I went to North High...It was that or Alhambra High. Not sure which choice is worse, but those were the only 2 choices.

1" rings? Flat rear receiver or round?

Vortex 6x24x50 FFP Viper HSLR is on order! I picked up some Berger 210 HVLD's today and also managed to find GM215M primers to match them with!!! I picked up 2 boxes. This build is coming together!!! -
I was inline this morning when the polls opened. I am not optimistic that Trump will win, but I did what I can do.

I almost went to mechanics school, but this is the reason I didnt. A family friend was a mechanic and he had lots of projects. He rarely had a finished drive able project.

Here is my crawler.

I have a savage 110 in 300 win mag I am working on building. I ran into a problem today though. If I want to make the shells COAL longer they don't fit the magazine. I have the 208ELD-M bullets seated at 3.45 and it will only allow 1 round in the magazine and 1 chambered. Is there any way to lengthen the stock magazine so I can fit all the rounds? I am not opposed to a 2 rounder, but having the other 2 rounds would be nice.

I used Casey's last year, and if I can connect with another elk again this year I will be using him again. They did a great job. Harley

1 step closer. My buddy picked up his and my rifle from the smith today after getting muzzle brakes added. They are cerakoted black and look great. Mine is the 5 port brake on the heavy barrel. The Talley lightweight rings showed up today too. Now I need to order a scope... -
I don't have any $$$ anymore. I haven't really done much with my crawler since my first son was born almost 5 years ago. I finally broke down and sent it over to a buddies place to pay him to do some work on it since I have zero fee time with 2 kids under 5 years old. I have devoted more time and energy into hunting over the last 5 years though. It is easier to grab a paid for fully functional gun and go to the field to hunt than it is to find time to fix a broken crawler & trailer and find the money to pay for the parts to fix what you break when you go out.
-
Yep. $100 pending.
-
I have thought about using it on my late elk hunt next month, but it has no doors, top, windshield, etc. Sounds very cold...
-
Mine is hunting and rockcrawling. Still not cheap. I do have a 500 CID Caddy V8 in my rockcrawler though so it is kind of a dirt hot rod.
-
If anyone has one please let me know. I would like to put 1 on a recent addition to the collection that is missing 1.
-
Yep. I have never been a small person. My football coaches gave me the name in high school and I cant argue that it doesn't fit.
-
I will take them please.
-
Very cool truck. My other hobby is being a gearhead too, so I love to see stuff like this.

I bought a box of 208gr ELD-X to start working with once I get the rifle back and the scope ordered. I ordered rings and they should be here soon. Talley 1pc Ring/Base Combo. I will probably start working with the 208gr and H1000 to start with. -
A buddy of mine has the 300 Win Mag and really likes it. I would definitely consider it high on the list if I was in the market for a new rifle.
-
Either buy brass new or form it from new 7mm Rem mag brass. It will be the most consistent. I have made most of my brass from Remington head stamp 7mm Rem mag brass. It has worked well for me so far. The gun and load shoot sub-moa easily. Harley
