[QUOTE="silverbullet_99, post: 1523480, member: 32103"] I have a Swift and it actually skipped a generation. My grand dad was always they collecting kind of guy that picked up whatever was a good deal, guns included. I remember him telling me about answering an advertisement about a Ruger rifle for $300. I asked to see it and it turned out to be a Ruger 77 red pad sporter barreled Swift. Having grown up on the open prairies of Western Nebraska, fast and flat filled the bill. Also, 2 guys I knew who were **** good coyote callers shot nothing but a Swift and if they could see it, it died. I offered him his money back against it and as a 16 year old kid that was a he'll of a dent in a paycheck. Dad just shook his head as he was a .22-250 guy, but I got it bought. 20 plus years later, any time I need to have a chat with grandpa I grab that rifle, park myself on a side hill and cut loose with a cotton tail in distress knowing I've got his approval no matter the results of the stand.
