People eventually wake up to this stuff after they have wallowed around awhile looking for something "better".



Bob,

There is truth to your statement.

I'm considering taking my old Springfield custom .270 with med. wt. McGowen SS barrel off the wall and giving it a whirl.

Now, I'm not abondoning the other rifles in my safe, just thought I'd give this old gun some deserved attention. As I recall, it's pretty accurate.
