Thanks for the suggestions. I agree it is not truly a 'rare' gun even though there are only 500 of them out there. I am seeking selling advice because I will need to cast a wide net to sell at a fair price. I think I will put it up on gunbroker with a safe reserve price.
BTW, here's the...
I am selling a John Ross edition S&W 500. I have it listed locally but I may have better luck connecting to an interested buyer by reaching out wider.
Any recommendations on where to advertise?
It's really hard to beat a T3x superlight, especially when the factory is right down the road. If you do find a reliable, accurate, and noticeably lighter rifle, it won't be under $1k. If the Tikka doesn't quite do it for you, the Barrett Fieldcraft is the next step in my mind, at around $1.5k.
Regardless, if it's a light GP100 in 45 colt, it won't be as strong as a redhawk and able to take magnum like pressures; or if it will be as strong at a redhawk, it'll pretty much weight as much. So if it's just a plain jane light 45 colt revolver you're looking for, there are other...
My 69 would have tough extraction from 300 gr xtp and 16.8 gr of 2400. Hornady's book max is 17.1. Maybe that's representative, maybe not. I see the 69 more capable than the 329 when it comes to handling high pressure but probably not as well as the N frames and definitely not as robust as a...
I'm familiar with buying online and having it sent to a local FFL, but I am curious if I can have it sent directly from the seller to the gunsmith then to my FFL. What are the requirements?
I am in Alaska and wish to have a handgun mag-na-ported before it coming up north to hopefully save on...
For some background, I've grown up in relatively safe societal areas and never experienced a situation where I wish I had a defensive firearm. I also run a lot in the Chugach State Park in Alaska where I've come into 20 or so yards of bears, and never felt like they were threatening. Perhaps...
Yet another argument based on your assumption that factory ammo won't continue. Unless you're privy to Hornady's books, your guess is as good as mine.
But either way, I'm set up well with reloading components, along with many others.
They called their rifle the Alaskan, and now there's the Guide Gun. Both in stainless with synthetic then laminate, respectively. Savage, Mossberg, and Howa rifles also in stainless/synthetic. You'd be hard pressed to find a more ideal do-it-all rifle/cartridge configuration in coastal Alaska...
You're putting the 375 Ruger's purpose into a narrow view and assuming ammo won't be manufactured in another 1-2 years. ANY cartridge, according to that mindset, will fail. Who said the 375 Ruger was only meant as a safari rifle? It's one of the few 375 rifles that are stainless, they're the...
In regards to the 375 Ruger vs 375 H&H, there's probably no better example of the answer depending on non-cartridge differences. Both are essentially the same performance.
The big difference is how you'll get your ammo and what kind of rifle you prefer. If you're headed to Africa, the extra...
The choice boils down to if you prefer the rifles that are chambered for the 375 Ruger and ammo availability. The 375 Ruger offers 375 H&H ballistics from a rifle that is about 40" long overall and are well under $1000 since their actions are the same as the popular chamberings. And some folks...
A 338-06 will send a 225 grain bullet 250 ft/s faster, and with a much better BC, than a 30-06 will send a 220 grain bullet. Or, it will send about 30-50 grains more of bullet at the same speed. How is that exactly a step down in performance?
And the 35 Whelen's performance on large game...
The 6.8 caught on because it was the most powerful, reasonably accessible ammo, for a light modern sporting rifle. And now having bullets designed exactly for it, it'll definitely stick around and perhaps even find its way into more US military applications.
But, IMO, what will limit its...
