WOW, what a pair of rifles.. Jeeze, that makes me feel guilty schlubbing along with my Model 70's.. I cringe when I bump my Featherweight on the ladder of a stand. I'd be suicidal if I did it with one of these. On the other hand, if I could afford one of these, I might not care as much...just send them back to the spa once a year.

Good point sir. I don't cry too much over the lumps and scratches my rifles acquire while hunting, it's the ones they pick up from the gun safe and me being in a hurry.

You could get Hornady with the .275 headstamp and raise your pinky when drinking Earl Grey. Of course, you'd have to shove it into something that looks like this:

Rigby, London. Although I believe the skin came from Ingwe's thong drawer.

Recently picked up two of the Cabelas Winchester Model 70 Supergrades in 7x57. I'm a sucker for nice wood. Wasn't planning to pick up another of these, but after seeing the second one (last photo), I could not resist. Too nice to leave on the rack. URL=/7x57_zpsac194168.png.html] [/URL] URL=http://7x57j_zpsecda00b1.png.html] [/URL] Hmmm...either they haven't removed that one from their site or there's two just alike. I went looking to see what they had and found what appears to be the same one. At least the wood looks the same. http://www.cabelas.com/product/Winchester-Model-70-Super-Grade-7x57-Mauser/1838842.uts

Obviously JStuart has class as opposed to some of you douchenozzles. Since he has class then it follows I do as well as evidenced by this picture. Younz can GFY.
Hey Ingwe, look at that...I fooled another one! I knew using the name class and JStuart would be dangerous. Reverend: How did you know I got some new glasses? This is all very weird. Lemme go get another thingee to level things out a bit. Karnis had surgery just lately, he's over-medicating...

With only two middle fingers, how do you think I hit the 'shift' key?
