It doesn't require a lot of rifles to reach Looney status. I have a couple of friends who only own a big-game rifle and a 22 l.r. and they are both Loonies - they can quote facts about practically every rifle that is or has been available. Neither of them has a desire to own a lot of rifles but they are definitely into them to the point of being Loonies.

I understand that. I'd rather talk rifles/cartridges with someone who knows and understands what's what than
someone who owns a dozen rifles but is a ballistic baboon. I actually personally know more 'baboons' than hunters who are informed.
Yrs ago I moved into a new community to me and got acquainted with a guy who became a close personal and hunting friend. After a little while he told his wife....."Now I have someone that I can talk guns with." Sadly, he died 2 yrs. ago. I miss him.
