If you could only keep 1 rimfire, 1 centerfire, and 1 shotgun...what would they be and why? I would keep: 1. Ruger 10/22-Weaver Classic K4 not the most accurate .22 I own, but it gets the job done and I've had it since I was 12. 2. CZ550 Premium .270-Leupold FX-3 6x42-most accurate rifle I own, if I absolutely positively have to deliver the meat to the pot...this is the one I trust to get it done. 3. Coast to Coast Model 367 12ga(full choke)(Savage Model 30) I've only got 2 shotguns, no real attachment to either but this one gets the most use. There's mine.

Agreed, I guess moving the guns to the new safe and the fact that I'll be 40 of Friday just got me thinking...I certainly didn't see it going THAT direction.

My thinking would not be to keep the sexy....but keep them for killing power and ample supply of ammo. But if I were choosing to do it....which I wouldn't.....I'd probably keep the GAP non-typical 308, a S&W Model 18 22 LR, and a Benelli 12 Ga. Sent from my Dingleberry Handheld Wireless
