Howie,
Howdy, Glad you are having such good luck. Well i drove to Lubbock Tx.
And picked up a new in box Ruger # 1 in 257 Roberts, Then the next day a friend was raising money for a new gun so he sold me his T?C carbine in
6.5 JDJ with a SSK barrel, Man this thing is a tack driver, I've been trying for about seven years to get him to part with it.
I mounted a Burris 4 by 12 scope on the 257 roberts and haven't had a chance to take it out and try it yet.
I'm going to a gun show the week end of the 7th & 8th of Aug, Gona take about 18 rifles and a few pistols, Scopes and other stuff, Got a lot of extra
Dies and so forth, Need to clean out my loading shack so i can get into the door.
Well pard. looks like i'm about out of steam so i'll say Adios Amigo, Hasta Luego. Oh forgot,, i put a leupold 2/7 scope on the T / C......Joe.....c/ya
