I got to shoot Conundrum's new wheel gun. Holy butter nuts!
Thanks for all the opinions on off site storage for my fathers guns. I called 2 ranges and 4 shops in the area and no one offers this service. One shop recommended I simply pawn them and pay the monthly float and if he ever needs them he can pay to get them out of hock. Not a terrible idea but I suspect that after his initial outrage, my father will likely be willing to sell his firearms.
I wouldn't pawn them.
Could you get a safe, throw a blanket over it and rent a spot in somebodies garage or office or whatever?
My driver was a door gunner in Afghanistan. He freaks out every couple days, we got him a service dog and that helped. Women in burqa's send him off, they called them penguins because they looked like penguins when they walk with artillery shells on them under the burqa's. He doesn't get to see the video's.
Hey, I'm selling a scope I was going to put on a rifle. Might not fit what you're looking for and might stretch your budget but would be a cool setup on your Tikka. I've got a Zeiss Conquest V4 6x24x50, Vortex Pro Series 30 mm rings, and a Mountain Tactical 0 moa rail for Tikka T3s. None have been used yet other than setting up.

$800 shipped.
At 87 - will he (in new FL digs) realistically still use? If so - God bless him. I take it you are not close to his new loc?
If couloirman isn’t interested I just might be your huckleberry. That would fit nicely on top of my new 300 WM

Awesome let me know. You are Boise right? I will be there in May visiting our office there so I could even save you some shipping hassle.

Correct. And I’d buy you a beer.
Now you are talking, I happen to like beer!

Got word my x-bolt will be shipping 4/25. Ordered a 20moa pic rail with bubble installed, now, debating what rings to get. I can't really make heads or tails of the options out there, I know I want them to be fairly light, and no stress on alignment. 30mm tube 3-15x42mm Razor LHT going on there. What I'd really like is someone to just say "buy these" with a link and I'd be on my way. Lots of opinions, etc. Looking at mid height as my buddy may have a set of lows he will sell me with the scope, that way I can maximize fit.
The last three sets I've used on a rail were Zeiss Precision (bubble integrated and you probably don't need two levels), Vortex Pro and Vortex Precision Matched. All mounted up well. I think Seekins makes or made the high end Vortex rings. When looking at them, only difference seems to be the logo and the Seekins are a lot less. If I were putting a rifle together today, I'd probably order up some Seekins 30mm and be happy.
I like the Burris Xtreme or XTR tactical as I'm budget conscious. Have several pairs and they're great.
