To quote a famous gunwriter, I am 95% hunter 5% shooter.
As such, I don't generally have all that many rifles in the safe. Currently, my hunting battery consists of a 270 Win, a 30-06 and a 375. I have a pair of pretty collector rifles in 30-06 and 338 Win. That's it.
I do have a lot of real estate though. If you guys want to talk about investments that make money while you own them, and gain value for later, that is the ticket. You can hunt on it too, without a lot of other people involved.
I like the way you think! I think a light/lightish middle caliber rifle wouldn't have me wanting for much. But, with two young boys they seem to get anything new that comes into the house...
Then again, one of those rifles, assuming they are the same ones you had when we met, would be every rifle in my house...
