Hello from...

Post by C Haden » Sun Oct 20, 2019 10:17 am

An old, retired curmudgeon in south central Missouri. I bought my youngest son a youth rifle for a birthday present about 6 years ago, and after seeing how well made, pretty, and just plain fun to shoot it was, I ran out and bought myself a golden boy. A .22 mag soon followed. Just picked up a new, Long Ranger in .308 a couple days ago, and came looking for a forum to glean a little knowledge on this particular rifle.
