Just found a new Rifle..

[Rocky Raab]

Go whack some more of those whistlepigs, LH! That K-3 ought to be about a perfect match for your rifle, or on Karen's. She gets close enough to them that she wouldn't need more scope power.

Skeet, your finds astound me. Those are some of THE most collectible guns anywhere!

Rocky ... I bought 600 rounds of factory 41 mag ammo at an estate auction 4 yrs ago...for 2 bucks a box. and 500 new brass and 400 bullets for 20 bucks??..Been looking for a gun since then. Guy had one of the new 57's at the gun show...and it is no contest.. The olders ones are really much better in quality..and I like a hammer with a real firing pin. I know the new style Smiths are probably "safer" but they don't have that "panache" of the older ones. I had an older Diamondback 22 in 4 inch one time...one of the most accurate revolvers I ever had.. But for some reason I just like Smith & Wesson better. I am going to shoot this Colt though. I shoot those nasty blackbirds and grackels that chase the little pretty birds away from the feeder..bird shot of course.. I can get more of 'em with each shot thataway!

I also acquired one of the newer 700SPS rifles in 223...new but no box. Only paid 400 for it but it's a rifle I can shoot and hunt PDogs etc with and not worry about banging up. I bought a Ruger 77 (280)stainless guns with plastic stock last fall just to hunt with.. So I don't beat up my ol purty rifles. I had another one in 280 that I sold..it had a purty wood stock. Them mountains are hard on guns..on me too. gettin too old for this mountain stuff...welllll...maybe not yet
