    West coast salmon recovery

    When I was in college, mid 70s, my roommate and I made a $100.00 a day taking debrie out of the streams. Now they are paying you to put it back in. Gotta love capitalism. Are your trucks running North cascades or going over I 90?

    Vertical shot string

    Before you go slapping JB weld around and gouging wood try a very slow fire test; take a 10 minute break between shots. When I did it I simply set a timer, cleaned the rifle squeaky clean and waited. Even under warm conditions that was enough time to allow me to closely mimic a cold bore shot...

    Vertical shot string

    Very common issue with #1s. Dealt with it with my 257 Roberts, 275 Rigby and the 300 H&h. Free floating the barrel, bedding the spring hanger as well as bedding the interface between the fore end and the receiver helped significantly I thought I had done a pretty good of that. P ham did it...

    Scope mounts for Ruger#1

    I really like the 1.5x5 on a #1 just looks and feels so much more balanced. I’ve got one on my 375, seems perfect. I might try to convince Santa to bring me a couple of those.

    Scope mounts for Ruger#1

    Couple photos with the scope mounted with my 275 next to it. Straight edge shows alignment of the traditional mounts. Scope on the 300 HH is a vx5 3x15x44 so it’s a 30 mm. Scope on the 275 vx3hd 3.5x10. Lining things up the front slot on Pham rail aligns with the traditional location of Rugers...

    Scope mounts for Ruger#1

    The Ruger offset Ring will give you an inch, I’ll be sending Pham my 275 Rigby and my 257roberts for his mount. I have vx 3s on both of those with the rear ring right up against the tower. I’ll get some pics in just a bit.

    Sunday Pic of the Day

    Hiking the Minam, from its confluence with the Wallowa to Reds Horse Ranch, to Moss Springs. Happy #66. 32 miles; nearly 4000 foot of elevation gain, lots of bear sign, little elk sign.

    Scope mounts for Ruger#1

    P-Ham just fixed up my number one, 300 H&H with his mount, it's outstanding. I actually think I got his first prototype.

    I need shotgun advice

    My Benelli M2 is a south paw gun. I shot right handed guns for about 40 years before I bought this LH Benelli. Right side ejection never bothered me but the awkward working the safety did. I’ve been told the safety can be switched for a left handed on the M2. I never figured that out. You’ll be...
