    Smile Hello

    I'm from Marlborough. Been hunting deer and chamois mostly. Love getting into the mountains. About to get into reloading as it's getting hard to find .270 WSM around here.

    Welcome Hahn.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Thank you for the welcomes.

    Why do people think the WSM is no good?

    they don't like the 270s probably because they shot a tikka t3 in 270 and cant handle the kick

    Welcome mate. Good to have another top man shooting the king of calibers. We get abit of flak around here for it, but they fill the freezer just fine. The deer doesn't care when it's on your back going on its last ride
