Like I said, I already have alot of bolt guns from 22-35cal. My oldest son has a Model 7yth .243 with a 2x7 Monarch and it IS a great lil gun! I HAD a Model 7 Mountain Rifle in 7-08 back in the early 90s and wish like hell I would've kept it!

I just enjoy rifles, truth is that's the only reason I gun hunt. I'd rather bow hunt than eat, but I enjoy being out there with a good rifle during season.

My FAVORITE reason for getting another gun is "just because",
