If anyone has some good poop on a good 30.06, I’d appreciate a FReepmail. I’ve read a lot of reviews, but would like to hear/read some personal observations shooters.
Finally saved enough of my lunch money...
Thanks in advance.

Except for leftists. They don’t want them.
For a general big game hunting tool, the Ruger 77 comes to mind. I like stainless/composite myself.
then you take their weapon....
No.
And this thread provides ample reasoning for why not.

some people are simply too stupid to handle weapons.
for instance I would give G. Gordon Liddy the ability to own a firearm in an instant...(we all know Liddy's wife ‘owns’ the weapons in his house....)
I agree with this completely. If the SHTF, I want to remain one of the good guys, not become what I despise through thievery. I and several of my neighbors have tons of tactical training from military and law enforcement careers. I will use this to protect what I have, not take what I need.
I made a point to live in a place where I can own the firearms I need to achieve this.
This no felon should have guns thing seems to be a knee jerk reaction to the idea of FELONS, you know, scary criminal types, slinking around your fair city carrying all manner of weapons. Bazookas, “assault” rifles, “switchblades” maybe an 10” barrel .44 mag under their trenchcoat. Just looking to rape and pillage.
If you really think about it, it just makes the court complicit in gun control. Which, IMO, is exactly what it is intended to do.
Just cause someone may be convicted of a felony doesn’t nessesarily make them violent.
Laws of man don’t supercede the God given right of self defense.
Someone up thread referred to this as "stealing." Sigh.
M1 Garand. But I’m biased...
It depends on the context. If you’re disarming a clear enemy, then it certainly isn’t stealing.
I cannot say I believe every house hold should own guns however I do believe there should be 3 minimal requirements to own guns 1st gun saftey training for every one in the house hold 2nd, required to be a member of the NRA and 3rd be registerd voter of an anti- democrat or liberalist party. (IMO the only diffrence between liberals, democrats and comunist is the spelling.) And any household meeting these minimal requirements should have many guns. And lots of ammo
Lord willing, it will not come to that. But the last few years have made a pessimist out of me.
Gun safety training is pretty simple actually. Finger off the trigger. Never point at something you wouldn’t shoot. Consider all weapons loaded.
Follow these simple directions and no one will ever be killed or maimed by the “evil gun”.
You could teach your 7 y.o. these rules. I know, cause I have.
Saw a stat on Nat Geo's Prepper shows, 9 firearms are owned by every 10 citizens.
Nor engage in what's in my tagline.
But I think she is coming close to playing into the anti-gun mindset here. I'm not a woman; maybe she needs to make a connection there on the "safety" myth to be able to move forward.
It just makes me cringe, that's all.
Still love your stuff, Lisa.
Knowing how to safely handle a firearm is almost as easy as learning how to safely handle a sharp knife.
Marksmanship is an entirely different matter, but one should not be required to be a proficient marksman to own a firearm. It's just a good idea.
LOL, true. I don’t bother talking to liberals anymore. It’s unproductive and wastes everyone’s time.
No. Some people are just too stupid for them.
