RE: Beautiful day to shoot - Plastikosmd - 04-11-2015 Ya, she is an old one. Should be a fun gun to work up RE: Beautiful day to shoot - J.B. - 04-11-2015 Now that's a very tidy range set up in beautiful surroundings ! A tracked Argo to get you there...and probably anywhere else for that matter. Yes... wouldnt mind this in my back yard. It's not 800 or 1000 yds but I could live with it. Very nice set up you have there.. very nice. I'm been looking at having a 7 x 57 built up for me and these photos just wet the appetite a little more. Gavin. RE: Beautiful day to shoot - Rick Mulhern - 04-11-2015 Neat....and a heavy barrel! I hate skinny barrels! RE: Beautiful day to shoot - Plastikosmd - 04-11-2015 Ya set up for 100, could set up a bit further back and get maybe 200 Short but at least it is just outside the back door.

RE: Beautiful day to shoot - Plastikosmd - 04-12-2015 Thx guys Prefer my barrels a bit chunky too RE: Beautiful day to shoot - bruce moulds - 04-12-2015 especially when walking in mountain country, carrying water, food, ammo, survival stuff etc, and aged 65. not meant for that. horses for courses. this was the de rigeur benchrest rifle of its day. keep safe, bruce. RE: Beautiful day to shoot - Plastikosmd - 04-13-2015 True, they are heavy Not a hunter so it only has to be light enough for the bench to handle
