All joking aside, that's a damned good quality picture!

Yeah.......but Gibson makes guitars. :ugh:

Nope. Everything I've got from the has come at lightning speed, well packed, and 100% correct.

At least he didn't post the "money shot". :lol:

Unless you have the knowledge and machinery to index and headspace a barrel, you will likely need to employ someone else to install it for you. I expect you can either buy a barrel for most any action suitable for a 22 hornet. If not, you other option would be to buy .223 rifled blank, and have a gunsmith finish it, assuming you aren't able to do it yourself.   There are several choices for donor rifles to get the action. I don't know your budget, but I'm not expecting this to be an inexpensive project.   https://savagearms.zendesk.com/entries/23574706-Does-Savage-have-a-custom-shop- I would suggest you contact Savage arms and see if they'd make you a barreled action to your specs.

You can't top that! Congratulations. :up: :up:

For many reasons, I do not believe that selling junk is a good long term business model.

I've even put a couple in sideways. Now that takes some doing.

I've done it, but catch it before inserting powder and primer. If a company makes millions of something, there are bound to be a problem or three.

My wife only thought I have a lot of guns. I need to show her this report.

The LCR is ugly! The K frame Smith and Wesson doesn't suffer this malady.     Full power 357 loads in a K frame are a handful. I prefer a 27 or 28 for shooting, but a 19 sure carries a lot better.

My wife and I visited the Cragfont and the Wynnewood estates today, and it brought to mind a local legend I doubt many have heard of.          http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=3&ved=0CCsQFjAC&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.awritesmart.com%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2012%2F10%2FBigfootSpencer.pdf&ei=79iEVLDENsOkgwS18YLoBQ&usg=AFQjCNGFDfDBj4INIv0gldoQBxzPIOgZrw&bvm=bv.80642063,d.eXY

You must have a lot of free time on your hands. :shake:

Well said. It's kind of like an extended family here. :up: :up:

We're here for you Dave!

If you want to go cheap, there's nothing wrong with Anderson lowers. They are made in Kentucky.   If you want top of the line, click on the cmttac.com  advertisement at the top of the forum page. They're made here in Tennessee, and are top shelf.

That sucks, and he'd have done well to have handled it better. However, you had a non working gun when you walked in, and a working gun when you left. You also received an education. It really isn't as bad as it seems.   I once buggered the knurling on an ejector rod; not knowing it was left hand threaded. My lesson cost me as did yours.

If you follow a jerk like that, trouble will surely not be far behind you. I'd never heard of him and wish I could still say the same.

Mine always seemed to get a sufficient cleaning when I cleaned the bore.

Don't ask me how I know. :shake:

I haven't, but do own a variety of rifles in 250-3000 as well as 257 Roberts. As they are both 3000 fps rounds with an 87 grain projectile, it sure sounds like a great idea to me!   If you find a 250-3000 or 257 Roberts that isn't accurate, somebody has likely screwed with it.   They are perfect for whitetails and coyotes.   The only downside I see is that here, I would fear a round of it would somehow find it's way into a 556 chamber.   I'll keep my deer rifles with levers or bolts.

My dog has brought home a couple of chickens in the past. I have no idea where they came from. I've fed my dogs chicken bones forever, and no ill effects so far.

I have the Lee scale, and Ohaus Beam scale, and one of the Frankford arsenal scales. All three are accurate enough for most reloading chores. I find myself using the Frankford Arsenal digital scale the most, because it's easy to set up and fast to use. Although cheaply made, the Lee scale is quite accurate and fairly easy to use. Sometimes I like to check one against the other just for my own piece of mind. That's where the balance beam scale comes in handy.   You can put the Frankford Arsenal scale in your shirt pocket and take it somewhere with you. It weighs in grains, grams, and ounces. You can use it for more than just reloading.

I wish I had the ability to convey my thoughts as well as he did.

I believe pulling the damned trigger is considerably faster....and easier! :shake: :shrug:
