Now wait just a cotton pickin' minute. You launch plastic tipped bullets through the Ingwe Special - something NONE of my 7x57s have ever seen - and you're balking at a ss/syn to shoot in the rain?

Now did I say I was going to get one? No. What I said is, I think that'd be the ticket in an autoloader. But I ain't gettin' one of those either.

Just gorgeous, and I prefer the black recoil pad with the dark wood to the sometimes seen red ones. That one starts at 16,500 pounds sterling - for the rifle alone, not with any of the options you see. I priced it the other day as I'd like to have it: US dollar equivalent - $36,089.16, not including the case or glass. Drop in the bucket!!

About 90 pounds or so. I'm still in camp, but will post on "Corn Eaters" thread. Wait till you see. By the way, buy a Therma-Cell before you come. First time I've used it. It works.
