Ok, this thing has got to go. Make an offer. Thanks Jim

Kudu it is!!! Jim

old bear, I'm sure Christensen test fired the rifle before being shipped to me, and yes they offer a accuracy guaranty of a 1/2" 3 shot group at 100 yards. It is a match grade Shilen stainless steel barrel that is wrapped with high-strength, ultra light, high modulus (don't ask me what that...

The weight came in at 6lbs. 1.8oz. with the thread protector and 6lbs. 3oz. with the brake. The scale I used is not certified but it should be very close. Thanks Jim

Good day all!! A few of the new 2-12x32 compact tacticals are in at IOR. I haven't seen one myself yet but they sound pretty cool. I have a picture I can e-mail if anybodys interested. I didn't ask but I'm assuming they'll come with rings and most likely the MP-8 reticule. Retail is going to...

wiktor, Your getting the cap screws to tight on the rear. Loosen them up a bit and you'll be good to go. The tolerences in the rear of the scope are very close. It's pretty easy to bind up the power adjustments. Let me know if you need anything. Jim

Does anyone know the dimensions of an average mature mule deer buck, chest height, ground to top of back, nose or front of chest to tail? Thanks Jim [ 10-10-2004: Message edited by: Q-Optics ]

It's a Ruger M77 in .416 Rigby. It's a stock rifle, no upgrades yet, and you know you can't be caught hunting with a stock rifle, it just can't be done. Jim

buglight, I'm working on a deal to go to Zimbabwe in the Danda North area after a couple cape buffalo. I tagged along with a couple friend on a buff hunt in Danda South this year. I was designated camera man. (I was really questioning my sanity after following up a wounded buff with nothing...

Taos, Muzzle vel. on the 350gr. barnes will be around 2300fps. That is a fairly mild load, it could be pumped up to higher vel. but it would increase recoil and really wouldn't make it any more effective at taking game. Edd Woslum of Evolution (AKA Pungubwe) has written a series of articles...

Budlight, I appreciate your insight. I tend to like the lower powered scopes for my off hand shooting, I get much over about 6x and those crosshair just start dance'n all over the place, which doesn't do much for my confidence. Especially when you have and angry 2000lb buff staring you down...

Ok, I'm open for suggestions here. I'm having a rifle built for a cape buff hunt but I also want to convert it to a long range paper puncher. It is going to be chambered in the .400 Tembo which is based on a .404 Jeffery case. I want to be able to which stocks, barrel, and scopes and have...
