my winchester '94 is my baby ive had it since i was 11 or 12 years old. i got it after my single shot was stolen. it was probably about time too considering that the stock on that rifle was shortened to fit me when i was 6 or 7.
but the best rifle ive ever used is my fathers 7mm mag.... on a day when there wasnt much moving i paced off a 8in miss (firing at not on a pecan tree) from about 700 yards. the 18X redfield scope helped alot on that one im sure.
Dream Gun: the M-4 mounted M-203 that i caried in the service. M-4s were still experamental when i got mine so it had semiauto and fullauto selectors plus a 40mm grenade launcer under it... the newer versions of the M-4 has 3-round bursts instead of the full auto.
P.S.that 7mm hits just a hare to the right

| My dream gun would be a custom Remington 700 chambered for the Remington or Weatherby 7mm Magnum. Of course, this rifle would have a good Zeiss variable-power scope on it, and would probably have a synthetic stock. |

The only problem with watching "Snatch" is that the Desert Eagle .50 is not what it seems in the movie. Tis a movie. I would like for you to show me a time when a person can shoot a Desert Eagle with one hand.
It is a great gun though and i would feel sorry for the man that tries to shoot one handed...it will only happen once, i assure you.
Thanks

:smile: Good point.
Hollywood never seems to let physics get in the way of a good scene or special effect. The guy manhandles the D.E. 50 like its a squirt gun. |

| I shot my 30-06 one handed a few times, it wasn't very pleasant, I was way off my target. Luckily enough, it wasn't an animal. |

Yeah, a few years back I thought I'd be cool while camping at the river with my buddies. We were using 3" magnum load slugs in our 12 guages to tear apart these small trees, I decided to fire the "finishing" shot at the trunk with one hand... I honestly thought I broke my wrist!!! Oooouuuuucch!!!
