I like it... hope you do too...
« on: June 22, 2012, 12:15:23 PM »
Finally a 30-30 the way I want it.  Ejector barrel, Leupy M8 4X compact, Numrich mount, Warne QD rings, TCA rear sight, BC carbine wood.  Life is good.  Now I gotta make time to shoot it. 


Think as if you LIFE depends on it... IT does..!  Be Well...

Love it. I hope Brian see's your post.  That is exactly what H&R should offer.
They could call it " The Homesteader"

It looks great.  I like the BC wood on light recoilers.  My Maxi and .32-20 are set up that way.  Enjoy.

Jon, "The Homesteader" would be a perfect name for it.

Great looking rig , Wiz.
Is that Numrich mount a repeatable zero takedown?

is that just a standard tca rear dovetail sight, i love the look of it, one of those may convince me to make my topper 158 open sights again.

Looks real sharp!  I just had a 22 Hornet barrel fit to my BC and am still figuring out what I want to do for sights - you sure have given me an idea or two... It just has the factory Williams sight right now.

Thanks for complements.  Sorry for bad camera.

Bug bit me hard 2 years ago when my Maxi barrel locked up best on my BC carbine receiver.  Felt right, balanced well, and forend looks just 'better' with 22" barrel.  Just kept finding I liked to shoot it more because if fit so well.

Rear sight [fleabay] supposedly for TC muzzleloader, buckhorn because I can see it sharper.  I can see it over the mount also, and note the 'ears' of the scope rail 'kinda' frame and help center the rear sight, just fyi...

Was initially reluctant to do this, because the "5's" might resent a "0", but they seem to like having another sister.  But they wanted to model for the camera too, so here they are, my other ladies in their best: 45-70 W&H, 357 Maxi, 25-06.
