I agree! Great-looking rifle, and in my favorite caliber.

Have you heard anymore detail on an upcoming rd or bull barrel run? Bobwian45662 wrote: ↑Wed Nov 13, 2024 10:10 am That would something to consider. I don’t think anyone is weighing rifles anymore. Even if it’s just a TAD over I don’t think anyone would mind. If they tell me that a half round 14# will be very close then that might be my best option. If a 34” heavy could get me to 14 pounds then I could have a pound of mercury put in the stock and be good that way also but I’m not sure if a heavy 34” would get to 14 pounds.

Re: Calling Bull Barrel Shooters
Nice Kenny, really nice! A simple question; is the bore on this heavy beast a little tighter than the standard sixteen-pounder, or the same? I would think the same, but just wanted to ask.Kenny Wasserburger wrote: ↑Sun Dec 01, 2024 12:19 am My 25# 45-110.

I can only tell you it’s tighter than my other two 110s. I have no idea with a 16# bore.opencountry wrote: ↑Sun Dec 08, 2024 6:29 pmNice Kenny, really nice!
