    Smokepoles what is the stock on the green rifle. Look for ultralight with Monte Carlo check but I really like that profile of grip...does that have some palm swell too?

    Gun decision for my sons first rifle

    I have several Model 700....I was interested in the 798 not the 788. Although I have always been intrigued with the 788. I would not mind finding a used A-bolt either.

    SSG 300RUM First trip to the range PICS

    It is a Zeiss Conquest 6.5 x 20 x56. I was at the range with my older brothers Leupold and younger brothers 8-32 NF and my glass fit right in. Now that I think of it we should have done some side by side comparison while we were there all set at 20 power.
