jwall, i agree !! i hated shelling out big bucks for a glorified t3
but i liked the way it looked so much !!! kinda like when you go shopping for a wife !
common sense says buy a syn./birch savage, stick a tasco/simmons on it and drop by the walmart and pick up a chinese bino and a $14 dollar a box ammo and go fill your tag, but wheres the fun in that ??
some guys are sick enough to have 2 safes full of big game rifles but always grab the same one every year when seasons come around regardless of the species..you know the .243 for the doe, the 25-06 for the antelope, the .270 for the deer, the .338 for the elk, the 300 for the combo deer/elk, the stw for the beanfield, the 45/70 for the timber and then grab either your .280, 30-06, or 7mm rem. like you do every other time on opening day !
couldnt really justify buying that tecomate when theres $$$$$$$ dollars sitting in the safe already that havent even been shot yet, but those damn beer goggles got put on again !!
