Culvercreek hunt club Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 John. A heads up on that 7400. Dad's 7400 was a longer action since it was a 270 win but it kept clipping off chunks of the soft nosed bullets we were using and jamming every once in a while. We went to polymer tipped and both problems disappeared. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The magazine is feeding kinda funky, I was Going to take that apart and clean it and see what happens. It’s been sitting in a box since the early 2000s lol.

GreenDrake Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 I lost my father 7 years ago during deer season. He was 85 and climbed into his box blind the day before he went into the hospital. Its tough. It sucks. But it’s life. I have a couple dozen rifles but my boy uses my dads BAR 308 exclusively. He had the joy of sitting with my dad in his boxblind his last opening day. He has tagged4 wall hangers with that rifle since. God bless you and your family. That rifle WILL shoot straight!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UpStateRedNeck Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 Sorry to hear that WNY. Every year I get to hunt with my dad is a gift, hearing things like this just reinforces it. He's getting old enough now that I don't take it for granted. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otto Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 Very sorry to hear about your Dad’s passing. My father was not a hunter, but we spent a lot of time in the woods cutting firewood. I still enjoy using his old chain saw, axe and splitting maul. They are treasured tools that remind me of all that hard work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
