After you cut the wood to size, mix the saw dust with glue, fill and clamp (even if only a little) it'll fill nicely and take a stain better than fillers or epoxies.

Saw a good looking boxer in the same area a few years ago.
I think that's where I'll be next week, hope the shepherd found a home, If not, may be kind of hard to explain to my wife..... Honey, I went deer hunting and found this dog.....

After you rule out the scope and bases and rings; get some good bore cleaner (Copper out, Lead out) and follow the directions.
My 7 Mag did similar (2 1/2 MOA). I use Buffalo bore, Copper Out and Lead out. Follow the directions and scrub it (get a NYLON brush) Scrub until you're 100% sure it's spotless. let it sit over night (barrel down) then repeat!
I recently read that 98% of "shot out" barrels are fouling!
PM if I can assist - I'm in Georgia.

168 Barnes with a max charge of IMR 4350 (my go to powder) - remington brass and Mag primers,
Honest 3200 fps, and sub MOA at 300 (farthest I can stretch out on my place here in Georgia).
Works at 334 yards, I can tell you that much for certain!
If I can remember to hold where I want the bullet to strike!

He posted they are large but feel a little small to him - I've noticed the same, as have many others, The performance shirts tend to fit snug, not like a "casual" or work shirt, more like the athletic cut that's been shrunk a little.

Takes a little to get used to, then it's an extension of your body so getting tangled is not an issue.
Takes a lot of pressure off ankles and knees and distributes it through shoulders and back,
Also great for flipping a coiled snake out of your way!!!

temp rating in the US is not by any standard - there is a standard in Europe for their bags.
I remember a very long, interesting thread over on Whiteblaze.

Campmor used to have a down bag for $99 - I've got one 20 degrees.
Color is awful and the shoulders are too narrow for me.
I'm looking for a WM Badger but they're like $700 new......
Also, look real hard at quilts : https://enlightenedequipment.com
I've got a Kelty 0 degree and a slumberjack 40 degree, but usually go with the campmor 20. You can always unzip if too warm and wear a base layer if REALLY cold.
As stated, always go colder than you expect - you're in the elements and typically at a higher elevation.

Friend had a 25 WSSM for his 10 y/o grandson, He shot it no problem, I believe it was a ruger 77 but the recoil was nothing

It's been almost non existent sine the 22 craze. The 38 Special loads do a dang-dang on copperheads, rattlers and water moccasins in Georgia!!

I have a vais break I'd sell for 50.00 dollars. Dave 602-228-1719
What caliber? PM me, may be the easiest $50 you'll ever get on the 'net. (UNless you're Casey - he sells photos of himself for that on other web sites!!!)

I swear by Vais Brakes. I won't say I've shot them all, but I've shot a bunch, and for my $$$ it's a Vais.

6 acres will require a booster because of the length of the wire (underground electric fence) the newer ones are circular in that of the animal gets a certain distance from the center point, he gets a warning beep then a jolt. I had on on my property - worked great, dog learned to stay put, wire got cut and repaired and cut and repaired and burned, finally I said the heck with it!! Dog knows to stay on property.
Absolutely NO IDEA why the font changed???
Also, had a lab, beautiful dog - but the collar had ZERO effect on her - she didn't ground so no charge. Shock the HECK out of me when I touched her, but she'd lay on the trench where I'd just buried the wire and look at me and say "Thanks Dad...."

I thought I was going to get some, cooked diner, wine coolers: she fell asleep on the couch!!!

For an education in recoil reduction and muzzle brakes, I suggest you contact Ron Barrett at Vais Brakes.
A larger DIAMETER brake will be less effective (over size hole) a HEAVIER brake is more effective (more weight) but who wants to lug an extra 10 pounds on a light weight rifle?
A properly tuned brake in 308 will reduce recoil; however the standard is a 30 caliber magnum (maybe a 30'06??) so the further up and down you move from the "standard" the less recoil reduction percentage wise. In other words, say a 50% reduction in a 30'06 180 gr full load will be maybe a 35% reduction in a 308 and 165 gr load.

We camped last year, it was GREAT. Look at campmor.com and campsaver.com Also, check out whiteblaze.net for used gear sales.
I use a tarp tent and campmor bag. Weight is a big issue.
