John, With high level work product like that, I think Ed can expect a lot more orders for these. | ||

Jeffery, I wouldn't use the word jog. I carried it at a moderate walk on level areas and a slow walk going up hill. I've got two bad knees from contact sports when I was younger and my running days are well behind me. One other thing I wanted to add is how easy it is to clean. I had very little fouling. Rob, George have you noticed the same thing. I wonder if Pac-Nor did an exceptional good job on the barrels or if it's the bullets. I've been shooting my turned bullets exclusively so I wonder if that's it. Anyway, I fired off 41 shots and it took one stroke of solvent, a few brush strokes, two dry patches and the third was clean. I passed one with a bit of oil and I was done. This is quickly becoming my favorite rifle. Also, I took a couple of shots into a pine stump. It was at least 2.5 feet in diameter and both the 725 gr and the 900 gr bullets went through. The stump was recently cut and still had a good bit of moisture and sap in it. That�s plenty of penetration in my opinion. These elk better look out in a couple of months. Maybe I�ll have to try it out on a bison as well. John | |||

John, My PacNor (.470 Capstick) barrel cleans up very easily, too. They are very good barrels. George | |||

John, I hope you mean it, 'cause plan is to move the fam to MT next spring. ![]() I'll get my lawyer to draw up the form. ... just figured the recoil of that 725g at like 130 ft lb. ![]() I've felt numerous 50-60 ft lb loads, but I really have no notion of what that must be like. Tell you what: I'll come out and pop off a 725g at somewhere around 1900 fps w/o brake, to see what I'm getting into, then we'll see about the other. Even with brake, I'm impressed! | |||
