do you like haveing more than one rifle that does the same thing?

I do.

i have my 2506 for all around hunting plinking everyday kinda fun stuff. this rifles got 4.5-14 glass and seems to work exseptionaly well everywhere.

the 270 has turned into strickly hunting rifle and sees use a few months out of the year. i currently have it set up as moderate range rig with 4-16 glass and a 2lb trigger that i like alot. kinda think of it as my high mtn mulye getter.

then the the 3006. its got a 3-9 x40 and is kinda the all arounder down and dirty what i take when its nasty out or when theres lots of high mtn hiking envolved. wich there always is where i hunt. the rifle is synthetic and stainles. with a low glare sandblasted finish that works great in the sparkly sunlight.

i also now currently have two strickly smaller varmiting rifles. coyote and smaller kinda stuff. a 220 with a small target dot in the 6-18 power range. this is more my lazer beam put the bullets right where the dot is kinda rifle and i kinda think of it as a more favorable wether rifle, due to not being able to see the dot in low light conditions or heavy shadows. but have managed to take a few rabbits past sundown at exstended ranges on 6 power with the dot scope.

then 22/250, it has the same 6-18 scope but a fine duplex that i can see in all of but the dimmest light conditions. this rifle i think will be my more all around varmit rig ounce i get it going.

that makes 5 rifles. i could cut them down to 2 and still get all the same jobs acomplished. but what kinda fun would that be?. i love deer and elk rifles, needed a few. and ive got a thing for varmit rigs so i needed a few of those aswell. its also kinda fun trying to keep up with reloading all of em. wich ive never been able to get under control
