The world's greatest bolt gun turns 10 years old.

We did! Didn't have our normal ranch truck with the ammo tool box in the bed. So the lightest load we had was 69 gr which shot over 3MOA.

That isnt good...I know yall had a great time tho...due to work and other things its been awhile since Ive pulled a trigger. Sucks.

Yep. There's a bag of ammo dedicated to that gun in the Ranch Truck. We also forgot the good 6.5 CM (lapua brass) ammo, and the wind was ripping.. So I was irritated as f*@K for a good part of the shoot.

Here she is



I saw this box of 60 grain Vmax ammo in the vault and thought Perfect for the 788, look closely, I didn't



Bought that to test out my Bulgarian AK74, shot good out off that gun, LOL
I sprayed the 69 grainers all over the place, it was ugly.

Come on down or over and let’s shoot. Or if your ever in AZ. No eye teeth needed, we just like to send it.

I have a R700 in 223 that also shoots lights out and I love it. I grew up in Sierra Vista and now live in Michigan, so I am very jealous of you guys!!

I have a NIB, unfired A3G. I’ve been far too busy in life to take the time and stretch it’s legs.

I also bought an SPR action - should have bought two or three.

I initially thought/was told that FN would barrel that action for me but when I spoke to them they said it would be too labor intensive for them at that time.

I’ll get Mike Rock to put a 17-4 PH stainless steel barrel with a 1/10 twist (if he can locate the steel) or perhaps get a Carbon-fiber PROOF twisted on it. Not sure and my life circumstances are such that I am not in a position to do a lot of long range Precision shooting/training so maybe I’ll do nothing.

I adore the FN rifles and should have purchased a basic one after the A3G. I kick myself everything I look at it…

Mjoinir, did you ever get out and bang on that A3G? You made everyone jelly on that post.

The only thing that sucks with buying new guns is putting all the shit on them, Glass-Bipod-Level-Bedding job-Unicorn juice......

I keep telling myself I don't really need a .223 bolt action, but I know it's going to happen sooner or later. It just seems like it would be too much fun.

They really are worth owning. I have a Ruger Compact American Rifle and a CZ 527 Varmint. Both are very enjoyable to shoot and shoot well, the Ruger better than it should with its floppy stock and 2-7x scope (I have less than $500 in the whole package).
