When you're a dumbass, you sell good stuff for dumb reasons, and sometimes the good stuff finds it's way back to you. The stock from this rifle.... Made it's way back to me, and I dumped a Stainless Steel 700 7mm Rem Mag into it. I didn't even bother rebedding in an effort to save some time and hassle, and I fortunately lucked out in that-the rifle shot great today. Dogshooter, his friend Steve, and myself ran through a short course of small steel targets from 250 out to 633 yards today which proved to be a good little test for the gun and my rusty shooting. Standard load of 66gr of IMR-7828, CCI-250s, and a 162 A-Max kissing the lands pounded everything I pointed it at, and was a great break from class and work. Oddly enough, I could not find a ladder anywhere out there. I'll get off my soap-box now... just thought the whole thing to be kind of funny. Tanner

Set it to remind me to bring a ladder to a roof job.... that would have saved us a couple hours the other day.
The .260 ran aweful well today.... I'll bring it to Raton in a couple weeks.

Glad you got the stock back Tanner. Don't let 'em ride you too hard. It's a disease. I don't have the cure yet either.....I have 2 6.5 Creedmoors I'm thinking of dumping for the Xtreme Hunter in 6.5 SAUM....
....and one of the Creedmoors is an unfired GAP barreled action! It may go before I can even shoot it.
Glad the 7 is working for you.
I enjoy handguns and I really like shotguns,...but I love rifles!

Jezuus! Can I start getting first rights of refusal? I'm one to talk. I'm thinking of building a Creedmoor on a Montucky... Tanner, what kind of stock is it?

Tanner,
Does this mean that the T3 Tikkler and 3-9x Super Chicken are gone? Just get bored, or couldn't pass up the old stock?
