I have often quoted Lauren's brother Jed: "You only need one shooter." I realize some of us hunt a variety of game and several shooters might make sense, but if you are going to own a lot of guns, why do they all need to be shooters? I have plenty of vintage/antique lever rifles and I shoot some of them. I tend to not shoot the high condition ones. I could and as they are not unfired, a trip to the range would be undectable (unless something really bad happened). Still, I don't take the nicest ones to the range, because I have plenty of other guns to bring wink It is not important to me that I have shot every gun in my collection.
