Went to my local Gander on a mission to burn up some left over gift cards. (It's nice and quiet since Cabelas opened) I figured while I was there I'd interrupt whatever the gun counter guy was doing on his phone. I have a list of possible new rifles:
Ruger American
Mossberg Patriot
Tikka T3 Hunter
Win Mod 70
Ruger M77
Browning X Bolt
CZ
No Mossberg, tikka wood seemed just as plastic-y as their actual plastic stocks. Win 70 was nice but they only had a featherweight.
Then the GSR caught my eye, stock felt a tad cheap but when I shouldered it I knew I was in trouble. It just felt right.
Gander being gander had one used for $1099 or new for $999 (no that's not a mistake)
Of all the nice rifles out there the $1k Ruger is the one that appeals to me. Somebody talk me out of it, tell me they blow up, that they are actually made by Remington, something! Anything!
