For a bolt action hunting gun, which do you like better? I know the advantages of stainless and synthetic stocked guns. Are there any advantages to a wood stocked blued steel gun?
Now that I'm older, I understand that the most bad weather I'm likely to see is one day's worth or so, I really like the looks of a nice blueing job and good quality walnut. The fact is, stainless and synthetic is totally un-needed by 100% of all sportsmen in the USA.
When I was younger and concerned with "possibilities" like being out in freezing rain and snow for months on end, or somehow being involved in a colossal Kursk-style battle, I wanted stainless and composite stocks real bad.
If you had more than one family member who hunts, particularly ones who aren't all into guns and their proper field careI think it is smart to have one plastic hunting rifle, but I would be hard pressed to come up with a good reason to own two.
