Beware of thieves, scammers and dishonest members on the "Fire" classifieds. Ya there is a thief here too. Whatever!! They're all around the CampFire and everywhere.

Its an oldish custom with a Douglas barrel and Jaeger trigger, the 175 gn Speer grand slam is its bullet of choice. Gunner Trump Won!

Coyote Hunter - NRA Patriot Life, NRA Whittington Center Life, GOA, DAD - and I VOTE! No, I'm not a Ruger bigot - just an unabashed fan of their revolvers, M77's and #1's. A good .30-06 is a 99% solution.

In fact, it'd be a long action twin to my South Carolina FWT 7/08. Either that or I'd just have it be another 30-06 Last edited by Oregon45; 03/23/12.

I am adding another 7x57 on a 1909 action...take-down, with matching 6.5x57 barrel! And the action is CCH! Last edited by sactoller; 03/23/12. Official member of "The Clan of Turd-like People"

Folically_Challenged Campfire Tracker F Joined: May 2007 Posts: 5,741 (513)	I shoot a 700 MR, topped with a 4x32 Conquest. I found her here at the fire, listed in this Hall of Fame Classified Ad by the late, Great, Timberline. There was no way I could resist. I've used her to fell a critter or two... And she doesn't shoot too badly, either. I was pretty happy when I shot this group, but I was positively giddy when I poked shots 6 & 7 into the center hole... I was worried if my POI was still OK after I got to AK. Cmg graciously checked it out on this ground squirrel at 75 yards... As we speak, the stock is with Karnis for an infusion of his magic. It may not be the most beautiful piece of wood out there, but she's got character by the truckload. FC "Every day is a holiday, and every meal is a banquet." - Mrs. FC
