    Firearms appraisals for insurance?

    Regarding claims experience, as I have said, I am a long-time SF customer. Whether that helps my experience or not, I cannot say. Over the years, I have had claims for water damage, hail damaged roof, several fender-benders and a two totaled vehicles. Each claim was handled promptly...

    Firearms appraisals for insurance?

    To follow up on my post of last night, when I listed a gun on my spreadsheet, each addition got a separate line. Each gun and its additions were given the same number but all of the additions were listed separately. So a gun with no additions had just one line in the spreadsheet. Contast my...

    Firearms appraisals for insurance?

    Hello, I just finished insuring my firearms through State Farm. The worst part of the process was inventorying, documenting and coming up with replacement values. That process took me four days. When the agent saw what I had he said it would be easy and that underwriting would be almost...

    Christensen Arms Mesa

    MM13, sorry your experience has been negative. So far, I am happy, very happy with the purchase. It is light, looks great, came with features (limbsaver buttons and upgraded trigger) that I would have added to the other rifles I was considering. The build quality on mine is excellent...

    Christensen Arms Mesa

    I spoke with support at Christensen today on adjusting the trigger pull. They were very friendly and upfront on their concern on customers adjusting triggers. They had a customer or two or three who adjusted the trigger so light the gun(s) were unsafe. They have no problem with me adjusting...

    Have you purchased anything gun related in the last three days?

    I ordered a Wheeler trigger pull weight gauge from Midway today. Should be here on Thursday. I have a new rifle to adjust the trigger pull on.

    Christensen Arms Mesa

    I put 14 rounds down range today. Overall, I really like this rifle. It is so new and I haven’t shot much in the last year (so my skills are rusty) that I did not get extreme accuracy out of it but I am convinced it is there. With a little trigger tweaking, more practice and more breakin, I...

    Forbidden Pepper Kernels

    What am I missing? Does PWS make a rifle in 6.5 Creedmoor? What I saw on their website was .223 Wilde, 300 blackout and 7.62x39. Those cases are stamped 6.5 Creedmoor.

    Youi are right on the practice. Shot placement is most important. And I will also be practicing on a quick follow up shot. 350 yards is my mental max with this round. Unless I find a better cartridge I will be firing a Hornady 143 gr ELX Precision Hunter. Practice will be expense at a $1.60...

    That is good advice. Maybe I can run a GoPro to record it some. It will only mean something to me, but what the heck.

    The barrel is Cerakote. I believe they call the color tungsten. Thanks for the compliment. I am liking more each time I look at it.

    Optic is a Leupold VX3i 3.5 - 10 x 40 with Leupold low rings and mount. Here’s hoping that to whitetail, elk, antelope and black bear it is an EBR.

    Well, it is mine and home now. It is raining outside so this picture will have to do for now.

    Christensen Arms Mesa

    Thank you all. Researching more has yielded about what I expected and Steve and others said. Some love them, some hate them (although I do wonder how the hater didn't notice his claimed problem before he left the store.). The lover was a couple of long distance shooters from longrangeonly...

    Christensen Arms Mesa

    I turn 65 in a couple of weeks and my sweet wife wants to get me something special. (Usually we keep birthdays fairly inexpensive.). I mentioned a new hunting rifle and said I already had $700 from selling one rifle and that I had a couple of others that I was thinking of selling to cover the...

    Some new shooters

    Hi guys, It has been a while since I last visited this site and posted. Life just got insanely busy and other things took priority. But Saturday's event was so good that I thought I should share. My youngest, Rob - now 21, regularly asks if we can take several of his friends to shoot at our...

    Missouri hunters where did this Elk come from?

    As I understand it, it isn't known where that particular herd originated. Missouri has a herd about 200 miles away in the southeast portion of the state. There is apparently a herd on private property west of Columbia but I get the impression they are not free ranging. There is a small herd...

    Preparing for a first elk hunt

    The following is a little long but thought I should share the hunt experience. (I need to work on the pics, get them sized and post some of the better ones.) Three of us, Ray (my nephew), Mike (another first time elk hunter) and myself left Kansas City, MO at 5 am on a Saturday morning. We...

    Preparing for a first elk hunt

    A very little about the trip and the how well my prep did or did not work out. The highlight of the trip was hunting with my nephew. Watching his mannerisms I felt like I was watching my brother and to some extent my dad. I felt like I was hunting with my brother for the very first time...
