OP djb Campfire Regular D Joined: Nov 2005 Posts: 1,947	I'm 49. Not old old but realize I probably have more seasons behind me than remaining. That said I 've learned a lot about what works for ME, both first hand and through other's advice. If I could advise young ME on a couple things they would include: - Concentrate on 1 perfect rifle for what you want to do rather than wanting a bunch of different rifles - Bite the bullet early and get a rimfire and centerfire suppressor (game changer) - 223 and 308 win will cover 99% of what a shooter/hunter needs to do - Skip the gimmicks and camo is not needed. Earth tones, wool, and layering systems provide flexibility in different conditions. - Pick solid optics. Reliability trumps X's, brand names, and bells and whistles. I have more but these are the one's that really stick out for me. Your local and interests may vary so let's hear your advise to yourself. Hopefully we can shorten the learning curve for the youngsters. The truth angers those whom it does not convince
