, but honestly don't care as I am willing to save indefinitely.
Feel free to chime in with opinions or (gulp) give me more options.

My thoughts on the matter, ditch the "new" idea and go with a classic like a Brno model 21, or Mannlicher Schönauer, or even chase up a Husqvarna 146 in 9.3 x 57 and turn it into a classy 9.3 x 62 for very little coin.
Heck, go find a nice early model 70 and live a little, or find a Mauser double square bridge and live a lot.
Why settle for the mundane...everyone has vanilla, so why not try some chocolate chip with butterscotch.
