  3. There are only about 150 chances left. Don't wait to long to get in on the fun. David
  4. There has already been almost 60 chances sold, so you better hurry if you want in on the fun. David
  5. Only 300 chances will be sold. We are hoping all 300 will be sold before the 23rd so we can give it away before Christmas. It would make a great Christmas present for somebody. I think these will sell fast and will most likely given away on the 23rd. Good luck. David
  6. I bought this online and got in a hurry and ordered the wrong size. This is the large, which should fit the 15x56's and any others in that size. I have been using these for over ten years and they are some the the best investment for your binos. I would like $25. I'm in north Peoria. David

    Coyotepalooza

    Went out this morning with Goatsie and we had a good morning smoking some dogs. We lost one to the salt cedar and one we wouldn't touch because of the mange. I threw a little dust on a couple around 300 yards. David

    2 tripod stands

    I have two tripod stands. The one on the right goes together with bolts. I think it is a big game stand. I would like $100 for that one. The one on the left goes together with quick release bolts. I think it is also a big game stand. I have included a pic from cabelas to show it assembled. I would like $125 for that one. David All the parts are there for both.

    How did you guys come up with the genius idea to rail mount the rifle to a tripod? David

    Tundra versus bull elk (pics)

    We find this truck parked along highway 87 north of Happy Jack Sunday morning. My buddy drove by about an hour later and somebody had already cut the horns off the bull. David
  13. Late last year I got a new chambered barrel certificate in trade from another member and thought I would just change out one of my rem700 rifles. But then I thought why not just build a rifle I really wanted. I visited the gunsmith in Prescott called Classic Barrel and Gunworks. He specializes in cut rifled barrels. While we were talking he mentioned that he built some custom hybrid actions years ago. The outer part of the action is Rem700 and insides are Win70. He only made 24, but said he sold them all. I said I was looking for a left hand eject and he stated he had one left hand eject remaining of the group. He assumed I wanted a right hand when we first spoke. I think I remember it being lucky number 13. So I'm trying to build this rifle as light as possible, and still get everything I want. I ordered an Eliseo chassis a couple months ago and it should be completed mid March. I prefer the forearm on this chassis since it is similar to my AR I shoot a lot, plus you can use AR butt stock and grips. It also comes with a 20 moa rail machined into it. The pic I have included shows a right hand configuration, but mine will be on the correct side. http://www.gotxring.com/hunting/ I went with a #3 sporter contour 20 inch barrel. I found a great article about a guy that cut his Creedmoor barrel down and didn't loose much velocity. This should reduce some weight and still shoot good. The twist rate will be 1/8.5. I decided on a 4 port muzzle brake to help with recoil. http://www.muzzlebrakesandmore.com/Ported_Muzzle_Brakes.php http://precisionrifleblog.com/2013/07/16/6-5-creedmoor-barrel-length-and-muzzle-velocity/ There weren't many choices for a trigger, so I went with the Jewell HVR with safety in the trigger gaurd and it will work left or right eject. The chassis uses a magazine and after a lot of research I found Alpha Industries makes a very good mag that allows you to load out to 2.965. This will allow me to load the Berger VLD's long. Its a double stack with a single feed. http://www.alphaindmfg.com/store/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=51 I also found a cool butt stock made by Luther-AR that is lightweight and ambidextrous. http://www.luth-ar.com/the-mba-modular-buttstock-assembly/ I already have a Nikon Monarch 5-24 power with the fine crosshairs and small dot in the middle. I haven't decided if I'm going to order the bullet drop turrets. I have already been loading for the Creedmoor for a while since I have an AR-10 in this caliber and I really like it. Brass is inexpensive and easy to find. I just want to upgrade my dies. I will add more pics as I get the parts. I have done some initial weight calculations, and it should be right around 9 pounds. It will be pleasant to shoot. David

    Building my 6.5 Creedmoor chassis

    First target is 41.5 h4350, and the second is 42.5 h4350. I'm gonna work up some more loads below and above the 42.5 and a couple in the 43s. David

    Building my 6.5 Creedmoor chassis

    H4350. I also shot some rl-17 through it last week and it has potential also. David

    Building my 6.5 Creedmoor chassis

    I got a chance to run out today and try a few loads. I stopped by Goatsie's house to pick him up and we loaded 15 rounds up real quick and headed out. I used brand new Nosler brass with no case prep. The first target I shot dead center on the first shot and second was touching. The hits above center I think were from barrel heat or the barrel was touching my sand bag. This was 11-15th rounds out of the gun. The second target was 21-25. There are 5 shots and 1 was inside of another hole. I'm was using 130 vld's loaded .0011 off the lands. My coal was 2.959. I'm gonna load up some more within a grain or two of my last shots. I just recently switched to Wilson seating and neck dies to improve my reloads. It was kind of cool to just seat the bullets in the case using my hand. My 21st Century Arbor press showed up in my mailbox this evening. David

    WTB 6.5 Creedmoor brass

    I just picked up some Nosler from Brunos last week for my new Creedmoor and it is much better than the Hornady. Consistent weight and necks. Brunos had 5 boxes on the shelf when I was there the other day. David

    Barnes LRX bullets?

    I did a little reading about these bullets when I was researching for my Creedmoor, but they were hard to find. I was at Cabelas this morning and saw a box and grabbed it. Has anybody tried these on any animals? David
