I almost bought one in 7-08 but then thought nah. That was really dumb. "An archer sees how far he can be from a target and still hit it, a bowhunter sees how close he can get before he shoots." It is certainly easy to use that same line of thinking with firearms. -- Unknown

Only reason I bought mine is I liked the feel...it was on clearance for half price $399 and there was a $150 rebate on top of that! It IS heavy though at 9.25 lbs all up. But I'm old now and hardly ever carry it anyplace but to the blind! "...the left considers you vermin, and they'll kill you given the chance..." Bristoe

Browning X-Bolt in 26 Nosler Those who must raise their voice to get their point across are generally not intelligent enough to do so in any other way.

Right, Mr. Chisum? John Chisum: Wrong, Mr. Pepper. Because no matter where people go, sooner or later there's the law. And sooner or later they find God's already been there.
