RogerFrank,
Wow, what a write up in the description. Almost makes it as good a DG gun as the lever 45/70!

Rogerboomstick,
Just a little humor about the add for the 338.
BTW, I love my stainless, gg, in 45/70. Also, I promoted the first 45/70 Buff Raffle, so I'm not knocking the lever hunters.

Try to look unimportant. Your enemy might be low on ammo.

tiggertateThis same outfit listed something so wrong and fraudulent last year that a bunch of us emailed them to try to get a correction. The lady in the picture (I think, same one) emailed us back saying she was a lawyer and we were all toast for libel and slander. That, of course, started a lot of back and forth. It was so hilarious we all posted her email replies on the board. If anyone remembers it and can find in the archives it's really a good laugh.
"Experience" is the only class you take where the exam comes before the lesson.

Do you remember who else here was involved, or some good keywords? I tried a search and didn't find anything.

congomikeOkay, that settles it....I am going to get the barrel on my 416 fluted to reduce recoil and on my new Mauser custom I am going to get one of them "adjustable magazine boxes". If it is adjustable enough, I will be able to shoot any cartridge I want and even use the same box for different rifles!!!
