in from wherever his company sends him during the week. My 57 year old butt will not take driving more than 10 hours a day and that makes 3 days out, 3 days back = 6 long days staring at four lanes of blacktop. No thanks.
I am planning on hunting unit 73 in WY for my first antelope the first week of October. I fly into Denver from North Carolina 'cause its just too far to drive there and back and still have a week to hold out for a nice buck.
I would be afraid to drive on WY area 73's dirt back roads with a...
I have a Savage 110 30-06 with a factory synthetic stock that broke in two when I dropped it after losing my balance. I was climibing over a rock on which I was going to sit on the first morning of a CO trip for mulies! I was a liiiiitle bit unhappy with myself! Fortunately, I was able to borrow...
