On page 275 of Jack O’Connor’s excellent book “Sheep and Sheep Hunting” he writes the following “A 7.5 or 8-pound scope-equipped No.1 (referring to the Ruger 1) in 7x57... would be an excellent lazy man’s sheep rifle.”
Now I’m not exactly a ball of fire and most other sheep hunters I know are not either; but “Lazy Man”?
Any idea what he meant by that comment? I have tried to figure that out for years but I don’t seem to be astute enough to get it. How about you?
