After seeing Ingwe's faux TI I've had a hankerin' for the same build but chambered in .260 Rem.
Fish: DO IT!!! Been shooting it a bit and honestly enjoy it as much as any rifle in the safe, good handling, death ray, yada yada yada...

None planned. I want to shoot the ones I have. The snow is finally melting here and I will get to the range this week and go hunting more. The new 32mm binoculars (Leu.7-12x 32) are really working well. Light weight and even good with glasses.
The new Minox and 7mm WSM need to be sorted out. I saw a Stevens Visible Loader in the safe that I can't recall ever shooting.
Maybe I will sell a gun. The market is so bad however.
All guns should be locked up when not in use!

Ruger # 3 in 30.40 Krag. Add a compact little Leupold and deer hunt with it the rest of my life.

Don't do this to an Old Man.... Do what? That Hawkeye African in 6.5x54MS is one of the sweetest ideas I've heard, even if it did come from Scott. Man, when you get that thing done.... Wow...

I've got a Springfield right now and have probably owned a half dozen or close to it, over the years. They are fine. You should check out Remington's new 1911 though, if you're going milspec. They're made here.

I've been on a .22 LR kick lately. It's for the grandkids, honey! Currently got three on layaway. A S&W Model 41, and two Ruger 77/22's, a .22LR and a .22Mag. My next one may well be the S&W 15-22 Performance Center rifle. That looks to be one seriously fun machine, for the grandkids, of course!
