    Couldn't help myself before XMAS and I had always wanted a 45-70 so picked this Henry up. Its a real beast to shoot! We have had a lot of turkeys down the back of the farm so managed to clean a few up with this ( overkill i know )

    Lockdown has provided an opportunity to relax and get back to some fun stuff. I’m lucky to have a range, lathe and barrels under the bench.
    Had these two out yesterday. Both R700 ti actions and McMillan A3 stocks. Short is 6.5 PRC, Hardy Carbon at 24 inches, and long is 7-300 wm, hardy at 27 inches.Name: 9F0153F7-A3B9-4F57-A7CA-7B92739111BF.jpeg Views: 854 Size: 145.8 KB
    Will get a bush pig done and a pic of a couple more up later. Cheers

    Lockdown has been a great opportunity to get onto some projects. Here is a Sako 75 .243 that I picked up cheap a few months back. The floor plate was worn with surface rust, the bolt looked like it had never been cleaned and the stock had been refinished in a semi-gloss poly for some unknown reason.
    Now I just need to get some new rings and I can mount the scope

    You are making me feel guilty for selling the blued Optilocks to another forum member.
    Welcome to Sako club.

    There's no better feeling then when you've restored a gun and it turns out mint. Nice job.

    Baikal double in 45/70

    I am actually impressed with the value this gun represents.Its certainly no London Gun but the quality has come a hell of a long way from the examples I handled in the states 15 years ago.

    With a bit of polishing and swapping the sights, this has the potential to be a great working Rifle.Name: 20200421_184942.jpg Views: 654 Size: 4.58 MB
