  1. Cool Beans!!!! I got a pic! Thanks for the heads up!!!
  2. Get a bottle of #7 Shooters Choice bore cleaner and follow the instructions on the bottle EXACTLY. You have to dry patch the heck out of it after cleaning with this and each dry patch can only be pushed in once and out once. Seems like you're wasting a pile of patches but usually this effort will make quite a difference. I use this stuff on my bigger centerfires too. More work but way better results than any other bore cleaner I've tried. I won't bash other bore cleaners here but trust me I've tried a pile of them.
  3. No. You've been through the wringer on the cancer front. I've avoided this one. Trust me I have had another trial. Bless you for making it and knowing who to thank!!
  4. DUDE!!!! A bonafide John Rigby Double is worth a FORTUNE!!! In 470 Nitro Express? Holy Cow what a great rifle! I'm drooling! It is almost certainly worth at least FIVE FIGURES probably way up there in those five as well. Don't let anybody swindle you out of that piece, it's about as irreplaceable as they come. Please post pictures. That's an awesome gun!!!! Seriously, you need a safe to put that thing in.
  5. Over a month ago, my dentist of 8yrs was convinced I was in trouble. The Oral Surgeon took a biopsy and put in 5 stitches in my lower lip last week. Thank you God Jesus the results of the biopsy came back cancer free today. The tissue was indeed abnormal but it was also benign. Over 27yrs of dipping snuff. I know how lucky I am. I'm done with the stuff. 3 weeks so far. Yes I miss it, yes I still want it and yes it's still hard. But frankly the alternative is scarier. I got a free pass this time. I'll take that and move on.
  6. AGREED!!! If it's not bad the Breakfree CLP will be all it takes.
  7. Is that what ugly bucks do during the rut?

    Swampys back!

    Glad to see you back! Was wondering where that stompin bear went.

    Remember that satellite?

    Exactly why it's really going to be embarrassing if we miss.
  10. Cuba is absolute proof that "economic sanctions" hurt the people not the government. Next time you hear someone mention "economic sanctions", mention Cuba, Castro and then please SMACK THEM RIGHT IN THE MOUTH!
  11. Nowadays, the cost of a couple of trips to the computer "gurus" can buy you a new computer. So... Learn how to fix it yourself or live with it until you can buy something new. IMHO, none of the "guru" services are worth it in the long run. If you have legacy files you want to keep. Put them on a USB hard drive and move on. Learning how to fix this stuff yourself is the ONLY way you're going save any money with computers.
  12. Third degree is where the serious skill levels start. Your girlfriend is quite talented if she has achieved this. BTW, You're new name is Grasshopper!

    Favorite pizza topping?

    I've never tried bacon and sauerkraut but for some reason that sounds DARN GOOD!!

    Favorite pizza topping?

    I like banana peppers on any pizza
  17. I've gotta remember to try that one!

    Tipping the pizza guy

    $5 I don't think anyone delivers pizzas because they want to. IMHO, they earn that $5 extra.
  19. Checking references and researching the place might be cheaper than a "FREE" hunt. I don't know the place. But I'd proceed with caution.
  20. Hope this doesn't imply they are going to tank the Tikka T3. That would be a crying shame IMHO. Looks like the Sako A7 will fill the gap between Tikka T3 and Sako 87. That will put the Sako A7 in Direct competition with the new Winchester Mod 70s, Browning A bolts and Weatherby Vanguard sub-MOAs.
  21. You really need to shoot a target that's big enough to see your ENTIRE pattern at 30 yds. From what I see, I don't think the sweet spot of your pattern is even on the paper. IE. you may have to aim even lower than you think. Until you catch the WHOLE pattern on a target you will not know for sure.
  22. I know they are actually Russian Made Baikals MP153 labeled for Remington. But with a MSRP of $497 for a 3 1/2" 12ga autoloader some one's gotta be looking. http://www.remington.com/products/firearms/shotguns/SPR_models/spr453_autoloader_specs.asp
  23. Perhaps a wonderfully helpful suggestion for someone who hunts property neighboring yours.
  24. Get a Butler Creek Neoprene sling. Trust me, they are worth it.
  25. 5 shot MOA guarantee! That's impressive, if anyone can meet that it's Sako.
