Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles Truck gun on the cheap?

Yes they do.




Dave

Word.


BTW, have you tried Deschutes 'Pinedrops' IPA?

Yeah. I don't like that brewery.

Bent Nail and Big Sky are my staples.




Dave

I like it better than the Big Sky version.


But it is from Bend so negative points automatically applied.

Cold smoke and summer honey is what I get when I'm out yalls way.

Ruger Scout in .223. Stainless. On sale @ North 40.

Dare I?




Dave

Might be the best suggestion yet...

Keep the Montana and spend the loot on beer and bullets.

I love the .22-250, but unless you are doing lots of shooting beyond 300 yards, the .223 is cheaper.. Lately, I have just been picking up 50rd boxes for my AR, easier than reloading.. Great thread.. Right now my truck guns are an AR .223, a .22-250, and a .25-06, plus pistols and often a shotgun..

Sorry boys but I just finished a scientific comparison of the two breweries....four beers from each.
They were all pretty good but there were three I wouldn't buy again. I'd drink em if you were buying though.
Two were from Big Sky but only one from Deschutes.
I also tried Fat Tire and Shinner Bock.
Surprisingly Flat Tire was right up there at the top along with Moose Drool/Big Sky IPA from MT and India Red/Black Butte from OR....Flat Tire's dam good. I liked the Shinner too but I think it'll be better in the summer.

Charlie, it looks like you bought the same sampler pack that I did!

Chilly, snowy and windy today which are the makings for a Porter afternoon....



I'd go with a 22-250 but am patiently waiting for Kimber to figure out how to twist one right for the Montana.

This is gonna be a 'short' range gun that will probably shoot mostly factory ammo. That Fiocchi V-max deal looks good.

Yea....I bought one from both breweries plus a six pack each of Shinner and Fat Tire.
I'd never strayed to far past Porters and Stouts in the fancy beer world before.
Turns out I like em all. That doesn't really come as a surprise though. HA

I think a 223 with the right twist is an excellent choice for your intentions. Good luck with it.

a lot.

Nice selection of beer there guys.. Montana brews are tough to get here. Bent Nail is my fav.. The wife likes Moose..
We get the Oregon stuff it is good.. Red Lodge Porter is our favorite all time dark beer.. I think it is only on tap..

The porters are tasting good right now.


Something about dark beer on a chilly day....


The peasant rifle is on the way.


Thanks again for all the good advice. I actually ended up buying one off of GeoW's link.

What was your choice????

The ugly one....

I like the Monte Carlo comb, but those grip inserts are butt ugly.

Nice score Sam. I'd considered that model in .308 for awhile but ended up with a 700 AAC - then couldn't leave well (and cheap) enough alone. *grins*

betting it will shoot, outta the box.
