Now THAT is COOL!

I just bought a Remington 1903-A3 with a Sako take-off barrel chambered to 6mm-250... if it doesn't shoot I might have to steal your idea smile !

Steve, that last pic that appears is sheer '80s badassery, my friend. Vintage Iron, a gnarly trucker's hat and a Johnny Rotten glare.

You got some cool toys these days, too!

Well hey, I finally put a scope on the 6.5 creedmoor made it to the range today. I went with the Burris FF2 3-9x40 Bal Plex. I managed to bore sight and shoot 3 groups before it started raining. I got one 4 shot group of @ 5/8 inch. Not too bad for its maiden voyage with factory 120 grain AMax loads. The trigger is a little heavy, I guess I'll have to look into that but I haven't messed with one of the new ruger triggers. Anyway it shows a lot of promise. I may have to bed it and maybe put a better rubbed oil finish if I can figure out how to get the Ruger finish off. Any ideas? Thanks Les

Go to Lowes or Home Depot and get a tub of Citristrip. Brush that stuff on nice and thick, wrap in aluminum foil and leave overnight. Scrape the finish off w/ a credit card the next day. I've done that w/ several factory-finished rifles and it works like a charm.

Good luck!

Sorry Travis--been away. That was up close to the headwaters of the Huerfano River down here in Southern CO, above treeline on Blanca Peak. Anywhere above treeline (mostly) is good for chucks although there are more regs now than there used to be--something like 2/day as a bag limit. Here's a factory 7 BR from a few years ago also closer to Pueblo, CO--

OK...how about something you don't expect...a Remington Nylon 66 with a Red Dot scope ( aka: " The Red Dot of Doom") which we use for " rolling in hot" to a fresh gopher patch, before we switch off to the bolt guns.... grin
