Steve, If I need a back-up rife, God forbid, I’ll use my wife’s .338 WM..... If she’ll let me! smile Though the LOP would be pretty short, if things were reversed, she’d have to use my rifle...and the LOP would be a bit too long for her! The negative for her is....she’s never shot my rifle! I don’t think she’s looking forward to an additional 19 ft/lbs of recoil. I’m sure she can handle it....at least once! wink memtb

You should not use a rifle that will kill an animal when everything goes right; you should use one that will do the job when everything goes wrong." -Bob Hagel
