A nice original condition pre 64 Winchester M70 chambered in 300 H&H magnum has been on the list for a long time. A 22 short chambered gallery gun is another. A SCAR 17. A few more Ruger no. 1’s A Sharps 1874

Such as one of the Howa super light in 308. Bore size is no substitute for shot placement and Power is no substitute for bullet performance. 458WIN

Same with the 250-3000... & a good 222. A 338 Federal & a 280 Ackley would keep me out of trouble for a while. Maybe a 30-338 &/or a 6-284, or a 6mm Rem, or a 22 or 6BR. My 22-250 Ackley still needs a new barrel... badly. A 416 Taylor or 400 Whelen has been on the mental list for a few decades, just never scratched the itch. 375 Whelen might be an option too. All above in bolt guns. A decent 30-06 or 308 or 223 might follow me home if the price is right & the platform is to my liking. A 45/70 in a lever gun or strong single shot might be fun to fool with.

I'll eventually get around to picking one up one of these days... keep getting sidetracked on other stuff with my play money. 32-40 is an excellent pig killer

GringoCazador Campfire Regular G Joined: Sep 2004 Posts: 699 League City, Texas	I’d like to have another 284 win in something lever and bolt action, like to have both. I had a 284 win built on a Ruger 77 but sold it at the Tulsa gun show years back, wished I’d kept it. I have a Savage 99 barrels action, I need to finish the stock for it. I wouldn’t mind Ruger mini, 7.62x39. Also 6.5, about the only thing I don’t have. I’d be good with 6.5/06. I need to get off my ass and finish fitting the synthetic stock for 280 I’ve been working one. Thanks, Billy
