    takbok liked post by John Duxbury On thread : Backcountry Hunting Podcast - interview with Kiwi Nathan Foster

    takbok liked post by McNotty On thread : Mini Polished Honing Steel
    Don’t like the aggressive honing steels (shepherd steel) that most knife sheaths come with. The polished steels I like are normally big freezing works style ones that I cut down to make smaller but...

    Was adding recoil pins to some mounts so decided I may as well turn my Howa into a mini Tikka and slab side it. I call it the Howikka. Profiled like a Tikka front the inlet up, Howa mini from inlet...

    takbok liked post by Tahr On thread : Initial gun set up
    Sounds silly. Likely is. But back in the 60's we used to coat the underside of the barrel and action with car polish wax. It's what you did to your .222 if you were a real "commercial hunter". Don't...
