That BDL looked really good but one major drawback was that long crack by the bolt handle.




I doubt you'd ever get a 7x57 to stoop that low.

Yeah, it's a stock job waiting to happen.

That winchester is perfect. Wish I lived in Colorado - it'd be in my safe.

One more note on the 7x57. You cannot own and fire one unless you have some for of mustache. Preferably a large "english" looking one.

How about a grizzled old beard? And by the way, living proof that camo isn't always an absolute necessity.

Rev you are a man after my heart, I'm a plaid and jean kinda guy!

Nice! 2 thumbs up

I sent that picture to an old flame just to show her that the Old Man could still shoot. She said, "Nice pig. Now please don't tell me that's the shirt I bought you thirty years ago." I said, "Well, the pants are new."

Nothing wrong with "Broke In"

Amen! That old Winchester I'm holding was made in 1962, and even though the outside looks like it's been stored on the outside of a submarine, the bore is as bright and shiny as the day it came out of New Haven. It's pretty broke in itself.

By the way, I shot that big old boar at a touch over 200 yards with a borrowed .30-06. I took the Winchester to use if I needed to since it's pretty hard to see through a scope at about 10 feet; and if these big fellows aren't really, really dead, they're generally really, really mad when you sting them in the neck with 180gr Core-Lokt PSP. But he did what they always do with a CNS shot: drop and die right there.

Look at you ingwe, making friends and setting trends. That's awesome.

Well, I went and got 'er done. I bought that 7x57 I posted a pic of just moments ago so, soon she'll be mine-all mine!! Reckon I'll have to work on the mustache as I've slicked faced currently...come to think of it, nearly slick headed as well. Hair only grows in the ears and nose now.

Good for you! My CC just breathed a sigh of relief! Let us know what you do to it and how it shoots.

Now to decide on a scope. I need to find more bullets than what I have. Fifty Nosler Partition bullets won't go far. I'll bet it'll knock the knee caps off a fly at 100 yards, whaddya bet?

It wouldn't surprise me. How about a 2.5-8x36 Leupold in low mounts?

Or a 2.5x Leupold Lightweight in Talley lows?

Either will work, I'd say. I think maybe even a Vintage Lyman All American 4X Perma Center would be appropriate.

Kitch, do NOT pay any attention to this guy. He will cost you money!!

That too.

Mine wears this in Talleys, nice combo.
