re: Killed some Sandhill Cranes Yesterday Morning

Our guide on the pronghorn hunt was the ranch manager that lived there on the property. When
I asked if he ever hunted the dove or quail they had everywhere, he said only when that's what his wife wants for supper.

Midway had the Shaw 16" bull barrel marked down to $95 a couple weeks ago. I grabbed one, and bought a Magpul Hunter-X stock on sale. Just got the BX-trigger but have not had a chance to install it yet. Really happy with the look of the upgrades, hopefully it shoots halfway well.

It might take 5 minutes if you stop to grab a beer.

pay close attention to the responses here. I'm not saying you can't get a bad one, but notice all but one person that has responded here that owns a Christensen really likes them and finds them to be great shooting guns.
I've found this to be the case several times over. I see bad shite written about them by people that never had one, but those that actually do own them (real people, not some guy on the internet you don't know) like them.

I own a Ridgeline Ti I purchased in 2021. My hunting buddy shot mine when I was sighting it in and bought one also.
It’s exceptionally accurate. It loves cheap Norma whitetail ammo, Barnes TTSX, and Federal Terminal Ascent. I’m not a great shot but it cuts holes at 100 yards and has killed deer out to 250 and an elk at 490.
If I could only have one rifle, that would be it. The whole rig, fully loaded with ammo is under 9 lbs. not bad for a .300 Win Mag.
That said, it’s not perfect. The trigger is really good, but there are better ones. The stock is pretty good, but a lot of folks upgrade. I’ve gotten used to mine like it is, so I have no reason to change any of it.
