I have. No one makes a one piece model 70 base that has the proper hole spacing. I'm thinking this gun was drilled after the fact as the spacing doesn't line up with anything leupold could find.What thread is it? I might have everything you need laying on the bench in my shop. If you want the hole in the right place, square, and with good size threads (not wallowed out) you need to a.) Spot drill it, b.) Drill it) and c.) Tap it using a tap guide of some sort that will keep it all in line. Or d.) You can bring it and a six pack of beer out to Avondale some evening after work and we'll get you squared away. Man I appreciate the offer and would take you up on it in a heartbeat but I'm in ND! I should fly down there anyhow just to get out of the cold!!! It's the standard thread that leupold bases are (6/48???)

Bump for a sweet underrated scope. I have a 2-10 in the same. It ended up on my pse tac15 crossbow but I love it!!!

I've got pics of that bull the year before. I'll see if I can dig them up.

Spray paint or dip the BPS. Absolutely no need for a new gun. If you're comfortable with a BPS then keep shooting it. Don't fall for the 3.5" hype. I waterfowl hunt 50-70 days a year and haven't shot a 3.5" shell since the day they came out. I've actually switched to 2 3/4" for most of my waterfowl needs. Smaller shot is key. I shoot steel 6's and 7's for most duck hunting and 3's and 4's for snows, honkers and cranes. Speed is king. Get a good fast steel load that patterns well ina 2 3/4 or 3 " and spray paint the BPS if it makes you feel better. If you truly just want a new gun cuz you want a new gun then make sure you shoot a couple before you buy. They are all very reliable these days (except Turkish shiite and Browning's) but they all point very differently so make sure you find one that fits.

What's wrong with your BPS? I've killed an honest dozen dump truck loads of ducks and geese in ND with a glossy blues walnut beretta 390.

BB's and 2's for turkeys?!? Bump down to 5's or 6'a and you'll have 4x more pellets to kill them with. Remember a turkey is killed with a single pellet in the head or the neck so the more you can get in the swarm the better. A #6 lead has more then enough energy to penetrate a turkeys head out to 60 yards.

You'll be all healed up by sept! If not I have an awesome crossbow you can borrow.

Sounds like you need $20 and a plane ticket?

Wow! Traded my 2012 in around the end of 2014 with 99k and got $17k for it My 2014 that I got in early 15 has 77k on it already!

He has a heck of an arm and definitely helped the cubs take the series this year.

I used to have a 17 rem just like it. I'd kill to have that gun back.

Aren't you sitting on a bunch of points? Or did you draw recently?11 I like the way you roll. I've got a bunch of family sitting on 10-11 pts and are trying to hold out for a "premier" unit and all they do is keep raising tag numbers in those premier units and dropping them over in little old 4b. I'm glad everyone thinks it sucks.

I'm still a wanted man in show low.

That's not totally true. Private land issues make some of those goats unkillable. Very true. I probably should have phrased that a little different. I was meaning more along the lines of the weapon then the land ownership but you are correct on that.

What about 19a muzzy? Guaranteed he'd get it. With muzzleloader technology these days there isn't a goat in the unit you couldn't kill with a little patience and some range time.

I'm hoping to try this if I fill my buffalo tag this year!

I thought that was one of those cheesy outdoor picture wallpaper backgrounds the elk was in front of and was thinking to myself "dang that background looks realistic!" Then I saw the leg of the pedestal off the edge of the concrete and realized it was real!!

You should email this guy, I'm sure he's in the market for a few new swords. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=4dKwHOfd2dk

This is why there's so many BR 2's up for sale right now!

Second on the 32 ammo if it falls through

1.3% multiply that times 4 for your points is 5.2% and then since you listed it for all three choices you get to cube it so it goes to 140.6%. You should draw for sure unless my calculations are off.

I found a guzzler in 4b one time that was plumb full of them. Maybe that's common?

Haha. I'm guessing they didn't fit real well!
