You wont believe it till you see it Geedub! Its something only a mother could love...and I've been called a "Mother" a number of times! It'll be awhile till the unveiling! Since you are alluding so something ugly, does anyone know what happened to that god-awful McMillan stock that was brown and white in the flame pattern that showed up on here a couple of years ago? The one that looked like schit on a stick? I haven't seen any pictures of it lately.

Your McFlame deer is horny-er than mine. I've become a little more conservative with stock colors lately and I'm getting bored with the blandness. I think it's time to order a few that bring sexy back. I need to order a few with colors that really pop!

Shoot, Ingwe: I was going to see if you wanted me to send some 150-gr NBTs and 175-gr NPTs back. Darrik,
I was actually surprised when Tom listed the 7-08 as a possibility, since he's Mr. 7x57. MD, I think he's lost that title.

Cant wait toes your next color scheme, as long as it doesn't look like the " Septic Tank Swizzle Stick" you posted earlier!

Congrats on buying a .243 barrel,I knew you were very smart. Hell , I just bought another one..one with sights and one without, to see which I liked best. ( The sights are a hint at the old school styling Im going for....)

Not me, Ingwe, I just happen to have the rifle that made you Mr. 7x57. I'm sure there are others that are more looney about it than me. On the other hand, looking around my loading bench the only thing I see is 7x57 brass and .284 bullets. But I do want to see the fruit of your upcoming Stunt Shooter stint. Good hunting!

Gentlemen, thanks for all the input..I now have the germ of an idea that may fester into a full blown infection....and its looking more and more like .243.....we shall see! A classic for a classic. Would not want to get too modern.

Ingwe - stick with a 7mm-08. Has a bit of the panache of the 7mm Mauser but w/o the "modernity" (is that even a word?) of either the .243 or .260. Homesteader
