Chin Guns and canted scope setups were popular in High Power Silhouette in the early 90's. But shots were only to 500 Meters and Tubbs was a phenominal shot who would typically center punch every chicken.

Project Medium Range Big Game Hammer
PRDATR replied to Hoss50's topic in Rifles, Reloading and Gunsmithing
Have you looked at what is available for replacement parts like triggers and stocks for both? Both are on par with each other ballistically to the point that performance on game comes down to bullet selection. -
I bet that's a bit of a confidence shaker.

So how far does shotgun shot travel?
PRDATR posted a topic in Small Game, Upland Bird, and Waterfowl Hunting
I was wondering and came across this handy chart. http://www.shotgunsportsmagazine.com/downloads/shotgun_statistics.pdf -
RAIN?

But that lifetime warranty..... Better to have it than not. Every manufacturer has to start somewhere.

I am going to go out on a limb and say he is shooting the Weatherby based on the grains of 4350 as the Win Mag would use less. I agree on using a slower powder and or playing with OAL but they like a bit of freebore. Do you have a chronograph? I would also ditch the sled. What does it shoot like with factory ammo?

Nightime temps can be in the 20's so put wool socks on their feet and bring gloves and a knit hat.

Did it work?

If they have held up I would just keep them but I have never used them. I have only ever used leupold two piece bases or talley.

Twice I have used a TC/223 and twice a 357 revolver but I have heard of people using 9mm and 44 Magnum.

Anybody here that can bolt down safe into concrete?

I thought that residential post tension slabs were 8" with cables spaced 48". -
Great story, congrats.

I have a first year stainless 700 ADL. Probably weighs more than a blue version. It sports a Zeiss scope and might be about 9 pounds. Wish it was closer to 7.

I hear Amazon is having most of their employees go to 30 hour weeks. LOL

Does Desert Rat have a store down there?

Congrats Mike, that has been a popular hunt no doubt and it sounds like a memorable one.

Tried to start a poll but it didn't work ?

This is why she is going to steal the election. -
You can drill them out bigger then glue in dowels and redrill.

I have never seen one. A good visual inspection after they come out of the tumbler will let you see splits and sometimes the ring before the case seperates but I have never seen a case separation on anything other than 223/5.56 cases.

They had a few options for that. I looked at their other stuff and the deals were about the usual markdown but the Terra line was pretty low.

Not to hijack the thread by Lance when he mentioned he compared this scope to some others and it came out on top I went out on the web to see what I could find on it. I am familiar with the HD line but not the Terra. Well it didn't take long to find and I know that Lance got a great price buy when I saw this I figured it had to be a misprint or something. Well I went ahead and ordered one and it is on the way, free shipping too and there is also a 2x7 model for a bit less. https://www.universalmania.com/products/zeiss-terra-3-x-3-9x42mm-rifle-scope-with-z-plex-20-reticle?variant=26305929863&utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=PLA&scid=scplp26305929863&sc_intid=26305929863&gclid=CIC-06_Eps8CFVJbfgod_CwLYQ

Putting an action in a stock
PRDATR replied to trphyhntr's topic in Rifles, Reloading and Gunsmithing
45-65 depending on the manufacturer of the action and what the stock manufacturer specs. Tikka is around 45 and Remington (Milspec) is 65. When I had a 700 action in an H&S stock I just used a T Handle and snugged them both up and it worked fine but this was a competition rifle.
