    Plus 1 to the above plus two items that some may regard as nice to have but I regard as essential. They are decent handloading records and a chronograph. You should be able to positively identify...

    Greetings Sanctuary and all, One thing that only caberslash has brushed on is the need for a faster twist to stabilise the heavier and longer high BC projectiles that you want to use. I wouldn't go...

    Spotted that. Like the cartridge but not so much the rifle. Lets see what Ruger offers in their new Marlin rifles. 72 year old eyes and open sights don't always see eye to eye. GPM.
