I Had Too

We were back out in the area today so stopped in Frank's again. While that Remington 700 was still there, and I was tempted, I couldn't drop over a grand on a rifle. But, this did come home with me. Savage Axis in .270, walnut and blued steel. I've wanted a good old fashioned wood stocked rifle again for a long time, so while I'll be kicking myself for 6-7 months while I pay it off I'm happy to have some class back in the safe.

Thanks, fellas. My .25-06 is an Axis Stainless with a synthetic stock, it shoots great and it is pretty light to carry around.

 

This might be more of a safe queen overall. I figured I wanted the wood stock so I might as well get it done now before the laws to buy a new gun get changed here. Just don't trust the snake-in-the-grass leaders we have in NY at all now. 

 

Probably be a few weeks before I get her to the range and dialed in.

I can't  bring myself to buy a new gun again. I would find a used one and get it for as cheap as possible  and then take the stock off they come in and go to stockys and put a good stock on it. Lol

Used are almost the same price as new.

I have some great 270 handloaded ammo. Let me know if you are interested. 

What grain are you using for the bullet grampy? I used to run 150 but went 130 this time around. Hornady boxed stuff. Feel free to shoot me a PM, text, or even call.

We are using 140 gr. SST's and I need to restock those. But I do have a bunch of 130 gr. SST's.

I can easily make you up a box or so. We can barter! You have alot of fancy knives!

Will be in touch.
