You deserve a break.

No reason to quit anytime soon, if you are at home.

Naming inantimate objects is and has been common, from ships to guns. Many famous people named their guns. Buffalo Bill named his trapdoor "Locricia Borsa", Davy Crockett of course was "Betsy", Danial Boones was "Ticklicker", Hugh Glasses Hawkins was "Bullthrower", another montain man that had a 62 caliber muzzleloader that shot a one ounce ball name his rifle "Knock em Stiff" just to name a few. I lived with guns daily as a guide and I named my old Winchester "The Winch", my pre war Colt Woodsman "Cridder Getter". I have a real truck with snowplow, winch, heavy suspention, power lift, aggressive tires. I USE this truck and it has the scars to prove it. I left it to my kids to name her. I assumed they would name it appropriate to its statis as a hard working battle truck. They named it "Buttercup", go figure.

Doubt you have any kids or have enjoyed the company of a woman. A conscious one anyway. You're the four eyed nerdy geek everybody picked on in school bud, Not me. I was right popular with the ladies. Always was damned good lookin' and well laid out and had my pick of the cream of the crop. My first wife coulda been Valerie Bertinelli's twin sister and that's a fact. Our daughters are sure enough model material. Our son does right well with the young ladies too.

I name them all. There's 30-06, 22-250, 35 Whelen, 7mm Rem Mag, 375, etc. Sometimes I need to add (1) and (2).

Yeah, but those bastards can handle deer, bear, and elephants (provided they are twisted 8).

The smart Grizzly bears will just raise their paws and surrender.

Just one -- a 50 caliber Hawken Flinter that is named "Ole Thunder." Seemed appropriate after the first time I touched off 100 grains of FFg and a 460 grain bullet.

JOC was right. The 270 Winchester on a Model 70 is a great combination as is the 30/06 and 375 H&H
