I sold a couple I wasn't shooting much and am getting this pimped out one to keep my other Bison company.

That's pretty nice looking. It's a .504 isn't it?.You will have to let us know how it shoots. better yet bring it out and show us how it shoots?

Nice rifle flounder. Let us know how she shoots. As for the weather, man yesterday it was blowing like a muther. Could hardly walk a straight line. Fortunately for me, with the few extra pounds I put on over the winter I was able to keep both feet on the ground.

It is close to a whiteout out there right now. There is even a little thunder with the snow. We sure had a nice week last week and thankfully that settled the snow cover down.
You're right, the Bison is a .504. My other one is the rarer .540. I recently glass bedded that one and am very impressed with how it is shooting the 535 grain No Excuses.

What kind of powder do you shoot in your whites? I noticed that some people don't seem to like pyrodex p even though that is what Doc recommends. I have always used 777 but bought some pyrodex p to try.

I have used Pyrodex only once. Some people feel it is hard on your rifles even if you clean em up right away. I like the Goex better, I thought the Pyrodex fouled things up worse. I don't have any problem getting Goex locally in 2f or 3f. I would like to get some of the Swiss to try. Want to go together on an order sometime?

ps: I would rather use triple 7 than pyrodex. I think I am going to order a bunch of over powder cards from TOW to help stop leading.

I can't get Goex or Blackpowder around here. Only 777 ,pyrodex ,blackhorn or APP and i quit using APP 2 years ago.So I have only been shooting 777 and sometimes Blackhorn. Mostly 777.

I wouldn't mind. maybe if you make it out this spring we can order some and you could bring it?

I don't think the 777 was even out yet when doc was touting the Pyro. I think it works fine but I think the over powder cars are important witt 777 cuz it is so hot. I have really had good luck with Goex, if I am able to swing the trip I'll bring you some to try.
