How long ago did you send it to them? Maybe this group can help you get some answers. https://www.facebook.com/groups/christensenarms/

Definitely get the tag and go.

Use Pay Pal.

Tim I hardly have any Morning Doves by me anymore those Collards push them out and breed year round. I found an egg that was almost fully developed broken on the sidewalk yesterday.

They shoot fine in my Colt and do OK on the few dogs I have shot with it but I have shot a few hundred over the last 30 + years using a 22-250 and I've only lost one. I've found the extra energy from the 22-250 puts them right down and coming out of a 24" barrel helps. All taken with a hand call.

Probably 80% of my shots were under 50 yards. A 2x7, 1x4 or red dot work well for close up shots. Are you going to use an e-caller or hand calls? https://www.sportsmansoutdoorsuperstore.com/products2.cfm/ID/222129

YES!

Great pistol.

Congrats on getting out there and also shooting a dandy of a buck.

Whatstheword is a manofhisword. Nice to meet you sir.

Mike, Give Chad or Kalli a call at LRI. They have done a couple of bolts for me and are top notch with a quick turn around. LRI is also on Facebook. https://www.longriflesinc.com/products/gunsmithing-services-bolt-fluting?variant=6829403045952

Beautiful old classic.

What does it weigh as it sits?

Beautiful hide too.

Ghostlike. Top buck for sure, I'd say the rut is on from the look of his neck.

Metau is a good guy, you can rest assured when dealing with him.

I've said it for years whenever this comes up. There is just no replacement for magnification.

Donate it to NPR and be done with it.

Especially in today's world of Social Media. Pretty sure the buck I saw died of old age. He was already old and well know locally.

No way I'm opening that link up. Having lost my daughter 12 years ago when she was 18 seeing stuff like this with kids involved is just too much to handle. I think it's time for me to put this post on the back burner.

Hey bud I heard a ram was shot.

You will get a bunch of answers. I have used 125gr HP's I loaded which after doing so I would opt for 158's.

Cool find. I saw a white Coues buck about 30 years ago, it was over 1000 yards away. G&F used to have a picture on the wall in their office of a white one with some does but it didn't have any antlers.

Have not. The 18's have a smaller FOV @ 194 vs 238
