I'm feeling much better about my looneyism after reading this thread. I'm only doubled up on 243's and 270's.... at the moment....

2- 17 HMR. 1 LH, 1 RH


4- 350 Legend bolt action. 1 LH 22", 1 LH 18", 1 RH 22", 1 RH 18" some of those are probably for the kids to use someday

Multiple, multiples

ya!


GWB

Have two 30-06s ........ One 760 20" bbl with 1.5-5 scope and another 700 with 24" bbl with a 3.5-10.

My duplicates are generally due to different styles of rifles (bolt action, autoloader, single shot, etc.). I also can see the "need" even within the action type. A guy could easily have no real overlap with a cheap .308 bolt action truck gun, a stainless/syn .308 bolt action sporter, a nice walnut/blued .308 bolt action, a flyweight mountain rifle .308 bolt action, a chopped/suppressed .308 bolt action, and a tactical/precision/target .308 bolt action. And that's just bolt guns.

Could you imagine if this thread had pictures? Damn. Although, I lost all mine in a boating accident..

Unless you are a real bad shot, multiple rifles in large calibers seems like a waste. If you want to shoot your rifles, it makes sense to shoot the smaller cartridges, and when I do that, I will shoot hundreds of rounds a day and you need multiple rifles in same or multiple cartridges to do that.

It’s best to have

5 223’s;
6 222 mags;
4 222 REM;
3 17HMR;
2 17 REM;
2 22-250’s;
3 220 Swifts;
2 22 Hornet’s;
3 or more 6mm’s

Then you need to go and shoot them…

My pickup has resembled that a time or two!

30-06 Tikka T3x SS
30-06 Kimber 84L select grade

Those are my only ones

2 -250 Savages a Ruger #1 and a custom built on a shortened Mauser action
3- 7X57 two customs one on a VZ24 action, an AI built on a Sako action and a pre64 M70 carbine
2- 270's my little brothers Ruger M77 and a pre 64 M70 FWT
2- 300 Savages a Remington 700 Classic and a custom #1
2- 7MM-08 A Weatherby Ultra Light and a custom #1
2- 6.5X55 A custom Mannlicher on a 1909 Argentine Mauser and a Dakota M10

I generally lean towards one of the single shots for my hunting rifle

Looking for a hunting club in north Alabama

Damn. I’m way behind, six 7 mags, thought I am 7 mag crazy

I have multiple 22,6, and 6.5 creedmoors. Justified by the 4 kids I have coming up.

End up doing most of my hunting with a beat up 6 cm Kimber.
