Package came today with a new toy. SSK 375JDJ, SSK Krome, full length TSOB, with magnaport, dies, brass, several hundred bullets, Pachmyers, 2.5 Redfield, 4 rings. The frame will be picked up tomorrow.
This was purchased from SSK in the 80's by a gentleman in Florida, took it to Alaska and shot the #3 Brown Bear in Safari Club Intl book at that time. Been in the safe since. The frame is also SSK Krome. Can't wait to put it together and put a few rounds thru it. I have been shooting Nosler 260 Accubonds in my old SSK 375JDJ with great accuracy. I hope this one will do the same. He even send some 300grn round nose bullets for dangerous game. Not here in Oklahoma that I know of.

Ducks, just hold on. I might be unloading one of my TC Contenders. Don't need two 375JDJ's. HAH
More to come.

Very nice setup. I bought one like it from SSK also in the 80's. Gave it to my son for Highschool graduation. I and He have been very pleased. It will hit golf balls at 75 yards if I do my part. 
Safe shooting

Enjoy life but, remember we are only practicing for something better.

Love getting new toys... Pretty sweet it has a awesome story behind it too.
I have more guns than I need, but not nearly as many as I want...
