It's pretty expensive. I do plan on getting one of their extractors for my CRF 7mm-08.

I haven't taken a picture yet. Deer and Elk I suppose. I may try to load it down to .30-06 levels for deer.

My wife put everything up so when we return from NC we don't have to do it.
I hope I get a VX-II 3-9X40 in my stocking.

I thought you sold your last Leupold and would never own another one............. I can't really afford a Conquest, and I think these Model 70s deserve some bling.

The bottom metal came in from Pacific Tool and Guage. It fits perfectly, functions properly, and all needed parts were included. I just need to blue it.
