Number Three,

I'm just odd enough to seriously consider one of these rifles!  My Jeep CJ-5 had a 327 Corvette engine in it.  

How about a 24 inch barrel, half-octagon and half-round....that should bring the weight up to 9 or 9 1/2 pounds.....

So many toys................

Number Three,

Over the years, I've come to realize that large caliber bullets have a much more profound effect on game than smaller diameter ones.  I really do like seeing my deer drop where it's standing rather than sprinting down the logging road with red dripping out.  Over the past couple of years (read saving $$&#036<!--emo&--><img src="http://beartoothbullets.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=''><!--endemo--> I've seriously considered converting my .35 Rem 336 to one of Marshall's wildcats, or having an 1895 converted to .475/45-70.  Now, by the time I get my wife's 336 finished, Dave Clay will be well into his 50-110 and 45/50-110 work, and five years from now, I'll still be thinking about it  You know, with very few exceptions, a 45/50-110 won't do anything your Ruger already  does,and does well.

Time to go hunting!!!
