Dad's deer rifle

I mentioned in a previous post that I inherited my father's guns recently. This past weekend I finally brought my favorite home. Dad's 264 Win. Mag. Pretty much none of my IRL friends are into guns so I'm going to brag about it here. This thing was always a nail driver but when I was in highschool, dad finally wore the barrel out of it (or wrecked due to lack of cleaning). For his birthday that year Mom and I bought him a stainless barrel. His best friend at the time was a gunsmith who replaced the barrel and bedded the stock. After that, this thing was unbelievable. Honestly, I'm not a good enough shot to justify it but even still, I'll hang on to this one until I'm dead.

Does anyone else have any experience with a 264? The few gun enthusiasts I've talked to have all been surprised when I tell them about this one.

Liberal gun ranges

I know it's a long shot but, I'm wondering if anyone can recommend a range in southern MN or northern IA (or SW WI). I recently inherited all of my father's guns and unfortunately, that comes with losing (well, selling) the farm that I have always shot at. All the local ranges I know of are owned by people I really don't want to give money too.

If you live in Washington or north Oregon, check out the PNWAL

Hey all, if you’re a liberal/leftist located in Washington (Seattle/Olympia/Tacoma or south Washington) or northern Oregon (Portland/Salem), check out the PNWAL.

I’ve been a member for some time and it’s a great group. Regular range days, lots of friendly and knowledgeable people. We’re always looking for new people who like to have fun and shoot some guns.

(Obligatory this is not a militia- just a group of people who advocate for gun rights for all and like to have range days together)
