Thanks leader. I bought from CrossRoads in halls. This is going to be a experience for me. I have never owned a left hand rifle or shot gun. I have always made do with right hand bolts, pumps,lever actions or simis. looking forward to trying her out.

I cant tell if it has a drop out mag or not? the only reason I would buy another bolt gun in a caliber I already have it to get rid of the blind mags,I hate them as it wears the bullets out loading/unloading,got to looking at the 100g Winchesters I was shooting in my 243 years ago and the tips were getting layed over in the feed ramp,switched to federals and problem solved ,I bet its going to be a shooter

shoot it ??? Uh wont that wear the new off it. It`s a gonna have to behave it`s self weather wise before I take her out. probably get a range permit at Norris. Ain`t bought any ammo yet. Thought about it but couldn`t remember what you were braggin on. Ya, know`s them 10000000 grain Booby tailed billion mile a second federal bullets. Or something like that. Iffin they made by our Fedrul guvmunt I ain`t a gonna be too trustin of em. When it comes to ballistic statistics I am a complete dummy. I admit it. I get confused and lost just trying wrap my mind around all that confusion. I`m sorry but you might as well be talking that Allah Snack Bar language to me.

Any way I am thinkin that I take them bullets a part and pour the powder into the barrel and then push in the bullet. Uh. where did they hide the ram rod. Oh an the breach plug slides back. you just lift this little handle and slide it back and then you can push it back forward. I aint figured out what lil black plastic box is for unless it`s to catch the powder an bullet when you slide the breach plug back. Oh an I aint figured out whar to put the primer cap.

Yep, This new fangeled rifle is gonna be a lot of fun to figure out. Might have to fetch out my readin glasses and read the struction book. Nah, that`s too much bother.
