hear is a picture of me and my 270 it is a budget grade Remington model 710 this gun shoots wevery well for a 349.00 rifle i left the original optics on it the trigger came from the factory at a crisp 3.5 lbs the gun shoots consstant 3/4 to an inch at 100 for 3 shots, the gun is ugly but feels real godd to me it has a detachable mag this is my second one i also have a 30-06 in the same model this rifle has some very good memories and i do not have to worry about tearing up a 1,000 gun hunting pigs no problems at all

Nothing ugly about it from what I can tell (gun that is!!! :lol: ). Ugly is as ugly does. Sounds like this gun is perfect pig medicine, and that is beautiful in my book.

May your woods be filled with grunting Suidae until the sweet music of that rifle chimes in!

As of 5:00 pm 6/29, we have had 2+ inches today so far with more on the way. Yesterday I dumped 0.8" and the day before an even inch out of my rain guage. Lotsa folks further west and north got plenty more than we did. It's going to be a phenomenal wild game year, I can't remember the last time it has rained so regularly from February through July 1. Need to go cut some mesquite barbeque wood and can't find a dry day to do it. The weather folks say we'll get a break this weekend.

Wet and cool as it is, hogs ought to be moving more in the daylight hours as well as at night. God knows they've got perfect rooting conditions. Oughta be getting fat by the time it dries out enough to go hunting.
