Honestly, my "safari" in the next 3-4 years will be in the U.P. for elk, mt. lion, and dogman defense systems. As you guys mention in Ep. 2 the "influencer" BS industry has been played out. The Sauer 100s? Holy shit, rabbit hole opening in the binos....might make a TX cull hunt if the timing is right....Day Ep 2 popped off I had just picked up the new Featherweight M70 in 264WM on my way to work, on Sundles recommend, it's not a friggin boring gun, AND I can eventually re-load for it and the 6.5PRC at the same time.....anyways....Schnabels...
Per Ep 2 context, IE; grabbed a Weatherby BlackHills edition in 300WM, have a 300WM ammo stash, but figured meh I've got a Cabela's card to burn round here somewhere and grabbed a box of the Federal 200gr top shelf shit to test out, and see if the Browning with Abolt-BOSS will still shoot straight. Lo and behold the "review" vids I find do NOT mention the tester's rifle barrel length, profile, twist, or even show how the fuckin ammo shoots for groups. So, THE market is a target rich environment and it appears the FE Society are all toting 1301s standing on the line for whatever flies into production next.
Holy shit, rich man/poor man; I found this Portugal made M70 online for $1100, I'll do a photo shoot thingy in my next weekend here coming up but wowsers; if you can't afford one, just find one in the gun shop and pull the bolt out for an eyeful. This one's 264WM, not sure if all the new M70 bolts are jeweled and like this but wow! Looking forward to Ep 3.........who is it?
