$2200 with everything shipped. FTF with cash, $2100. New prices: Scope $2499 + tax Caps $40 Rings $150 Throw lever $60 Level $80 $2830 + tax

Dropped a scope off to ship to Alabama. No issues. Said it was a "precision optical equipment", the lady said, "A telescope?". I agreed, paid $101 shipping with insurance. An hour later, I got a call saying they could not ship a gun. Told her it wasn't a gun. She said we can't ship gun parts. I told her it wasn't a gun part. She said the box says for better shooting. I told her is was not a gun part, call ATF and ask them. She said she would not ship it. Screw UPS. I have shipped other scopes with UPS with no issues. I have received scopes from UPS with no issues. In fact, I am expecting a scope to be delivered TODAY from UPS.

I shoot almost every weekend, rain or shine, windy or calm, freezing or scorching. I just shoot less rounds and shorter durations when it is stupid hot.

Well, in the midst of several other projects, I had a bit of time today to get the Seating depth test loads ready to test out as soon as I get a chance. Original load testing was all done with the bullet touching the lands, at a CBTO of 3.105". Knowing I have a Wyatt's extended box waiting to go in, and wanting a repeater, I knew I would have a minimum of about a .0500" jump to fit the box. So I started just barely below that COAL max of 3.850" @ 3.846". That puts CBTO @ 3.072". I went down to 3.055" and kept a .020" difference from there on. Plenty of space in the Wyatt's box now.

Second coat of primer, and some base layers on. Finished the base coats.

Starting a McMillan.

I must be missing something. Where does it say molded in colors anywhere? The link to McMillan's site shows painted for all of the color options.

The 10/22 stock I did was wood. A lot would depend on the finish of the wood stock.

NF has the ATACR F1 and of course the "Beast". I have shot behind quite a few NF scopes, and they are good. Just never owned one. I think the ATACR F1, to my eyes, is not quite up to par as some of the other top tier scopes in the same price range.

I think he accepts: Schmidt and Bender, Kahles, Night Force and a few other cardsAlong with Premier, Tangent Theta, and Hensoldt.

Sold

Yes, it sold.

Awesome job. I use old pallets on my walls. Super easy. I have a wall similar to yours, and another room with the lower 36" around it in pallet slats.

My buddy has one. Not fancy, a little bit of a fixer upper. $1000.

Smoking deal.

Assuming you are not going to ship this, what part of the state are you located in? 928 area code is N. AZ, but that really doesn't mean anything.

In all honesty, if you want a short, lighter weight rifle, the .300RUM is not tha cartridge for you. I run a 28" barrel on my rifle. I would not want to give up 125+fps to lose 6" of barrel length and maybe 10-12 oz. I built it to reach out and touch something. From a prone or sitting position. If I want to shoot a heavy .308 bullet slower from a lighter gun, I would build a .300WM/.300WSM/.300RSAUM with a lighter taper barrel to carry around. I realize that is not your intent. But you also lose a lot of efficiency by going to a 22" barrel. Powder burn rates come into play and you could probably do better by using a faster powder to match the shorter barrel length. In all reality, the .300RUM was meant to shoot in longer barrels. That is why Remington introduced it with a 26" barrel in the R700.

$175 is a smoking price. Wish I needed it. Should sell very fast.

Rim too? Or just tire?
