Been thinking about this off and on for the past 24 hours now...
My main concern is accuracy. Other than my beloved pre-64 Win 30-30, I don't own any rifles that are not accurate rifles - and my old 30-30 is more accurate than most (which is partly why I've had it since 1984). I just can't stomach the idea of getting that 7-30 Waters - as nice as it is - and ending up with yet another 2" rifle that I don't have a lot of confidence in. If I want nostalgia, nothing is going to beat my old 30-30 for that. If I knew it was a dead-nuts shooter, then maybe so. But at this point, I've pretty much talked myself out of it, so if any of you think you want it, send me a message and I'll tell you where it is. If you hurry, it might still be there.
