ANYWAYS.........BACK TO THE TOPIC......
I wouldn't spend $2000 on a single gun. I would probably get a Ruger 10/22 and modify it out the butt. Then I would probably get a Remington or Mossberg 12 gauge with multiple barrels. If I have enough left, I would probably get a .223 or something to yote hunt. If not, then with the rest I would stock up on shells or buy a pigeon thrower and pigeons.
