I know I've been putting up a lot of posts lately asking numerous questions about caliber and different rifles but in 2 months I'll be buying a rifle and I really want to make a good choice. It will have taken me almost a half a year to save up the $$ for this so when it's said and done I don't want to look back and say dang I should have gotten.... So thank you for all of your help, patience, and guidance now and in the future.

I think we all have that period of Q/A. And we all understand wanting to know what your getting before youcough up for it. Good luck and tell us what you decide on.

This group of shooters has been very helpful to me, also. Thanks. I have learned a lot and enjoyed reading and sometimes taking part in the banter among y'all.[&:]

I'm not qualified to give bigpapa any suggestions beyond my current fascination withRuger. They just feel good in my hands, know what I mean?

I know what you mean. I love all my rugers.
