All of that is sound advice, and I doubt I will leap until I feel like it can't be passed up. I have plenty of capable rifles for the whitetail and black bear hunts coming up, so the rush is mainly for fun and wanting it in hand. I still would like to handle a FC before I commit to it, and may make a several hour drive some day soon just to handle one.

Thanks for the suggestion, and if you happen to stumble across something think of this thread, lol.
