As a true looney, I have more than my share of rifles. I want to use every one of them to hunt with. To do this I always carry three rifles hunting. The intent is to use one for early morning stand, one for stalk hunting during the middle of the day, and the other for afternoon stand. Sometimes I end up not using all three, but that is the my goal. I am not worried about a rifle failing, I just want to use as many of my rifles as I can and this is a way to achieve that. I do not enjoy hunting with shotguns or handguns or bows....I am a rifleman!
