The new egw rail should be here today then it's off to Phoenix custom rifles for Keith to work his magic.After that ill need another set of rings and then I can mount the other new scope.

For you guys running the long berger bullets in your 280s what do you need for mag box oal ? I've got a tikka m695 and want to do a 280 ai from a 30-06. The only question was if it would have a big enough box to run berger bullets.

Only a couple weeks left to get in to win!!!

Well a trip to see Keith at Phoenix custom rifles and it didn't take long to see that the 2 piece weaver mounts were not going to work .The height was off from front to back and probably screwed up the scope .Were going to go with a egw rail and fix it the right way and as for the scope I have another one just the same new in the box and will send the other back to vortex.I want to make sure the kid who wins gets a gun that will be ready to go and done correctly .

I've got some 20 ga shells that were donated for your kids .2 boxes per kid till there gone.kids must be present to pick up located in gilbert

Pending meeting all the shells are gone .Good hunting to all the boys and girls who got some shells.We went thru 600 shells as it was all I had or could get .At 50 per kid that's 12 kids that might not have had the resources to get out and shoot. Thanks to all that helped with shell donations .

The only ones I could see are on Craigslist even the ones from some of the wrecking yards were more

Getting close to hunting time. Good luck and good hunting to all hunting pigs on the ham hunts.

I did get it out and run a few rounds thru it about 2 week ago and it was drifting zero right and left so I cleaned the bore and was checking the scope and mounts and found the bases were loose and it has a stripped hole .So it's going to the gunsmith and I'm going to have it drilled and tapped to 8-40 .I want to make sure who ever wins gets a gun that is going to be ready to hunt.

First light till around 1130 or when the brats are ready.I usually have the best luck early.

Just some gun history .The gun is a remington 1903 with a serial# of 32925## and the best I can tell is a two groove barrel and was made in 1942 Oct or Nov so its 80 years old and still shooting.

Just a run down on the gun history its a remington 1903 .It looks like a 2 groove barrel and with a serial # in the 32925## range it would put production at 1942 and October or November the best I can tell .That makes the gun 80 years old and still shooting.

I got 3 boxes of 222 ammo by mistake.my loss $26 a box Located in Gilbert

Ammo is sold pending meet up

Keep the entries coming .I love to see the parents with girls applying.I'm seeing about a 2boys to 1 girl ratio right at the moment.

Not the new Broncos There like the prius of the off-road world .give it to ford for putting a skirt on a explorer and calling it a bronco .only the early Broncos were bad a$$ the ones from the late 60s and 70s.

Anyone in the industry will tell you modern is a high turn over shop and yes they do train to a degree but every single person that comes from there or cassavant would not make it a week in a real machine shop.ill take skilled help over the quality of most people that come from there.with 20 years in the trade myself I'd agree with the op in that being a good machinist is a dying trade.most of the work has gone to Mexico .SO for those that like to fly or drive your cars remember there parts are made by the lowest bidder and there is almost no quality in them anymore that's why we are always fixing our cars for stupid s##t that breaks .

That sucks .I've been there I've had 3 surgeries on my right knee and after a weekend chasing pigs it swells and I can't hardly walk for a few days then its back out to hunt.THE wife keeps asking why I do that to myself .my answer is it beats going to work.

.

I don't have youth shot guns but I do have just under 100 rds of 20 gauge shells left 50 from what was donated to give to kids to use and just under 50 that were personal use your welcome to if you can use them for the kids.

I got two right before Christmas and just got a email that they got all my paperwork and fingerprint cards last week .so I guess I'm waiting for the confirmation that they sent it all e- filed to the atf.I ordered thru silencer central.sounds like the kiosk system is quicker as it does your fingerprints and you don't have the delay in the mail process.

I could use one for a scoped 10 inch barrel and a scoped 14 but I'm not going to jack your post to get it . newbie? Maybe.

The only place that seems to have any is unfortunately Gunbroker .

Getting close to the end of the season I've got 2 boxes left !!!
