That's what I ordered...waiting on them to come in....hopefully they work out, as I worry about cheek weld with the higher rings.

Thanks,

I have an m77 tan safety 30-06....killed my first buck with it and will never part with it. It's in a cheap ramline stock that I despise, one day I'll change that.

It's so hard to choose...I rarely shoot it, but my first gun was an old single shot 22 that belonged to my great grandfather and subsequently my grandfather...and is now mine...it means a lot to me

Yesterday I hit two walmarts during my travels. I was trying to find sinkers for slugging. Can you believe that they only carry steel egg sinkers?!?!? What is the world coming to? They did have...
