Off topic but...
Did have to do any work around the train wreck south of you?

Hope not, looks like a real mess

It is a mess. No- I didn't. Two of our officers have part time positions in that area and they spent allot of hours there the last few days.

One of them lives there and was evacuated. Still hasn't gotten to go back yet. Him and his dog , one uniform, and a couple pair of underwear basically.

Decided to keep it. I'll shoot 120s for a while. Maybe I'll rebarrel it eventually.

Put it in a Boyds stock. And I'm happy with it.

I'll shoot it when this wind dies down.

Shot a real nice 8 point in PA with the 7mm-08.

Picked up a factory youth stock for it too last week. I really like it.

Might cut the barrel to 20"

load up some 120 BT's or 120 grain hornady spire points, you will not be disapointed inn terminal performance on whitetails or black bears.

120 BTs are what I went with.

I think this rifle is going to Wyoming in the next few years for antelope and muley eventually.

The 7mm-08 has grown on me

I think this rifle will get the nod again this season. At least for the PA opener.

Gonna have my boy out too, might let him use it instead of the .350 legend.
