Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

Oh man, what a beauty. I would LOVE to go for it, but the timing is not good right now. Have to wait for spring before I can do anything. Thanks for thinking of me though....wow that's a nice rifle.

Sir Henry, if you haven't bought my Christmas present yet and were waiting for Boxing Day sales, here it is. :D

You folks don't have "Boxing Day" in the US? It's a holiday here when all the Christmas stuff goes on sale...kinda like your Black Friday.

As I said in another post I think this rifle belongs at SH house for his first center fire. Since Ranchroper took a pass I think now it needs a second home. Al

That looks exactly like the one I posted the link to. 1800.00 I asked the wife if I could order one and her reply was you probably already have it on the way. :o
