My newest incarnation of modern caliber is in the neighborhood of 20 years old. I bought a Cooper Varmint Extreme in 25 WSSM. It was the French walnut and case colored action that drew me into the light like a moth. I bought the dies and about 800 pieces of brass and am glad I did. It's a nice prairie dog gun for the longer shots. I've thought of taking it to the deer blind but never have.
