I have never seen a rifle too long to fit in a gun safe unless it is a handgun safe!

Ridge Runner it looks like you're a southpaw too. If you want to dump any of those please give me first shot (pun intended)! I really like that one next to the Ruger #1

Bronco, that's a 7mm Allen Mag, sort of a 7mm/338 Lapua AI, runs a 160 at 3575 fps, or a 180 at 3300, has taken whitetails beyond 3/4 of a mile, on the downward slide as far as barrel life, hope for a rebarrell in 2020 soon as funds allow.

just a redneck who likes hunting, shooting and fishing.......you don't wanna see my collection of fishing rods! 95% of all the money I have made in 45 years was spent on fast cars, hunting, fishing, reloading, drinking beer and girls. I wasted the rest!

I love Rugers, although not in semi-auto. Still, can't bring myself to warm up to the 5.7, though I am delighted that Ruger is taking a dent out of the overpriced FN Five seveN.
