Knew I'd see my bud at a gathering tomorrow & waited to talk to him about the options he could have a look at. He stopped at the house a couple hours ago & told me he'd just ordered a CZ 457. He surprised the hell out of me buy not getting the varmint & turning loose of more of his dusty cash for the adjustable stock model. But dang it, I was hoping he'd want to make a road trip to Buds, Centerfire Systems, Sportsmans, & Ky. Gun Co. to view models & take me as advisor. That way he drives & I wouldn't have to split the gas bill, & maybe he'd even buy my lunch.

We went over a ton of scope models & I couldn't help showing a March or 2. No go! He might turn loose of up to $450 or 5, we'll see.

But thanks again for the help guys. I would have really liked to have tried his new Tikka or Bergara. grin
