What were those that were selected?? Inquiring minds want to know!! If it keeps raining in IN you may want to invest in a boat to get to work. At least the roof will be outof water...hopefully!

Well it is Indiana, so all you have to do is wait a day and the weather will change, It hasnt rained for a week or so, the farmers are out and the roofers are getting some roofs done.
<br>
<br>I chose the 257 weaterby and the 7mm that John Haviland wrote about.
<br>
<br>Mr, Sisk has some Swarovski ph scopes that will go good on top of them both.
<br>
<br>I got a call from the gun shop today, the rifles seem to of caused a good stir this am. they called me to see if they could take them out of box and look at them, The 2 owners loved them both. I think they might be contacting Mr. Sisk soon.
<br>
<br>I got to work today at 6 am and left the peoples house at 7:30 pm..no time to go to gun shop...taking all day tomarrow off to make sure The 2 kids and I get accuianted well!!!!

Man oh man...got both rifles today....they are sweet.....Thanks Mr. Sisk, they are works of art for sure.
<br>My best guess is that they are sako actions with mauser 98 bolts with the extractor claw.....they are smooth as glass. Now I just have to figure out how to get them from truck to gun room with out the wife seeing them!

Christmas didn't last too long, I see you have them for sale. Nothing wrong with trying to make a profit I suppose.
