My new stick
Howa 1500 .308 Winchester barreled action. Barrel is 24" heavy contour. Bell & Carlson Medalist stock with aluminum bedding block. Harris bipod. Bushnell Elite 3200 10X40 mildot scope in Burris rings and on a 20 MOA EGW steel base.
Gonna go break it in this weekend and order components to work up a load. Due to the short tube, I'm leaning to copy US M118LR since I already have lots of Reloder 15. Need to order some Winchester brass and Nosler 175 gr match bullets.
Also need to order a cheek pad/storage pocket and a TIS sling.

686s are just bad ass

Nicely done!
gift from my girlfriend's father. it's one of the toppers from "back in the day" when H&R made stuff out in gardner. the shotgun is over 20 years old but in excellent shape, looks like it just rolled off the factory floor.

I have been unable to go to Sunday Trap at my club due to my work schedule so I decided trap should come to me. A new-to-me Atlas AT50 trap thrower:
Now I just need to get the oscillating base and I am really good to go.

Got this for my trip to Maine at the end of the month:
It's the Napier Sportz Truck Tent III, got it from http://www.autoanything.com/ free shipping, arrived at my door step 2 days after the order processed. I'll be testing it out this weekend in the backyard, haha!

Let me know how it works out.Got this for my trip to Maine at the end of the month:

Certainly, I'll do a write up on it with my impressions.
New-to-me Benelli M1 Super 90. I am in love with this thing. Took it out to shoot clays with a buddy of mine and we simply couldn't miss.
Also came with this "ported, studded, wad-slowing" choke. No idea if it really does what it claims, but it seems to do the job. If anyone knows more about it, I'd appreciate the info.

Did you unscrew it and try it without? The old-timers think porting is just a gimmick but others think it reduces muzzle jump. I don't know what benefit "wad-slowing" would be. The wad is behind the shot all the way so who cares. Nice gun, glad you enjoy it.
