Know the feeling - I just have zero desire to own a black plastic semi auto AR anything. I have no desire to play rambo and spray bullets. More of a one shot one kill type myself. I do own a 30-06(Pre-War M70) 12ga (Ruger Red Label) and a .22 (CZ 455) Instead of the .223 I have another CZ in .17HMR that makes a fantastic semi urban rock chuck slayer. All I have left to round out my battery is a S&W.38special Airweight that i carry bowhunting and a .22 cal Beman R-9 Pellet rifle that slays the chucks closer to subdivisions. The only real hankering I have for a new rifle is a Win Model 70 Featherweight in .308 Win. Not sexy by modern standards but classy in my book.
