What do you think for a very handy rifle, easy to get in and out of a truck or a stand: Ruger No 1 RSI or M77 RSI? 7x57 of course.

I dunno if they ever made a 77RSI in 7x57�but if so��.
Speaking only for myself mind you, but I never liked 'uncircumcised' rifles�.

All the more reason to do it then!! Still think about doing it. Load the .270 Ingwe with a 160 gr Nosler Partition.

Speaking only for myself mind you, but I never liked 'uncircumcised' rifles�. Yeah, they sure enough did: 18.5 inch barrel I think. It'd be pretty handy, circumcised or not.

On my first ever 'build' ( a .223�) The gunsmith asked how long I wanted the barrel�. " Short enough to turn around inside the cab of a pickup�"
