The 'plans' are in motion for my next rifle. I've decided on getting a 9.3x62 and at the gun show in Duncan this passed weekend, the ball started rolling. I happened on a package deal of 200 bullets, 285grSP. a new three die set of RCBS dies, one of which is a neck sizer and, 100 new unprimed Lapua brass. Next on the agenda, see what different brands are available in a Bavarian/Mannlicher style carbine.
All the seller would accept was EMT and I'm not involved in any electronic banking. Oh well, not ment to be I guess, so, as we speak, I'm on the hunt to see what's available, in a full stock design.
That was my '1st kick at the cat'. I was dealing with a guy from the southern BC interior. We got down to the 'vinegar strokes' on the rifle, ammo and price but when I offered payment via a certified cheque, the deal fell through.
Appreciate the offer. While Why not? was down visiting on the island, he offered to do the same. When he contacted the buyer, 'apparently' the deal had passed on to someone waiting in the wings when the payment deal I offered was rejected. There will be other opportunities I'm sure.
Might help explain why I've purchased a couple of rifles from him. We, with a number of local CGNers, had a good lunch and chat session when he was here. Look forward to the next.
I promise to I'll put you back on the list .
Cross a bit of water boy 'o' to NFL and some of the highest Moose densities, and resulting steaks, anywhere.
