I suppose if a bear is charging you that recoil doesn't really matter....
Yeah man I've spent a bit of time behind one. Pretty lively. Great fun though. I'd own one for sure. I'd go a red dot or peep site personally

New to me 2nd hand Sako in 270WSM. Bit of a project, as thinking of re-barreling to 6.5PRC and building another stock.
Looking forward to playing around with a new cartridge in the meantime.

1880's S&W blackpowder double action in .44 Russian, my photo doesnt do it justice as in the hand it looks and locks up like it has only fired a few boxs of ammo in its 130 odd year life
The 44 russian was considered the best of the pistol rounds of the era and was evidently buffalo bills favourite. I assume it will be coming out of retirement?
It sure will be, soft loads of holy black only to preserve the gun. I like to fire my colection, even if some items dont see a lot of roundsQuote:

Bergara B14 "Extreme Hunter" in 308, 18" barrel and DPT suppressor, Zeiss Conquest 1.8-5.5x38 and talley rings. A bit heavy for what it is but I reckon these things are good value, way nicer action than a Rem700 much slicker plus has Sako Extractor and bolt release, stock is nice and stiff. Gonna go shoot it this arvo
I think its a chameleon, pretty sure its trying to blend in with the floor.
Please report back with what you think of it's performance - looks like a good packageQuote:

Still a bit of coin but cheap considering the last two rifles I have had probably had somewhere in the vicinity of $6-8k each sunk on them and a Sako Bavarian and a few others thrown in the mix along the way the last couple of years
Ok. Wasn't sure of the price of that model Bergara. I suppose it is up there in the same bracket as Tikkas and the like.
I see you've changed your signature:)
Enlightenment eventually comes to all... :PQuote:

So a bit of an update picked her up from the smith todayQuote:

I also swapped scopes from the 4-16 monarch 3 to a 6-24x44 Japanese made tasco target scope For those of you that don’t know this isn’t a trashco that’s the Chinese made ones the jap ones are a good bit of kit

Will be interesting :)
Will you do a test of the ruger break on your jig?
The quote "Do Bears shit in the woods" springs to mind :DQuote:

Hi all, new to the forum. Pretty happy with this setup in .284
I like the look of Hardy’s tactical hunter stock which might be the final upgrade one day. Love to hear any opinions on these.
Took a gamble on ring height with the 44mm leupy. Talley lows seem to do the trick. Originally wanted a DNZ gamereaper mount but They were out of stock and I’m impatient.
I’ll take some photos of the fire dot reticle when I’m out next in different settings. So far I’d recommend it based on quick target acquisition in the scub last week.
This is my do it all rifle, prob get a bow for my next project....
A quick little barrel project on my CZ 527 varmint..
A 22" long 6mm PPC that shoots the 70gr Sierra Blitzkings and 70gr Nosler varmageddon projectiles into tiny little bug holes at 3150fps. A fun little varmint cartridge "that really makes em pop"
