Default $700 for new gun

If you had $700 for a new/used gun or gunsjust burning a hole in your pocket, what would you get? I'm not worrying about scopes, mounts, or other accessories. Consider that youmight need to pay sales tax to Uncle Sam. Also consider that it doesn't need to be "practical".

I'll be heading to a big Gun show in Barre Vt, in a few weeks, and it is just nice to see what other people value/desire. It makes things more interesting as I peruse the tables.

I looked at one of them as well. Though I think I would get a .22-250 or a .220 Swift to play with. I already have several larger calibers.

I keep having this urge to pick up a bushmaster, and don't know why. But I need a high power scope right now too.
