The rings are Tally QD I had the colored with the rest of the metal. I got the gun within a couple of days of going west and had every intention of taking it. I had several test loads worked up and was off to the range. My first shots were at 25 yards just to check the bore sight. It was on and adjusted for elevation and windage. When I went to get the test loads the whole box fell on the ground. I had 20 rounds scattered and didn't have a clue as to what was what. Three rounds stayed in the box. 69grains of Reloader 19 and 165 gr Sierra BTSP. These cut holes at 25 yards. It was a beginning but when I got home I had no more powder The gun didn't make Wyoming but that load is under an inch at 100 yards. After deer season is over I'm going to try some 200 grain Accubonds.
I have another gun built of the number 1 action and a Winchester High Wall that are case colored as well.

Brett I really hope nothing is next. I have a pre 64 M70 SG 300 H&H that could go down the road if something comes up but I've had a custom rifle done every year for the last 5-6 years and don't have the time to use what I have. I need to do more hunting and less building/buying. Last I looked there are 40 rifles capable of killing a deer and I use even the big guns like the 375's, 416, 405 Win, 450/400 on deer. Just load them appropriately. I'm looking into a Texas hunt for 2022. Should be all healed up by then
