Rumors of my demise have been greatly exaggerated, dickweed.

Yes, I had a bent barrel on my stainless Model 77 Hawkeye. Ruger replaced my barrel and next-day'd it back to me in exactly one month, door-to-door. I never shot the bent barrel, but the current rifle has been pretty damned accurate and I've managed to use it to put the smack down on a fair number of feral hogs over the past two years.

I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick ass. And I'm all out of bubblegum.
