I found you a used Rascal on Craiglist for $35.....so you don't have to walk picking up cans.
It has a basket up front for extree shart catchers and dual baskets in the rear for can colleting.
The orange flag is free.....

I did it. I feel tawdry and dirty giving in to peer pressure� By the time it arrives, I should be over the feeling.

I feel tawdry and dirty giving in to peer pressure� You should! Actually, I was sitting in a stand early Friday evening, getting soaked to the bone in a pouring rain, thinking to myself, "Man, I sure hope MRC sealed this stock!" By the way, not a single animal showed itself in that deluge, proving once again that most animals have a lot more sense than me.

So what are you putting together? One of the AIs will go in it Im pretty sure. And if not them the std. 223 with the 1 in 10 twist I do the bulk of my varmint shooting with.

For about 9 months now I've been fighting the urge to order a MRC XWR in 7x57 to match the ASR. We'll see how I do as the rains continue to fall (which they are doing as I type). But there's just something about putting a 7x57 in stainless and Tupperware.

Yeah�its just wrong. Kinda like finally getting a date with Heidi Klum, then putting a bag over her head.

I'm not quite sure it's that drastic!

Perhaps. Both both are horrible to think about.

Not too late to really make it shine, with a 12 twist in 222 mag, nice wood and a variable scope. This project hasn't passed the point of being a complete waste of time and money....

Just remember, with your age and their wait times, do not pay up front.
Congrats.

The neat thing about ordering a Mcmillan for a standard type inlet like a SA 700 is that if you get tired of looking at yours, it should sell in the classifieds in about ten minutes!
