    Bergara take down in 45/70 with one of our magnum suppressor. Rethreaded at 18x1.
    Nice real quality job. Thought I recognised it that's mine!

    The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds

    Yes. But only in S action length (308, 243 etc).
    Experience. What you get just after you needed it.

    Better than what they used to offer. 270 in wood blue. Shitter.

    Yeah sounds bad, like fluting so deep the bore is distorted, that’s also bad.

    That's what the Sako above is, the overbarrel hides the flute to thread though so only ugly on the inside
