LOL! Take one of those shooting-nut friends you have along with you and look for an older used 700, with good stock, barrel and action, ask the dealer to let you have it appraised by a gun smith. You can have that “good old days” quality at a bargain price, and really the older one will do everything the brand new one will. Probably better!

Today, you see all that trademark camo paint on most new rifles, etc, all of which has led to less attention to quality machine works. Instead, they cover it up the crude workmanship with lots of heavy paint and cosmetics.

what ever you chose to do, have lots of fun doing it! That's what it is all about in the long run. And if anarchy does break out, you can take your attackers out before they even know you are there. (Priceless)

Have a great day, and thanks for the great thread FRiend!

Great idea! I will talk to the gun nut, who works in a gun shop. Have a great evening!
