Gary brought a neat gun to HHC. It was a .357 mag he had rechambered to .357 Max. and made it shiny with scratching all over it. It was well Coon fingered in TN. I wanted it bad but blew all my crazy money just to get to HHC that year. I missed it.

In my late trading I found this at a Cabelas in KS. I even got to use up my Cabelas card points on it! Merry Christmas! These are literally hand made little gems. Outstanding trigger pulls and accuracy. The only thing I don’t like about them (I think) is they have spring plunger extractors? A cam type is light years better, the TC has a cam extractor you know. But still they were bucket list guns for me to try. Anytime you can get one under $750 you stole it. Usually they run just into four figures. They can take a scope too. Not sure if it’s tapped under that big rear sight. It needs a compact pistol scope for sure.

Nobody in Kansas City knew just exactly what a 7mm International Rimmed was and Wal-mart didn’t stock ammo. So I swooped in. But you’re probably ahead of me and my plan. Ammo for me with dies I can scrounge is easy peezy.

I’ve always thought the rakish lines distracted the more industrial hints of construction. I think they are pretty!

I love scrounging up strange stuff to share with Misfits at HHC or with Doug, maybe even Jim at one of the shoots. It’s really a blessing to me.

How goofy do you think a 10" 7mm GNR would be? - WB, 2020-12-21, 08:45
- IMO , No, but you could get 2200 fps probably. - Sean Harper, 2020-12-21, 10:35
