• Hey All! Lately there has been more and more scammers on the forum board. They register and replies to members requests for guns and/or parts or other things. The reply contains a gmail or hotmail address or similar ”anonymous” email addresses which they want you to reply to. DO NOT ANSWER ANY STRANGE MESSAGES! They often state something like this: ”Hello! Saw your post about purchasing a stock for a Safari. KnuckleheadBob has one. Email him at: [email protected]” If you receive any strange messages: Check the status of whoever message you. If they have no posts and signed up the same day or very recently, stay away. Same goes for other members they might refer to. Check them too and if they are long standing members, PM them and ask if the message is legit. Most likely it’s not. Then use the report function in each message or post so I can kick them out! Beware of anything that might seem fishy! And again, for all of you who registered your personal name as username, please contact me so I can change it to a more anonymous username. You’d be surprised of how much one can find out about a person from just a username on a forum such ad our! All the best! And be safe! Jim

    I don't think 1 inch tube diameter will help either .the way the shells eject , even the highest mount will not help it. My gun has good ejection but it scratches the scope. I don't mind scratching my gun in the field(that's why I bought synthetic stock) but it bothers me that a $1 shell is...

    i did not know boresnake could damage the rifle. i have a tipton rod,bore guide and vise. i did not use it because i did not want to carry it to the range. i will try not to use boresnake in future. Thanks Paul!

    i assumed Sako ammunition will work best in sako rifle and bought 8 boxes. now i am unhappy with the 3 inch group at 100 yards and feel i should have bought 8 different types of ammunition instead.

    thankyou for the suggestions gentlemen. But I am looking for more specific anwers like: 180 grain interlock SP american whitetail by Hornady. the whole purpose of me contacting this forum is to remove as much guess work as possible, as i dont get to go to the range that often. thanks again.
