Dave thanks for the report... I have a little better feeling for the Genesis as a result of report... not enough to go buy one but at least i can say I know a fellow shooter that has one and has positive words...

Your first three sure were impressive...

With those first three I had a perfect sight picture because of the clouds. That center circle looked just like a 8 with that front fiber optic. And the trigger really is good. I decided to just let the gun roar and take the recoil. I was very pleased.

Actually I was pretty happy with the rifle and the accuracy. I want to shoot some other powders through it tomorrow if the weather holds.

That is really encouraging.... I did tell Terry that you had purchased another new gun... She pointed out the window... thought she was pointing to the shed in the back yard... but wouldn't you no she would be way ahead of me.... "take that new 4 wheeler back and maybe we can discuss a new rifle for the new scope you have been hiding" she says.... on my part all I could think of was OOP's!

Tell Terry that not having a gun for that scope is like her having a new pair of shoes and no dress to wear them with.I tried that with my wife one time and at least got a pause before she said no.

This is like it is.... Terry's maden name was Murphy and her mothers maden name was O'Brady.... would like to re-phrase the part where you say "Tell Terry"

When I was at Cabala's today I played around with a Genesis for a little while. Have to say -I was impressed with the gun and the price. I just have no great desire for another in-line (except maybe that little X7 ).

Oh, I also pulled a new$600 SST Omega with a thumbhole stock off the gun rack and was surprised to find theentire barrel was speckled with what looked like pin-point sized rust spots that I could not rub off with my thumb.

Have any proof of that?

You have too many guns now Sabotloader.. You have more rifles then I do.That's the problem. And you should be glad you have such a wonderful wife to keep you in check.

I on the other hand, I answer to no one but myself. And believe me, I tried to talk myself out of this last one. But when I heard Underclocked had one, I just had to get one too.
