Hey Roy

Nah, not my face. I'da choked and missed the shot. Have done it before. Missed a huge 4X4 11 times from about 150 to outtasight cause I had the scope on 3X and tho't it was on 9X. By the time I figured that out he was runnin' over the horizon and I was still shootin'

RE the stories. Hell, I got some I'd like to tell cause I'd like to know how they end

Once the trade is made I'll probably leave the #1 a 375. I'll work up a load with 270 or 300 grn bullets then load a 100 of 'em and they'll last a life time.

bigbrother: Gota keep the weight of the 338-300 to less than 15 pounds, loaded with scope and bipod if I choose to use one. That's the legal limit in Idaho for big game hunting. (Regulation is made to keep the BMG shooters off the mountain). Don't want to get into a pissin' contest with a fish cop, they can be pretty pricky at times. Out here they are starting to wear ear rings and hug the trees.

We figure if we shorten the bbl to 28" not counting the break and use the heavy contour then do the spiral flutes velocity won't suffer, and stiffness will be there.

Thinking seriously of a weaver tactical scope with the mil dot in whatever plane it is that keeps it calibrated regardless of the power.

Then I'll do pretty much the same as spark. Click the rocks and bottles, chucks and stuff, then mil dot the big game.
