My 375 H&H. Sorry for the annoying question but what mount is that? Want to put the same scope on my M70 9.3X62. That looks like it would position it far enough forward for me, I'm a bit of a stock crawler. Sorry, just saw this. Near Manufacturing out of Alberta. Not inexpensive but a flawless mount. Very nice, thanks.

The only rifle I have that hasn’t killed an animal is a late 70s 700 ADL in 30-06 with the bowling pin finish that I bought for the action. The gun is just about spotless so I might just keep it as is and use it this year.

As of a couple days ago I'm taking the 7600 off the list of "un-blooded":

I bought a Ruger American compact in 7mm08 in December. I want to take it pig hunting in Texas this next January.

1949 Marlin 336 .32 Win Special. I need to get a taller front sight for it. It is 5" high at 50 yards with the receiver sight bottomed out.

Didn't get drawn for elk so I guess it's deer season as the backup plan for the M70 EW if I get around to loading for it. Otherwise it'll be javelina with M70 SuperShadow CRPF or one of the AR's.

A couple of hogs dropped over the past couple of days. Early Rem M700 6.5 Creedmoor with Hornady ammo.

GWB tell me about that double rifle please. I have two new rifles to try to get bloodied this coming season. A Browning Safari Grade circa 1962 made by Sako with a medium heavy barrel in 243. Load development was quick with IMR4350. I fell prey to a Kimber Super America also in 243. Just to nice a rifle to resist.

That double is one by H Burgsmuller & Sohne. https://www.germanhuntingguns.com/archives/burgsmuller-h-sohne-kreiesen-am-harz/I was fortunate to snag it. I was pleasantly supprised at how well it was regulated using the factory Hornady 300 gr. Interlocks. Minute of Hoglet @ 50 yds. it is drilled and tapped so I will most likely mount an RMR. ya! GWB

I have a Remington 700 LSS in 7mm Rem Mag that I should try to get something with this year, as well as a Model 94 .30-30 that I just loaded some ammo for.
I also have a custom .25-06 that a buddy lent to me that I intend to try on some ground hogs, it’s twisted for light bullets, so my next project will be loading up some 75-grain V-Max’s for it.
Heal quickly and don't scar.

GWB- Thanks for the pics that sure is a nice rifle. My 405 is a Ruger #1 and it likes the 300 grain Hornady as well. Hopefully you can make some bacon with yours and I can make venison with mine.
