Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles Fence post pics (or any post)

mtcurman;
That is a fine photo Ben, I really like the way you laid it out and found such a unique stump to center the setup. Well done!

I am a wee bit concerned that we've been a bit of a negative influence on you though, as it appears that there's something blue on the muzzle end of your 600/Mohawk Remington there.

Thanks for the fine photo and all the best to you and your family in 2012 Ben.

Alas, I am afraid you are right Dwayne. Blue tape is on most of the guns in the house, except for my Mauser, which in addition to blue, also has yellow, white, green and black electrical tape! And also my .22, which has red instead of blue...

My brother is slowly going nuts because when we're on hikes or out hunting I am CONSTANTLY saying "Ooooh, that would be a good place for a fencepost picture!"

Sorry 'bout the hijack, here's another fence post pic.... It's sort of the reverse of the last one because instead of being nice and sunny and warm, it's blowing sleet and snow.



Ben

Nice!

What is the scoped single shot?

Winnie, the singleshot is a custom thick tang Winchester Lowwall .22.

I reeeeeally like that flintlock....

Thank you. I built it and it has killed a lot of deer, squirrels and one antelope.

This thread sure has a lot of barrels taped together....hows the accuracy after you put them back together?

Carlos, has sactroller cornered the market on shiny scopes too?

Clay Spencer built 204

Don't know. All mine are matte.

Ok Karnis whats the story on the bottom rifler? Cartridge and so on.

You must be looking at your computer upside down. The Top one gets my nod.

Ok. Here's the story. I was on the computer and looking in the classifieds and said "Hmmmmm, lookee there...." and I bought it.

Actually I bought it from Cliff444 (IIRC) a few years back. Originally it was a Ti in 7mm-08. Shot 140 gr boolits like they had eyes and since the wife wanted to hunt (it turned into her rifle before I could blink) I switched to 120's. It was ho-hum and being a bit crazed, bought a standard contour 24" SS Remington take off (classifieds-where else) had it installed and cut to 23".

Some way or another the Ti stock was moved to another SA Remmy and I bought a Ti BDL stock from Stocky's using a floorplate I had stuffed in the back on my goodee box. It now shoots the 120's and 110 TTSX's beautifully.

Unfortunately the rifle is still not mine. The wife repossessed and re-titled it. I'm sure it will be the last one to go.

Well she did good! Thanks for tips on bedding btw.

Very nice , very very nice

Hey Jim the Plumber, seeing that rifle again makes me wonder about the permits to use one. Were they hard to get or expensive, and how long are they good for?

I don't know if it would be legal to use one when hunting here in Iowa, but the idea intrigues me for some reason. I imagine on on the end of my low wall or something like that

I'd love to hear more about those funny cans.
