Have a friend that lost his gun. Will post photos later when I figure out how

this morning while going to my deer lease in Burnet, TX my gun was taken out of my ranger or somehow bounced out. It was in a hard Pelican light brown case with 20 rounds of custom ammo. The case easily weight 30 pounds.
The gun is a brand new Gunware 6mmXC, It has a Nightforce ATACR 4x16 F1 on It, a defiance action and a Manners collapsable stock.
It also has my Sig Sauer SRD 7.62QD suppressor on it that is registered to the Bloomer family trust.
This is a one of a kind gun so If you see anything close to It let me know!!
It would have fallen out between Salado, Tx and Burnet, Tx.

I will be offering a reward!!!!
If you have any info please message me!
Feel free to share

I hate to hear this. I hope any police report reflects that the case was locked. I do not know the law but I think there’s a law about making firearms available etc etc.

Well jack wagon I could have been more specific but I don’t think that would help your friends situation. I’ll stick with playing dumb and hoping he looks into it.

Hope you find it or someone does that will do the right thing.

I am very happy to see that your rifle was returned. I am even happier that there are some honest people left in this world.

I have two Pelican cases that have served me well. You should take your "baby" out and see if she lost zero. Any excuse to hit the range.

That's awesome! These stories temporarily restore some of my faith in humanity. It's easy to forget sometimes that there are a lot of good folks out there.

Happy ending. Good deal.

I hope he learned not to put something that valuable in the back of a pickup not secured......very lucky on this one.
