[QUOTE="Boardmstr, post: 1441005, member: 105663"] Thanks Sykes, mesa looks like it could be a good route to go with the timeframe I have to work with. Tidus56 hunting starts in October for me. I’ll give a 419 a try. I’ve read a bit about the bighorns and hear good things about them but haven’t ever had one in my hands. I’m not questioning the quality, as it seems pretty unanimous they do well in that area. I just need to do more research on the barrel nut system vs the standard way before I feel comfortable dropping that kind of money on one. They work for plenty of people including myself but I just don’t know enough to make an informed decision yet. I’m planning on sticking with the 300 wm just because I’m already so established with a ton of Norma brass and have a few other rifles in the same caliber. With the way my collection is going I need to add a new caliber like I need more weeds in my lawn. That being said I’m also my own worst enemy. JJmoody, I’ll have to get in contact with you about that as a possibility. Haha Slick8, thank you for the recommendations. The glass is a whole new can of worms to open up too. I must have a bit of a feminine side to me because I can’t make up my dang mind about anything these days. I’ve also thought about just jumping around a few extra lbs with what I have already for the season and give me more time to end up with exactly what I want instead of take up space with one more that came close.
