DuaneBSpecial Order Questions
I am interested in participating in one of the group buys. How do I find the info and what is the process for participating? I've searched the Accurate site, but have not found the info. Guess I'm "search deficient"

Second question...When you order your rifle, do you specifiy the heaviest bullet for reguoating the rifle or the lightest? For example, I plan on ordering a 7X65R to go along with my UGEX 9.3X74R. Most likely I will use the 160 Nosler Partition in my reloads, but may want to use either 140 gr (deer), or 175 gr. (moose etc.). Given the above, what load should I specify for regulation, or does it make any difference? TIA...Duane

400 Nitro ExpressFor 7X65R, I would suggest regulating with the 160 grain. It's a good weight for that caliber, and if you decide you need to use 175s on occasion, they're close enough you'll have a good chance that they will produce good hunting accuracy.

KebcoYou will need to find factory loaded ammo in the bullet weight you want. I know neither Norma or S&B load a 160gr 7x65R. You might look at RWS or one of the smaller ammo makers but remember the ammo needs to be available in France.
If you want a Chapuis 9.3X74R UGEX with double triggers and ejectors I will have several available towards the end of Oct. I will have both coin finished and case colored guns, all will have scroll engraving with no animals. I will be unable to answer email from 9/12 through 9/30 (gone hunting!!)

SnowwolfeDale is the gentleman who offered the "group buys".
This is his email address: dln@lakedalelink.net
It is my opinion he is 100% honest with impeccable intergrity.
My biggest fear is when I die my wife will sell my guns for what I told her they cost.

N E 450 No2I thought about getting a set of 7x65 or even 30-06 bbls titted to my 9,3 Chapuis, but after using the 9,3 on everything from turkeys to elephants I like that calibre the best.
I do wish I had a set of 20ga bbls fitted.

jimatcatdale is 1 of the easiest guys ive ever dealt with....it was smooth all the way...he basically overnighted my rifle so that i'd have it to go to the DRSS shoot...he followed up on it all the way thru....you'll have to look long and far to find a nicer guy....

go big or go home ........

Wow, what a great idea. How much would it cost to have a set of 30-06 barels fitted?
