Re: BIG HORN ARMORY

I told a lie. I went and measured them and the BH is smaller than 71. Width 71 is 1.23, BH is 1.13
Front of receiver to back of bolt, BH 5.22, 71 is 5.74

How are you doing with the Whelen? I wish I could still shoot peep sights. I think a rifle looks cleaner with a peep sight instead of a scope. I seem to be to shoot the red dot sight OK. I have several guns with red dots on them.........Joe
