I dont remember the version but it was the 1971 model. The year I was born. Hoping to buy one some day. Had the chance at the one gun show for 500 bucks but I couldnt really afford to spend the cash on it at the time so let it go. Everyone I saw after that was 700-1100 bucks. My last cool gun was a done up Tikka Tactical with a Nightforce scope. Parted it out to buy my first sled. Had it out to 700m and very accurate. Also tried a 338 lapua from remington but didnt like the rifle. The ammo is ok but in a different rifle.

Smith and Wesson 1911pd. It is the commander length so the weight feels pretty good.

My Remington Sendaro 300 Ultra Mag 3/4" group at 100yds 1 1/2 at 200yds.
10.5# gun, doesn't kick as bad as some say but it does push you a little!
Went through about 9" of tree at 200yds and stuck into the next tree about 2 1/2".
Everything on the home quarter section is now in range from the yard.


looks like 6" grouping to me , 3 shots in 3/4" would be 3/4" grouping :eek:

Hmmmm..........I must be missing somethin cause those are 1" squares and it has 3 holes in it??????????

The tree was at 200 yds and actually has 8 holes in it, two shots each at 4 different knots. I think the tree is toast!

I have some ordinary ol hunting rifles, nothing special BUT can drop any animal for the deep freeze every hunting season. I have some buddies in Texas who have some crazy azz guns. I LOVE guns as well!

Fun as hell to shoot. Cycle em through too quick though and she don't like it. Never jams but does break.

Ya I have an older Squires Bingham .22 that doesn't like anything smaller than 40gr .22,. you can shoot 32 but it will jam if you cycle too fast.

I am looking at getting my daughter that Mossberg, and pick myself up a 10/22 and put a Nomad stock on it :)
