There's absolutely nothing wrong with old favorites designed nearly 100 years ago. I love shooting the .22 Hornet, .25-20 WCF, .32-20 WCF, .34-40 Krag, .30 Remington, .45-70, .405 Win and grand old .30-06. Brass can be a little hard to get hold of sometimes. I also love my 6.5 CM. Bought it on a spur of the moment in a Ruger RPF. Gun is kind of heavy, but shoots way above its pay-grade. Anybody who doesn't believe anything designed in the last 100 years can't be improved on with modern technology available today is not really thinking at all. I was going to say Racist, but that is starting to get on my own nerves.
