That post was so long ago I almost forgot about. I sold 3 of those guns when I quit shooting rimfire benchrest, but have added a bunch more since I have been building my own. Thanks for the kind words.
My wife has long ago lost access to my gun room......unless she is loading for her rifles. Here are two that were added at the beginning of deer season this year. I built the red one a 338-06, Don Geraci Built the other my wife. I was sick for a while so I had to get Don to finish her 25x285
For me shot guns have only have one use....home defense. My 870 stoked with BS is always close at hand. I do have a ruger red label over under somewhere.....can't remember who borrowed it last. Maybe it will turn up. I shoot everything else with rifles since I am a horrid pistol shooter.
