My boat paddle stocked Ruger in .243. Had a VariX ll 2-7x33 on it. I used it for quite a few years on everything from rabbits to pigs and goats. But then I bought my first .257 Roberts and the .243 sat up the back of the safe for about 15 years. I couldn't sell it as it was my first rifle. I replaced the stock with a walnut take off for $100 which looked nice, the walnut and stainless steel. But I finally rebarrelled it a couple of years ago to 6.5 CM. I replaced the Leupold with a 6x42 Meopta but didn't really like it as the Meopta is a big scope for a 6x. So I replaced that with a 6x38 Weaver after reading about them In Rifle Loony News. And now I actually get to shoot the rifle a bit more.
The stupid thing is when I took the Loopy off and put the Meopta on, I think I put the Loopy in the Meopta box. I remember throwing the Meopta box in the recycling..................and I think I threw the Leupold scope out as I can't find it anywhere. Duh! Shame as they are great little scopes and I still have two more that get used a bit.

You'll probably never NEED a gun. In fact I hope you never do. BUT IF you do, you will probably need it worse than anything you've ever needed before in your life...

Not sure which one was first.... It was 54 or so years ago. Either my buddies old Savage 23D .22 Hornet or an old Mosin Nagant that had been butchered including a hacksaw shortened barrel that was only an inch or two over legal minimum. IIRC it wasn't recrowned either. A real muzzle blast flamethrowing special.
