Before then

A friends son drew that tag also.

Yes, Portal.

dbengraver, would you send a few my way also?

Was it three? I thought it was only two.

The forerunner of the 243, just a bit faster.

Adam actually owns and uses a bunch of Vortex Optics only Scopes though I think. I bought my son a pair of 10x50 DB's are they are pretty crappy. I did wack a 3x3 in Sonora in January with a borrowed rifle on the way out of a week long hunt. It was on another hunters rifle that I later found out that he fell on it during his hunt. It was off 15" or so at 100 yards. Sorry but in my opinion Vortex is junk. Extremely clear optics though.

Adam wouldn't own a Vortex.

Too bad Lon Ellington isn't with us anymore.

Post free to a good home and you remove. Not a lot of value.

Looks like Walnut. I have a fillet knife a friend in Utah made that has the same tight grain.

Beautiful dog hope you get her back soon. Interesting mix.

And that right there has me rethinking the B&C Alaskan in favor of an HS. The thumbhole I had many years ago was a great stock and it had some castoff which let my eye align perfect with the scope.

Cept that he owned that kid Casey 99% of the time.

Any perticular model?

I miss that guy!!!!! Funniest story there was in CWT for the reason he left!!! He bailed a few years before that and took a hiatus. Maybe we can ressurect him under the moniker of Highway 270. Pretty sure Casey could pull it off.

BDL will be more convienent to unload, will weigh a tad more. I have an ADL and after almost 25 years I am looking at a B&C Alaskan. Not sure about the Stockey CF but there should be no issue with a wood stock. If it's pillar bedded I wouldn't waste time or money doing a bedding job.

I put one on my sons Tikka a couple of years ago and paid a whole lot more than that from Sportsmans. The clarity is unreal, better than the Zeiss HD I had bought the year before.

Some guns can be finicky, the one I had was the factory heavy 24" Varmint Special, 9 1/4 twist. The only bullet that shot poor were some 140 PMC soft nose. They were almost 2" at 100 yards so I shelved them. A year later I Ioaded some up in my 7Mag and they grouped under an inch. Guess they just need a couple of hundred FPS more. I mostly used 748 and 4064 in the 08 IIRC and then later 760 for the 168's.

I handloaded the 7-08 for a bunch or years from 100gr up to 168. It is a very forgiving cartridge and accurate but if you are only looking at factory ammo I personally would learn towards the Creed. Higher BC par for par energy. I probably shot somewhere in the neighborhood of 3500 handloads in the 7-08 I had.

Someone should buy it. It would make a great project rifle if someone wanted to spend the time to strip the stock and do a nice oil finish.
