Yeah, everyone has good ideas here. Pretty much settled on the 308. I have a 1903 & 1917 30-06 project guns I will get around to someday. Always thought the 1917 would go to 35 Whelen and the 03 stay a 30-06. I would like to get more info on receiver sight/scout gun setups now, Most of my guns h...

Ok, I've been wanting another .30 cal in addition to the 30-30 Marlin I have. I'm settling in on 22, 30 and 44 calibers in all my guns. I have handloading gear but haven't used it in about 12 years, but expect to again soon. I want to get a 30 cal bolt gun (looks like 308 is the ticket) to use to st...

I'm looking at buying a lightweight .30 cal bolt action rifle. I live in SoCal and lead free ammo IS a consideration. I am considering .308 and .300 SAUM in a short action Remington. All I know is I used to have a 30-06 and no experience with either caliber. Let me know what you think and why. Thank...

I'm with you on the shootin iron, think twice on longer shots.

My yellow jacket story is from when I was a kid and climbing the walls in the barn.
Got stung under the fingernail. I don't like 'em either.

My all time favorite camp/field gun was the Lew Horton 3 inch 624, 44 Special that I had Fuzzy Farrant make up a set of grips. Fit my hand perfectly! Second choice woulda been the 44 Mountain Gun I had. Regretably I had t sell off my guns some time back and just couldn't keep it. STUPID CA law now s...

Might check with one of our sponsers/members who loads these.

His name is Mike Rintoul and I only needed one of his cartridges to kill a 300lb pig this past spring.

take extra knives and a sharpener or two

Up next is an older holster, Hand made by Viking, Mexico, No. 82. Not sure what it fits, over-all length is 11 1/2, looks to take a 6 to 6 1/2 barrel large frame (my N-frame fits inside, but not a proper fit, likely a SA Holster). Leather in good shape only the snaps will need some polish, thumbstra...

About a half page down on the left is the "download file" button.
I think you are on dial-up IIRC, fyi filesize is 74.4Megs

bsaride

My first thought would be to contact Marlin.

Second thought would be Numrich Arms.

bsaride

Hmmmm, might pull out that 30yo bowlin ball and make some grips.....

Let's see if anyone is awake.

I will post what i believe is a Ruger SA aluminum grip frame.
Black anodized and some scrapping of finish around screw holes.

If I wanted one and it measured up, I would.

Not gonna read every ones posts.

Just gonna say that a short barreled 44 Special has been my preference as a trail/camp
sidearm (as long as you aren't in big bear country) ever since i got my first one.

bsaride

Barebow recurve - the only way to go as far as I'm concerned, when it comes to bows.

All takedowns from the late 50s (25-65 lbs in 5 lb increments) except for the bottom two.
Plus I have my modern takedown with 50 & 65 lb limbs.

Get the ball rollin'

bsaride

Looks like mine. Don't shoot anything but Standard velocity stuff in it even with the HS stamp AFAIC.
They are nice but mine is awaiting a new bolt fitted even with Standard ammo.

Excellent and uplifting as always.

Looks good. Few things to "fix" still... Also, the top screw holding in the White-Line doesn't. It has almost no threads. :? So I have to figure out how to replace that. But the Lyman 57SB sure works better than that... thing... that was on it before. If the white line screw is for the bu...

you can find a few inexpensive hog hunts, sometime for free if you get in good with a rancher right after hogs mess up his stock tank. There are many public lands managed by the PWD where you can get a cheap permit, but many times the animals will be sparse. most places where deer hunts are availab...

Last week I was just in the DFW area, with a side trip to Abiliene, a couple of hours west of Ft' Worth. I love the area. Dallas and Fort Worth are nice when you're outside of them, traffic it is terrible. But not as bad as CA. Grapevine is a nice little town. it is caught up in that whole DFW spra...

A quick job search shows CA and TX as the two top spots with a few here and there (NW, MW, NE, E) and I'm liking the idea of TX. Will have to talk to the family and make sure they are good and will talk to the property manager and see what it would take to break the lease otherwise it will be next s...

Bulldog, looks mighty tempting.

Well, might consider that, what do they do when that white stuff is on the ground in winter?

very moderate weather here, seasons are rain and summer.

I'm sick of California! So, if I had the opportunity for a job in Texas would you good-ole-boys accept me? Which metropolitan (large cities) are better as far as hunting and fishing opportunities, political climate, living expenses and all that? I would be interested in knowing which other states w...

I missed out on that one I haven't been on PM for awhile. As others suggest a 4X would be great for predators. If you want more get a variable like a 4-16X scope and call it good.

PM guys are saying 4-16 that is why I asked about the target scope

bsaride

OK, looks like the Weaver K4-C3 gets a home.

One of these days I will have to get a home for the Lyman.

Thanks all,

When it comes in I will need to mount a scope.

How do you guys like the idea of mounting my vintage Lyman target scope, 15x to it?

Well, I'm excited! Never won anything of value before. I bought 3 tickets on PredatorMasters for $25 to help out some kids. I won a Savage 93R17FV 17 HMR rifle, a Foxpro Firestorm ecaller and a pair of custom mouth calls. Value over $700. Anyhow, I kinda live on this site and wanted to share. Now I ...

bsaride

Good looking pack.

Surprised you don't look anything like your avatar, lol.

bsaride

OK, got it shooting. It was an improperly assembled lifter spring.
Put about 75 rounds thru it trying to center the scope.
Scope ran out of adjustment so now I need to shim and work it some more.
Windage is close so hopefully next time out I can try to save a target.
