Don't really have anything that falls in this category because if I don't like them they go down the road immediately.
I'm pretty ruthless with rifles I dislike.
Have to agree, I won't keep a hunting rifle around I dislike.
I always come back full circle to my favorites I've had for 20 years or more.
the one that gets used the least is my 308 hoghunter suppressed. only because I used my .280AI first this year to take a nice bull elk, and my favorite 243 for a nice WT buck opening weekend. next year though I may take it antelope hunting in wyoming just because it's due to be bloodied.
the .223 ruger compact I used on goats this fall will go down the road as soon as I get it back from a LEO friend who wanted to try it out for his daughter this year. it works and is nice, but doesn't do any better than my other rifles.
