beautiful rifle


Thanks. It was my father-in-law's rifle. This year was the first time I was able to shoot something with. I got some brownie points with my wife for taking her dad's old gun hunting with me. smile

Most of my brass comes from firing factory Remington 100 grain core lokt ammo. I have a bunch because I got a good deal on it some years back, and it is very accurate in all my rifles so chambered.

Still reloading for it. Got a mix of new bagged brass, and once/twice fired factory box stuff. Definitely got enough to last a long time, especially since H4895 and 87gr Speers at 3000fps just doesn't seem to stretch the brass that much.

Gonna be loading some up tonight.

I just packaged up all that have requested free 250 brass. I will keep the 200 I have left over.
