[skeet]

I was doing a gun show down in Gillette Wy this weekend. Saw a sign for a yard sale.. Just hadda go. Guy and gal had 4 guns there. Couple I wasn't interested in but He had a Remington 870 Standard weight 20 ga skeet gun on the table for 250 bucks. Asked if he would take 175 ...but no go...but he said 180 ...so I had to do it. Not in bad condition either. The other I was interested in was a Swede mauser..long bbl in pretty good shape..but it got sold while I was making a deal on the Remmy. Asking on it was 150 bucks. Oh and got a Lyman Orange crusher press used but in the box. Even had the instructions and papers with it for a pretty fair price. Oh well I'm a sucker for reloaders

While at the gun show I bought a neat Ruger 77 in 257 Ackley improved.. got 100 empty fire formed cases..80 rounds of loaded ammo(with data for 'em but I'll still check 'em) dies and two boxes of Nosler Ballistic tips. Oh and the rifle has a 2x7 Burris on it. Price was ok too...300 bucks but I traded the guy a S&W 22A and 100 dollars. Glad to get rid of the 22A. 4 other dealers tried talking me out of it but I gotta try it out 'fore I sell it. Heck I think the dies are 60 bucks or so.

And for the old guys here on the board..I have a custom built rifle in 270 Win... the action is a wild one and one not many see.. It is built on a Newton action. The scope mount that is on it is an oldie too. Now I have to remember how to remove the bolt...oh Double set triggers on it.
