Very nice shooter there. It looks like it will only get better. Also those are some nice looking rifles you have there.

Wabi I built that from scratch except for the barrel 30 years ago its killed more game than these inlines will ever be shot at and it has a Tung Nut oil finish so I dont even worry about scrathes.

gleason.chapman, they don't last here if they don't shoot good, but I have not run into many that needed more than a few adjustments to get them to shoot. As a more direct answer I dont have any idea what the new Triumph will end up with for a best load yet. the Omega will hold a group under 2 inches at 150 with 50/40-200gr SW,the System One will shoot 230 240 and 250 XTP with a max group sixe of 2 inches @ 100yd with the 50 cal barrel and the 54 barrel will shoot 300gr Widner 50 cal bullets into a ragged hole @100 and hold 4 inches @200.
The hawkens will all hold 3 inches with iron sights[ they might do better if I put a scope on them] I shoot PRB in them don't use conicals much. Lee

Do not get me into this one - Terry made me inventory my stuff the other day (she says for insurance purposes - which I wonder what she means by that) but any way it was not good - she even made me count the guns that @ my son-in-laws -> I kinda-sort-of gave them to him they shouldn'y count against me.

And her favorite saying... why? you can only shoot one of em....

oh well I can not win with her...

Amen. Sounds like your family know what it likes to shoot. That is great shooting with a Hawken. Chap Gleason

My homeowners makes me take out a special rider to the policy for my weapons and other collections. So every year I update the collection and send them a CD with a photo of each gun, and a full description of the rifle and its replacement value. Then I make an identical CD and that goes in the big safe deposit box at the bank. It is sure a pain, although I have become quite the local laugh with my agent when I walk in each year with my "update."

Hey, I like that idea,I was about to start printing pics for the insurance, I think I will try the CD its seems like it would be good to keep info on tools and household stuff like the big TV and the computerize sewing machine to. Lee

sabotloader, next time I see Terry, I am going to tell her she needs to inventory your scopes too! :D:D:D:D:D

Why do you think I have never introduced you to Annette?

AND, you can never win because she is smarter than you. I know how that works.

Dave, I don't hardly believe that your gun photos will fit on one CD.
