Yeah, Bob, I'm pretty superstitious too. My present plans call for one primary rifle on my hunting trips, a bolt gun, another backup rifle, another bolt gun, and maybe the 760 for those really heavy cover elk hunts where I run the risk of hitting something like a twig. Having learned the hard way that when bullets hit twigs they do lots of things, none of them good, the only solution I can come up with is to shoot again since the mythical "brush busting" bullet or load apparently doesn't exist.
During the off season, I plan to load the 760 with Speer Varmiter 110 gr. HP's. That will go with me when I scout via Jeep and run into our local coyotes.
Then, of course, is the fun factor of shooting running jack rabbits and other forms of practice. E
