What rifle do you think is a real fine looking weapon? If you already own it please post an image if you don't what would you consider buying. I still have an itch for a huntable beauty. I think some Ruger #1's and the new Cooper #54 would be a good start to look at. That's right need to see a little gun porn! Buckfever1

No pics, yet, but a Ruger no. 1 is in my very forseable future.

Hmmm. All those fine looking rifles and I saw not one ding/scratch of any of them.I'd be ashamed to show mine becasue of it.Are those actual rifles used in the field?

I used this one, one time only, on an elk hunt- took the biggest bull of my life.
I'd rather be a free man in my grave, than living as a puppet or a slave....

Some folks don't beat the hell out of their equipment when they use it. Just becuase you don't see enough dings in the above rifles to suit you, does not mean they have not been used.

Lots of good choices, but if I wanted a nice wood stocked factory rifle. A Merkel KR-1 Stutzen would be on my short list. For a custom, the one mehulkamdar pictured would work just fine for me. Terry

I love blued steel and beautiful wood, but over the last dozen years, I've come to appreciate low maintenance stainless and synthetic for woodland hunting.
