It's like drinking a glass of Metamucil and taking a huge dump.
Ya I hear ya, got rifles I aint shot in 10 years and pistols I aint shot in 20 years. Figger the boy will have some nice stuff someday...
Ping pong balls for the win. Once you've wrestled everything else in life is easy. Dan Gable I keep my circle small, I’d rather have 4 quarters than 100 pennies.
No more handloading, fewer guns, yet I plan to hunt and shoot quite a bit next year.
Crazy world!
I walked into a bar one time and ordered a 7 up! A man sitting on the bench looked at me and said: What the hell is wrong with you man ordering 7 up?!?!
I said: Has it ever occurred to you I might be the only one in here that doesn't have something wrong with me?

Good bullets properly placed always work, but not everyone knows what good bullets are, or can reliably place them in the field

95% of us having been asking that same question since you started posting here.
This has been a great thread and you make a lot of good points. Sad to see the thread crashing crew showed up to disrupt your thread. Seems pretty disrespectful to me. I will show my respect for you by not responding to the childish rhetoric.

I will show my respect for you by not responding to the childish rhetoric. Which is actually meant to be an extremely passive aggressive, borderline menstral, response.

You better pray to the God of Skinny Punks that this wind doesn't pick up......
I have recently cut down a bit and went quality over quantity. However, I have rifles such as the one below that are just not worth selling/trading because I don't think I would get my perceived value of it on the open market.
A 1979 production BDL "Varmint Special" heavy BBL 308 Win. My wife's uncle bought it new for silhouette shooting, had it bedded and floated and the trigger worked on. Most accurate rifle I own by a lot. I worked up a load (178 A MAX, 44 grains Varget) and took it to 600m. Consistently under .6 MOA all the way out.
It's a nice rifle from some of Remington's best years and it shoots very well. On the market it's probably not worth more than any other BDL so even though I have no use for it (I would be better served with a smaller varmint cartridge) I don't think I will let it go because I think it's worth more than it's worth, if that makes any sense.
