Well thanks for letting me know. Honest to Pete, I was just going to sign off and get on the phone. I have been having so much trouble with my 308 factory barrel I would have used it for elk here in 6 weeks. Well, I have also been saved from putting factory ammo through it. [Roll Eyes] Slim

OK! Looks like one for Fireball Jr. Or is it Fireballs? [Big Grin]
I'm just glad to see someone on here get it. Hope you and your son have a great time with it.

I contemplated and thought about it for the last three days. I whated everyone say PLEASE someone buy it so we don't..I do and now someone else wants it??
And I opened up a paypall account today..wonder if I have to wait now for the billing statement to go through?? something about a password for the account?

this should be kinda nice for both my son and I
I really never felt completly safe with the 444Marlin. It was always on the back of my mind that it could split the barrel......I know everyone says they are safe...Well NOT everyone.
I just feel better with my son having a 45-70 in his hand instead of the 444.

Fireball,
If you are using a credit card, you should be able to use it right away. But if your doing it on your checking account through your bank...you'll have to wait till your bank has been confirmed. Takes a couple of days.

Thank you for buying it. It was making me crazy looking at it! Please post your results with the barrel. I would be interested in your opinion.

I see the barrel is still up on Mike's store. Has anyone sent any cash for it yet?

i used pay pal..that is his Mikes preferred way...but I guess Pay pal is very slow now is it not?...and no use in sending the cash. Barrel was already spoken for. My luck every time seems
Oh well I get him another.

Fireball, Sorry you didn't get the barrel.
I use paypal all the time. I usually get a [Thank you for your payment] in less then 30mins. from the time I send it, from whoever I sent the cash to.

if it would have happed in 30 sec. it would not have mattered..was spoken for already.
I would send the cash now but it belongs to someone else.
Not a problem Now I got to go shopping dont I?

I guess you can give DVH a call and see what he has.
I'll be gettin the 250imp soon and I think i'll be stickin with the 30 calibers and smaller from now on. I have the 358 and 444 and that's about as much abuse as I care to take from my contender.
I think my next will be a 6.5 or 7 something. I also really like the 44mag for just about everything and I may get another in a 14" custom barrel.

Sorry I caused so much saddness [Frown]
Fireball, If I would have known you wanted it for your boy I would not have bought it.(not) [Big Grin]
It will have a good home. I might have to get rid of my guide gun now.
