Wow nice find! I bet you were glad to make the trade to get something you really wanted!
Gun show find
There was a Gun show in Duluth, MN this weekend and I had a table where I was trying to sell off some of my older stuff. The main gun I wanted to sell was a 700 VLS in 22-250. I bought it in 2006 and have never really liked it. Well, tow days of sitting and no takers so during a lull in the non action I walked around looking at other peoples stuff. I found a 700 Remington .243 with a trued action, Shillen 28inch barrel, muzzle break, 2oz trigger and Bench rest stock. The guy wanted 850.00 for it and we ended up making a trade. I threw in some ammo and a Tasco scope and he was happy. I was thrilled. My buddy was pissed that he didn't find it first.
I have a 6.5-20X Leupold in long range (20MOA) mounts to go on top. This should be just the thing for those 1000 yard Prairie Dogs.

Spent the day restocking and installing a scope. Had the 6.5-20 Leupold off my 22-250 to install and a old Remington 40X stock. I had to make a single shot follower for it since it had none. Going to be 40 below windchill tomorrow so I'll probably not shoot it for a while

Won't be any Range Reports for a few weeks. Global Warming has reard it's ugly head and dumped a bit of snow on the range. With that, the temps have crawled into the minus zero range and the wind chill this morning is around 40 below.Quick said:
