drewhenrytntThats great Tig', but I don't own a 10.75x68. That is my bonestock Win mod 70 375 H&H, with which Larry and I plan on stealing all the primers with this year!
Speaking of this year, is there a spring shoot in the works?

tiggertateYou know, I thought it was a 375 and posted that first. Then the more I watched, the smaller you made the rifle look until I talked myself into thinking it was 10.75!
You make it look like a tinker toy.

drewhenrytntFind Jeffe's clip of me with the Mastodon 4-Bore, it looks like a toy too. I'll try to have enough ammo to compete with my 600 OK this year!

RustyJD,
Jeffe and I just have too much on our plates for a Spring shoot. We'd love to do it, just a very busy schedule for both of us.
Frank,
Always a pleasure to see you.

I'll be in Houston the 22nd (Sat) through the 27th of October. If it works out to be the weekend of the shoot, I'll be there for sure.

drewhenrytntJD,
There are so many things I miss about Nawlins it would take away all the time in one weekend. My family moved out of Metairie in 1986. I have been back once in 1988 for a cousins wedding. I am afraid I'd spend all my time eating and rearranging memories.
Still sounds like fun. I'll let ya know what my schedule allows.
As I told Rusty in a PM, This just gives me time to work up the perfect load so Larry and I can leave with all the primers

! Needs ta gets my 600 back to Tip, still having feeding issues too.

drewhenrytntThats the one! Thanks Jeffe!
It was not nearly what I was expecting.
What would have been even better was a clip of me with the 700Nitro that followed. It was a left handed stock being shot by a righty(me). That one left more than a mark.
