[QUOTE="Hunter 257W, post: 4425455, member: 12277"] Yeah, if you got that for $600, you certainly did good! The rifle I mentioned above for $350 was bought something like 20 years ago. And that was so low for even then that I felt guilty and forced my friend to take an 8lb can of WW 231 powder a few weeks later to ease my conscience. I could get real excited about buying shotguns too but my problem with that is that changing out shotguns messes my shooting up so much since they are shot more instinctively than rifles. Slight changes in feel and weight will change where you hit and they all shoot to a different point of impact relative to point-of-aim. I got a side x side 12 gauge several years ago and was thrilled because I'd always wanted one so bad. Well it was like learning to shoot all over again because I'd used my pair of Ithaca 37's for so long and the double felt completely alien in my hands! :) [/QUOTE]
