A Kimber of Oregon 22LR, two Browning Low Wall 1885 243s and several old Winchesters come to mind.

That said, I don't collect firearms nearly as much anymore. I came to realize that I wasn't having much fun with just having inventory. Defined as rifles, pretty or collectible or not, that sat in a safe and I seldom if ever actually shot. When I decided to start spending more money on barrels and components and less on rifles, I became happier. It was telling when I would sell something that I had had for years, that was just a firearm and not an heirloom, and I would be happy to see it gone.

Wearing out barrels is more fun for me than taking something out of a safe to look at it occasionally. Now I measure success in any given year when I spend more on barrels and components that I do on new acquisitions.

Anybody who seriously concerns themselves with the adequacy of a Big 7mm for anything we hunt here short of brown bear, is a dufus. They are mostly making shidt up. Crunch! Nite-nite!
