New moose rifle and Merry Christmas to me

[lackeyse]

A special thanks to Henry from Budget Shooter Supply for providing me with all of my reloading needs and Clay from Prophet River for providing the Talley light weight rings. I was given fast, curtiousy and excellent service from both of these businesses. I hope you enjoy my photos and I can't wait to get some ammo loaded and this rifle out to the range. Cheers and Merry Christmas to all!

Nice piece... JP.

I like it. I've been giving the 325WSM some thought lately. Handled a BLR in that chambering and i wasn't that impressed with the rifle. The cartridge looked very nice though.

Should be an excellent moose combo.

Make sure you get back to us with a range report!!

beauty looking set-up you have there

Yay, new rifle! I like the looks of the new model 70's. Maybe I should have one in my case too!

 

[jbmauser]

Very nice. It should work very well on moose.

Thanks guys! Just to let you know I'm not being selfish by buying a new rifle this time of year. My marriage went for a dump and my wife left. It's been a while now and so I thought I would treat myself to a new rifle lol. We get along now and I have joint/shared custody of my 2 1/2 yr old son. Things are looking up. I have no experience with the 325WSM but I am excited to try it out. Sorry for the rant.

Nice thing about rifles: you can sell them, trade them, buy them with minimum drama, have several at once and play with one after the other...

Nice rifle!

Merry Christmas.

 

[Johnn Peterson]

Nice, very nice!! Should be just what the Dr. ordered for Moose. Keep us posted.

Winchester is making a pretty sharp looking rifle these days!
Congrats!

Sorry to hear you've been having such a rough time lately, but it's good that things are looking up. I hope you enjoy your new moose rifle, I have to say that the current model 70's seem to be very nice, and the Zeiss makes for a good package. It looks like a combo that should last well enough for your son to use on a moose one day.


Merry Christmas!!

Congrats look forward to pics of you and your rifle with a dead moose!

Don't think I would have held out too long before buying a new rifle myself

 

[kamlooky]

Pretty decent salt for the wound you have there...............
Great job on the combo.
Let us know how it places the holes on the target.
Maybe a photo or two.
Cheers.

Nice, lucky you!

 

[Slooshark1]

Congrats! No more nagging and a new Winchester Model 70. Now that's what I call a win-win situation.

 

[blargon]

You're gonna get scope-eye...

Nice rifle/scope/mount combo. How does it feed? The last wsm in fwt I had did not feed good at all. With 3 in the mag the second cartridge never fed properly.
