I looked for years for a decent .250 Savage. Finally saw a Ruger 77 NIB at the Big Reno Show but thought the guy wanted $50 too much. Passed.
Stupid. Stupid. Stupid.
A few months ago
Friend of a friend owns a shop. Was in the neighborhood so swung in to look. .250 in a 77 ultralight. Don’t need anymore deer sized rifles. Didn’t look at the price. A week later decided to heck with it, would buy it no matter the price. Drive the 40 miles there, it’s not on the rack. Call my buddy’s buddy up, “yeah, it sold this morning”.
Regret not grabbing a pristine Ithaca 37 in 16 guage, early 50s version. $300. Went back the next day. Gone.
