I can also offer a container of Clorox bleach wipes if they're good on hand sanitizer. Jackie Treehorn: Treats objects like women. Originally Posted by RichardAustin Montana uses Ruger actions.

Last fall my son found an original 1903 vintage Rigby 7x57 ( they were called the 275 until later) at a local gun show for $3500.

Also had a double made in 1912 that put 6 shots (3 from each) into 1 5/8" at 50 yards which was unbelievably balances and a joy to carry if not overly practical for the hunting I was doing. A Rigby is something special. When truth is ignored, it does not change an untruth from remaining a lie.
