  1. still available.
  2. Gomer, If you post an "i will take it", we will work out a meetin place. Your call.
  3. I'll have a look to see but I'm 6'5 and 300 pounds and it is rock solid strong with me on it.
  4. My bud says the shiny looking writing in the pic looks weird. That is just a plastic protector that slides off. Like new underneath.
  5. Great for stretching your back... $75 Can meet in middle TN around Spring Hill, Fairview or Dickson area.
  6. A while back, i had the opportunity to grab an old Fulton. Turned out to be a great shooter.
  7. Not wanting to take over Erich's thread but can share what bit i know about the XM21 and it's commercial M21 enhanced version. Have a look at the Wiki page on the military history of the M21 and you'll find National Match M14s got a boost from riflestock and scope add-ons to be more accurate for sniper work. That improved system paid big dividends in backing off the enemy snipers plinking on our troops. To capitalize on those successful accuracy enhancements, commercial builders brought forward product which sometimes improved over what was acceptable to the military. On top of that, precise dual stage trigger geometry became a thing. In my opinion, Springfield Armory's version was the most refined and is probly what Erich is looking for. Hard to find and runs 300-400 bucks but is a definite improvement over the factory stick.
  8. I've had the VNSH in my cart twice now and everytime i go to complete the order, a little voice says, "naw!" Not sure if it's their web format or constant barrage of ads but something just ain't right. If you go thru with it, please let us know how goes. Like you, i'm curious but not enough to just add to the pile of flopped holsters. Smoky
  9. I was just there today and didn't notice anything diffrent.
  10. I've been asked questions about what the PC 629 is and how does it shoot. Well, my round count for this one is less than a 50 round box so not really extensive testing BUT i can certify it is accurate and the muzzle brake definitely tames the recoil. Clearly an apple popper at 50 yards and maybe a 100 on a good eye day. Could easily be scoped using the built on pic rails. For a fun range cannon or handgun hunter, it is top shelf, imo. That said, here's one of a very few reviews i could find... GunsMag on PC629 Magnum Hunter Thanks for looking and if you are interested, i am open to reasonable offers. Let me know what you're thinking with a PM and maybe we'll do a deal. Smoky
  11. This 44 mag is in excellent condition. Has the PC rug for storage and came bundled with a red/green dot sight that actually works pretty good. The True Value site says it alone is worth $1511 but i am asking 1500 for the bundle the way i received it. Can meet in middle TN around Spring Hill, Fairview or Dickson. Please PM any questions. Smoky
  12. Solid rifle as is but i can swap out the Raptor charging handle and remove the PA scope if you want a better price for just the original rifle. Not a big deal. Let me know. Smoky BIBLE BULLETS M14 GAS SYSTEM TWEAKS
  13. Yes. I been wondering what to do with it all. You can PM an offer to start a conversation. Thanks for asking Smoky BIBLE BULLETS M14 GAS SYSTEM TWEAKS
  14. Up or down trades considered... S&W 44 magnum or Colt Anaconda, CZ457 22LR or Remington 541 Maybe even a Smith 460/500 or an M1A.
  15. Reasonable offers considered.
  16. Palmetto State Freedom rifle with 16 inch stainless barrel. - Excellent condition... $925 - Tight lockup, Magpul furniture, Raptor charging handle - Primary Arms 3x ACSS scope with FlashKill Can meet in middle TN around Spring Hill, Fairview, Dickson Please PM any questions Smoky
  17. SOLD HENRY PUMP 22 with 20 inch Octagon barrel in excellent condition. Has pic rail upgrade. Shoots straight and lots of fun. $550. Can meet middle TN around Spring Hill, Fairview, Dickson. Please PM any questions Smoky
  18. Thanks for the great thought starters. After looking at more ballistics, i found the 6.5 PRC is almost identical to the age old 270 winchester. Even bullet weights mirror at 143 versus 145 gr. although the coefficients are slightly different. Think i'm gonna wait for the 7 PRC rifles to come on out. Thanks for all the input.

  19. Interesting. Sounds similar to the 308/30-06 debate. Right on about cost of ammo too. Crazy high when found. Thanks for the input. Smoky -------------------------------------- BIBLE BULLETS
  20. Found this interesting... BURNING OUT A 6.5 BARREL Granted, we won't be running a 1000 rounds thru a bolt gun in a few hours but it is worth noting the guy's groups were still pretty decent after the barrel got hurt a bit. Smoky -------------------------------------- BIBLE BULLETS
  21. Maybe.... I do know the 65 Creedmore doesn't get me anything my dear 308s can't do right now unless considering a bit less drop past 600 yards. Ever since selling my 8mm mag decades ago, i been wanting a laser beamer that don't kill on both ends of the rifle. It's suppose to be fun. The 65 PRC has more juice at 1000 and about the same recoil as my 308 so by the charts, maybe i am subconsciously drawn to it. Short action too. BIG downside is ammo availability but just have to watch closely for some to show up. Two bucks a pop will slow down the barrel wear too. Only money tho, right? Anyways, don't need another 308 so looking at options. Most of the youtubers talk big on the PRCs so figured to have a look around before plunking down green based on a shill's advice. Just stirring up real conversation amongst us end users. Smoky -------------------------------------- BIBLE BULLETS
  22. Long range for me used to be 3-400 yards. These days I have access to 1200 but I'll be doing good to group well at 800. My 500 yard groups aint bad lately with my 308 but it is gonna run out of steam past 600. Since I'm looking at adding a caliber to the herd, I was looking at more than just target. Something big enough for elk at 300.
  23. Very good points. Was looking at the 2020 Waypoint which has a lifetime warranty thus JUST rebarrel whenever it needs one. The cost is a lot more than a Bergara so there is a trade off. Still not turned off of the PRC enough to consider something else. Will keep looking at diffrent makes. All suggestions considered. Thanks, Smoky ----------------------------------------- BIBLE BULLETS
