Well....Obama made me buy it. just trying to sell it before Beto comes to my house for it.

When most big game is killed well inside 500 yds I fail to see the wisdom in using a bullet that might fail on a rib. This would by design eliminate a shoulder, front end, raking, etc, shot. Why not use a bullet with a stronger construction. I grew up with partitions and they have never failed me. I’ve switched to accubonds because of the better bc. My 7 with 160gr AB at 3200fps is still going over 1800fps with over 1200 ft-lbs of energy at 1000 yds and shoot lights out. If you are shooting extreme range why don’t more people have a two bullet system? At long range you should have the time to switch out or you shouldn’t be shooting. If if you’d put a 200gr AB or a 175gr LRX into the same spot on your bull you wouldn’t have had to track very far. You are lucky. Imagine how you would feel if you had lost that bull because of bullet failure. BTW: that’s a pretty bull congrats.

Sirocco bullets are bonded

For all 3 of my kids I had them shooting a reduced loads in a 280 Rem. Usually a 100 gr bullets at about 2600 fps. With a little load juggling I could get them to zero an at 100 yds with their hunting loads zero. I'd give them the real thing (160 gr @ 2900 fps at the time) during the hunt and they never knew the difference. They could shoot dozens of the reduced loads at a time before they were 10.

If you are like me you’ll do it again

You know they are like $16 at Sportsmans?

Ignore the quality of the pic...just focus on the quality of the buck!

Colorado

NIB. $2600?

You can make your own for $150 or so. Ive owned the Outdoorsmans and prefer mine. Been using it for over a decade now. I won’t leave home without it

I misread the post. I thought they wanted to transfer fuel. Sorry.

Just curious. I thought most pumps weren’t intrinsically safe and could start fires. Pumps listed as safe cost a whole lot more. Is is anybody worried about using a water pump?

I can ask him if he can match if you like.

I can hook you up with my supplier. NIB: STX around 2200, 85mm about 1600 PM me

I just installed rings, lapped, and mounted a scope on a friends new Barrett Fieldcraft. As the owners of several Forbes 24b's I have to say the Fieldcraft is a huge step above. I even sent a Forbes 24B to Melvin and had him re-barrel and paint the stock....the Barrett is still much nicer. Better Stock (I much prefer it to the Kimber), better finish, better bolt, etc.... Personally I'd take a hard look at the Barrett or the Bergarra Mountain. Having said that my friends Kimber ascent groups around 1/2 MOA.

Ate you selling the STX and 65mm for $2950?

There is a chance that your sear is so light that it is falling as you close your bolt. Is there a difference in the rear bolt protrusion before and after you cock it and put the safety on before you close it? i.e. is it actually cocked when it doesn’t fire ? In either case it sounds like you need trigger work: sear adjustment or a new trigger should fix it. Mike

This is a long shot but if its yours PM me with the details

No. Dang it. Still looking but but it’s an older seat.

CWT gets the first shot. Like the title says. NIB Swarovski SLC Tripod Mount: $100. NIB Binocular Doubler: $250 The doubler is getting hard to find I'm in flagstaff but I will be in North Phoenix on the weekend of the 23. $10 each or actually cost if higher to ship. Mike

SPF: just got 2 bids for $227.50 on eBay.

That’s why I sold mine 5 years ago. These are a friends Thanks for the bump

Tripod mount is sold The doubler is now $200.

That’s closer...
