The one that looked like schit on a stick? I haven't seen any pictures of it lately. Those who must raise their voice to get their point across are generally not intelligent enough to do so in any other way.

I've become a little more conservative with stock colors lately and I'm getting bored with the blandness. I think it's time to order a few that bring sexy back. I need to order a few with colors that really pop! I enjoy handguns and I really like shotguns,...but I love rifles!

Not me, Ingwe, I just happen to have the rifle that made you Mr. 7x57. I'm sure there are others that are more looney about it than me. On the other hand, looking around my loading bench the only thing I see is 7x57 brass and .284 bullets. But I do want to see the fruit of your upcoming Stunt Shooter stint. Good hunting!
