I'm right there with you CowboyTim. I'm thinking of getting down to my model 700 that I bought when I was 15. It's a 30/06. It will handle anything that I plan on hunting. I've got a Ruger 375 that I used on a grizzly hunt, killed a grizz---doubt if I'll do that hunt again. I've got a Tikka 223 for prairie dogs-----I could just use my 17HMR or a 22LR. I could live out the rest of my days with a 30/06, 22 lr and a 12 gauge.


I love shooting trap-----so my BT99 will be will me forever.
