The rifles are as much an addiction as the shotguns. Rain has foiled me in getting her sighted in today but maybe in the am and hunt in the pm. I must admit it came out nicely and will probably be my last as the smith is retiring.

I added a Parker 10 Gauge Lifter made in 1880, Grade 0 32" Twist Barrels #3 frame 2 5/8" chambers that I purchased from member Jay Oliver. I shot my biggest Tom Turkey I have ever killed this spring with it. It weighed over 23lbs. I'm very happy with this addition and hope to add a 28 gauge Reproduction to my collection in the coming year.

In my lifetime I’ve been hung up on the old Ruger tang safety Model 77’s , Ruger #1’s , older Remington 700’s , pre 64 Winchester Model 70’s , Kimber 89 BGR’s and Mannlicher Schoenauer’s . To say nothing of the Marlin lever addiction LOL’s !

Craig I have collected pre 64 M70's for a very long time have a couple of Ruger #1's, a custom and a 450/400 NE. One gun I regret selling even after 30+ years was a #1 AB in 7X57. My latest custom is a full Mannlicher stocked 6.5 X 55.

I'll put pictures up in a new thread John. Today is the second straight day of rain so I guess I'll have to take them inside. Trying hard to get to the range and get it sighted in. We have until the 23rd to hunt a buck with a rifle and the late doe season goes to Jan. 1. I'd like to bloody it yet this year.
