castnblast Campfire Regular C Joined: Dec 2004 Posts: 2,325 Saskatchewan, Canada	Originally Posted by BC30cal castnblast; Thanks for sharing the photos of one of my favorite rifles. I even like the mods you've done on that one.... To be honest though, I'm torn between what looks better in your photo - as calf moose is about the top of the heap when it comes to game meat that I've tried. That sir has the potential to be many, many fine dining experiences. Thanks again sir for your contribution tonight, all the best to you folks and good luck on your remaining hunts this fall. Dwayne Thanks for your kind words Dwayne. Alas, that calf was eaten up far too soon! Very yummy. Regarding the mods to my rifle, I kept all the original parts and had the new ones fitted by Ralf Martini so that the originals could be replaced at a later date. I was very reluctant to do any mods to this old and classic rifle but this way I can have my customized rifle and the original too!

So far it has been around for 3 of my largest bucks. In fact, it only shoots bucks and then I put it away for the year. Hey - did you steel that out of my gun safe? Nope - I just checked and its brother is still there. Other than that, How was the show Mrs. Lincoln?

Other than that, How was the show Mrs. Lincoln?

It was a bit of a challenge loading that one after dragging it 500 yards in a cold rain with a wrenched back. I don't have a field photo of it yet but I used my current favorite rifle, a LH 700 stainless with a Rock Creek barrel chambered by GAP.

This 284 has been producing for me this year, but any of them will work. _______________________________________________________ An 8 dollar driveway boy living in a T-111 shack LOL
