Looks like I'm in good company then! Some look they even use single shots exclusively. That's neat to see smile

And thanks for posting pics guys. I was going to comment directly on a few but yikes...there are SEVERAL beautiful guns in this thread! It would be difficult narrowing to just one or two.

When I started hunting 12 years ago, my initial logic for a repeater was a no-brainer...whether my own logic or based on what others around me were using, I don't know...probably a combination of the two. However after gaining some hunting experience and an honest evaluation of how many times I've needed a quick follow-up shot, the reality is only once that I can remember.

Agree they shouldn't be the first pick for self-defense. Anything that can shoot or bite back calls for a repeater.

Ain't sayin' my levers, pump and bolt are going anywhere soon but my oh my...how I love the single now smile
