Welcome aboard PlushH....
Hand around here with this bunch and you will develope some (some say) bad habits, but we know better.  You will not find a better bunch of guys to hang around with.  Always wish I could have gone to Alaska, but too late now, am too old and tired.  You have any questions at all, ask them here, no question is dumb, just some of the answeres  :eek: Anyway, nice outfit you have there, enjoy it and hangin out.  :D

Howdy PlushHunter. :D   Does your mom know you have that 'black gun'?  :eek: Just kidding. :wink:   Now you need to go bust some 'yotes and P-dogs.  Speaking of P-dogs, have you seen the thread about the forum P-dog hunt?

I love my 308 it is very accurate, MOA or better, with a handload I have been using.  I began enjoying it even more when a friend of mine could not get his Howa heavy barrel to shoot as well as my Handi.
