I believe Steve has a bunch of good pix, they are better quality than I can get from our small camera, John :cool:

Yes, I too am guilty of having a nice bit of ancillary equipment and then having to go shopping for the rifle to suit it:madsmile:
At least when we conduct transactions with fellow collectors the thought of ripoffs doesn't enter the equation.:super:
A small sight adjustment and the old girl is shooting good, the 174 Sierra and 150 Hornady group nicely.
On the way home I got the chance to de-guttify a pesky varmint rabbit with a 174 grain hollow point. It nicely makes two wabbits outta one!!!

It also doesn’t hurt that he lives within a 20 minute drive of my house and was able to see the rifle previous to his buying it at a gun show I attended.Quote:
