I went to the gun store today to pick up my new Ruger single six in 327 Federal, I am excited about this one, but the postal service 3 day priority is apparently taking 4+ days?
Maybe it will be in tomorrow?


I have a Mauser action/Maple stock (with Rosewood forend tip and grip cap) 220 Swift that may become a 220 Weatherby Rocket this year. I will look forward to seeing what your rifle looks like all done up. What caliber? One of my (too many) projects for this upcoming year is to do some serious load development for that 220. It has a brand new ER Shaw 1 in 9 twist barrel and I have never played with an ER Shaw tube. It will be fun to see what it is capable of.
