Anytime I talk about buying a new gun my wife asks me which one I'm going to sell to buy it. [:@] Some women are too smart.

DannyD,

You gave your friend some good advice on getting a 336. I had one many moons ago and wish I still had it. Where I hunt most of the time, that is all I would ever need. I use to reload when I was a teenager and experimented with hot 30-30 loads in my 336 without blowing it up. Strong rifle.
