$700 for new gun
 

If you had $700 for a new/used gun or gunsjust burning a hole in your pocket, what would you get? I'm not worrying about scopes, mounts, or other accessories. Consider that youmight need to pay sales tax to Uncle Sam. Also consider that it doesn't need to be "practical".

I'll be heading to a big Gun show in Barre Vt, in a few weeks, and it is just nice to see what other people value/desire. It makes things more interesting as I peruse the tables.

Browning A-bolt Stainless Stalker in 325 WSM.

I looked at one of them as well. Though I think I would get a .22-250 or a .220 Swift to play with. I already have several larger calibers.

I keep having this urge to pick up a bushmaster, and don't know why. But I need a high power scope right now too.

DMcguire,

There is a show in Barre Vt on February 3rd and 4th. I'm a little over 2 hours away in upstate NY. It is at the Barre Civic Center. I went last year and was amazed at the amount of guns they had. I used to be a regular at the State Fairgrounds show in Syracuse, NY, and feel the Vermont one was way better. They had an entire hockey rink and stage, plus a huge room downstairs with probabally 90% of the merchandise being guns.

My basic search list includesan older Ithaca 16 guage w/ modified or deerslayer barrel, a used ruger 77/.22wmr, any other Ithaca model 37, and perhaps something new in a .308. Can't rule out looking at the new CZ rimfires if they have them around. Of course, anything is fair game if the price is right.
