There are lots of nice rifles displayed on this forum. Every time geedubya posts photos I have to stop and admire his taste in firearms. There are lots of others as well.
That said, I don't want or need anyone else's rifles. I sold my one safe queen and don't want another. The rifle I'm building now on a Savage 111 action and factory birch stock probably won't be complete until next year and it likely won't set anyone else's heart afire with desire to own it. It will, however, meet my needs and, like many of my firearms, probably get handed down to daughters or grandkids. My daughters already have a history with some of them and, hopefully, will cherish others as I do the firearms I have that were handed down to me by Granddad.
It is kind of like sports cars - I like looking at them, enjoy driving them when I can rent one, but have no desire to own one.

No, I'm not a Ruger bigot - just an unabashed fan of their revolvers, M77's and #1's.
A good .30-06 is a 99% solution.

Ok......so you have “your” favorite. What if you could have another ‘fire memeber’s rig?
There’s a M70 EW in an Edge that pops up every now and then that I’d like then there’s a fluted 7-08 of BS that I’ve always been partial to.
Summer boredom, gonna have to think a bit on that one. GW has so many I can’t even keep track.
I want you XTR featherweight that shoots 1 ragged hole...
I try to stick with the basics, they do so well. Nothing fancy mind you, just plain jane will get it done with style. You want to see an animal drop right now? Shoot him in the ear hole. BSA MAGA

My fav, my trusty ole encore prohunter 35 wheeler. Jim hendershot (?) fixed the trigger for me. I’ve only seen two with a factory brake.
I’ve seen several LH’s on here thst make me envious though.
Geedubya’s gun and knife pics never disappoint. Actually i look forward to them!

This is one........and it’s a 270 to boot.... That's my rifle, I bought the rifle off of RenoH414 and the Edge from TDN. The classifieds here have been pretty good to me when I have cash to spare. I think TC1 puts together some pretty cool stuff.

...... and pretty much all of Whitebird's rifles.... Yeah, but you CAN'T have this one !! I've already claimed this 6.5-06 that belongs to Whitebird. He hasn't sold it to me yet............. I'm waiting. Pic is in the Deer Hunting Forum, Let's see some really big deer -- Thread on P 72, 2/18/17 Jerry Nice rifle. Too bad about all those splotches and streaks on the stock.😛
What fresh Hell is this?

I miss Bob..... Same here. I miss Bob too.. I’d love to have his Simillion 7 Masher as well. That’s a perfect western killing gun. I built mine on his blueprint but I’d still rather have his!

I like Steelhead's Ruger M77RSI 250 Savage.
Hanco has some great rifles also.

I'd pick a 6.5 GAP out of scenarshooter's safe, but only if the scope came with it.
Oh yeah, and he'd have to sweeten the deal with a few hunnerd of his handloads...... .

Thanks Beretz, I am a savage barrel swapping fool..... they are the erector set of rifles. The one pictured is a 260 with a Douglas 1/8 twist. Weighs 6.5lbs all up . I have a 7-08 , 243, 22-250 and 308 barrel for it also.

Bob helped keep a lot of us grounded! I have a pre 64 fwt 270 in a mcmillan compact edge I call Bob's gun! That nice rifle of whitebird's with the big moose rack would be easy enough to keep hold of too and provides some inspiration on direction of the next rifle for me!
