went up hunting in maine on the 22nd. stopped at kittery trading post and ordered my new stalking/stillhunting gun for next year...


after debating on picking the BAR safari ( which by the way felt so nice when i brought it to my shoulder felt like an extension of my arm ) but unfortunatly the rounds i could go by were rather less open than the BLR. since i already have a 308win and a 30-06sprg and that i really don't need a 7mm mag or 300win mag or a 25-06rem for stalking deer, no less up in maine.
the BLR fit nicly for quick shots. but not as good as the BAR. but i thought the 7mm-08rem would be a better round for what i wanted to do with it and in the case to. to put a VX-II in 2-7X33mm on it down the road.

so i ended up getting the BLR lightning in 7mm-08rem . hopfully it will be hear before next hunting season
