    Sounds fantastic. I would only want to climb up there once and then stay rather than go up every day.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Yeah I would only survive one trip too. That was my plan for this week but Mrs put that to rest.
    Helo is the other option. Adventure either way. It's only a lazy 1700m up over about 4km latitude.

    The bolt face might not even need replacing. I've seen the top bolt face of our top shooter at the NRA and he has a perfect ring from so many primer blow outs and it shoots awesome.

    Just clean it up and see how it functions and shoots, was still shooting well last time if I remember correctly.

    Yes it was shooting OK. The ejector is well and truly rooted though.

    Savage bolts are pretty easy to change bits around on.

    Meaning yours is half as steep?
    But to be fair my penis is pretty flaccid in those kind of scenarios. Give me a downhill though and I'll have a raging hard on
