[QUOTE="hubb, post: 685197, member: 25751"] tclose, sounds like the TC should work for ya along with the bullets you mentioned. Sorry to hear about the gun blowing up but glad you didn't get hurt. That would give a guy a flinch for sure..! I do like my DPMS 6.5 Creedmoor, It has a heavy fluted and cryogenically treated 24" barrel. I just put a Geissele match trigger in it and took it to the range yesterday for the first time with the new trigger. I shot a 3 shot group at 500yds off a bi pod that was 3" with factory 140gr A-Max's and then 3 shots with 120 gr A-Max's that was a little over 5 1/2". I knew it has always shot the 140gr better. 3 shot groups are not a real test but I was limited on time at the 500yd line for some guys wanting to shoot at 200yd so that was all I could do. I do understand about the hide thing with big holes, I'm 70 years old and made some extra money trapping as a kid and with my sons when they were old enough. I learned early how to not mess a hide up so you wouldn't be docked on the price. Getting docked hurt after freezing your butt and getting soak plus all the time and effort put in. My Dad did the same only for him it was more serious For him that was pretty much about all the money he would have at times when he was going to have as a kid growing up. Again I wish you the best of luck wolf hunting and all things you do. Have a good'n Jesse [/QUOTE]
