    30mm

    Do I recall correctly that there's enough recoil that firing the 30 slows the Warthog significantly on a long burst?

    Cricket scope rings

    Agreed, that's the simplest route. Redfield 22 rings Truglow 22 rings Lots of rifles that have some sort of open sights also have a comb that's a bit low for a scope, it's not a difficult or expensive fix. Mount the scope. Have her look through the scope. Compare the cheek weld to the...

    First Deer

    Spotted a doe laying between a gap in 2 round bales. I got all the way to the bales, peeked around the corner and she bolted. I missed the 1st shot @ less than 10yds. Killed her w/the 2nd @ 50-75yds. Running right to left. Shooting a Rem 700ADL Carbine in 243, Weaver 1.5-4.5 TV-View scope...

    Ruger Mark III

    If it's any of the "bulk box" ammo, I'd blame the ammo.

    Ticks

    So you're saying ~.5oz/Gal = bottle-strength Perm spray and you can make ~64 gal of bottle-strength spray for $47 worth of Perm concentrate?

    .357 VS 10mm

    Not a comparison, but some recent and pertinent 10MM real-world data. You can save yourself a lot of time and minutiae by only reading the posts from the OP in the thread: Real World 10MM in use

    OK, I'll ask. What precisely is a "FADS".

    Vanguard 257 Weatherby Magnum

    H1000 should work, especially if you already have it, as right now Magnum seems to be out of stock. I did neck-size only, then just partial neck sizing for a while. I'm back to the simplicity and simply easy feeding of a slight shoulder bump. I like the very small and mobile expander ball of...

    Look what the AMT Lighting makes 22LR ammo capable of.

    Vanguard 257 Weatherby Magnum

    .425BC @ 3600+ w/manageable recoil is a pretty darned good hunting package. I settled in on Ramshot Magnum powder back in '08 and haven't tried anything else since. Stuff meters slicker than snot through a Culver style powder measure and gives excellent ES/SD, velocity, and accuracy. 257 Dies...

    Vanguard 257 Weatherby Magnum

    I'm a big fan of mono-metal projectiles @ 257Wby type speeds on big-game. I don't like "splashy" projectiles for big game, especially not @ 257 Wby velocity. Pretty much everything with a lead core is "splashy" @ 257Wby velocity. There's newer projectiles available than when I initially...

    Vanguard 257 Weatherby Magnum

    Vanguard will be Japanese 2-lug. Very similar to a 700 w/an M-16 style extractor and an integral recoil lug rather that pinning or sandwiching one.

    Velocitor/Stinger/Interceptor

    I’ve got a Rem 541S and a couple of 582’s that shoot a whole bunch better with that same Win Power-Point ammo in the pic above. What I was getting @ w/the pic is that a standard weight 10/22 clone shoots pretty darned good w/that ammo. Now, are you going to make this about target ammo or is it...

    Vanguard 257 Weatherby Magnum

    Vanguard is generally a very accurate rifle, it’s the same as the Howa 1500. You’ve already mentioned the stock. I’d swap out the trigger too. Other than those 2 things, it should be ready to go. They use the same scope bases as a 700 so there’s about a billion good choices to suit your...

    Velocitor/Stinger/Interceptor

    Power-Point, 10 shots @ 50yds. Stock AMT 25/22 action/bbl/stock, Timney trigger. The AMT 25/22 is an early 1980’s all Stainless (action and bbl) version of the 10/22 before Ruger made their own Stainless 10/22.
