Any particular reason?


Since moving to NC I've been hunting on National Forest land almost exclusively, where most of my spots are several miles from the road; and on top of that it seems to be raining more often than not when I have the chance to go. So I usually opt for my Model 7 Stainless/Synthetic in 308. While back in WV for the holidays the last few weeks, I took those 2 rifles plus my 270, but again the weather was always nasty and the Model 7 got to go.
