We may know the time Ben Carson lied, but does anyone know the time Hillary Clinton told the truth? Immersing oneself in progressive lieberalism is no different than bathing in the sewage of Hell.

I really couldn't tell what model it was from the pics. Still a pretty gun in a classy cartridge. And maybe a bargin if the price doesn't climb to high.

Yes they did. I have one in my gun safe right now. Remington also made them.

If I didn't have a 284, I'd been serious about a 280AI since brass is available. Don Last edited by DMB; 04/15/07. Don Buckbee JPFO NRA Benefactor Member NSSA Life Member

If I hunted in a more reasonable environment or stand hunted deer all I'd own would be mannlicher stocked wood/blue rifles with the Brno 21 7x57 Mannlicher being the ideal! I once had a Ruger M77 (tang) RSI in 7x57... a great little rifle but not as nice as yours.

I'd rather put more rifle money (as in, money for redundant rifles I don't need!) into more African safaris, Alaskan hunts, etc.. Hunting experience is a lot harder to come by that new rifles, and it's of much greater lasting value as well. I had an inventory of fancy French walnut stockblanks for pretty new high-end customm rifles I had planned; various Mauser actions, etc, etc., and I sold off all of it and put that same money into hunts. Much better investment............ AD "The placing of the bullet is everything. The most powerful weapon made will not make up for lack of skill in marksmanship." Colonel Townsend Whelen
