Let's See Your Ugly Rifles

This is my Remington rolling block in 219 Zipper.I grafted the buttstock from a 1100 shotgun that I used to shoot trap with.I shoot this rifle regularly,and the 5 shot group taped to it is how it really shoots 5 shots at 100 yards.I take it to the local range and do sort of a nutty professor routine with it.I put it on old denim pantleg sandbags and put on an old paintball mask and tell any unfortunate soul who happens to be close to stay back because it sort of blew up the last time I shot it,but I think I got it welded so it'll stay together this time.
The fun I've had with it is priceless.Because of pulling legs at the range and because I've got a couple of groundhogs at almost 400 yards with it.

That's not ugly.
Why,thank you,sir.The last rifle I built got a comment from a friend of mine who said the rifle's not too bad looking,but the quarter inch group you just shot with it is beautiful.That's not ugly.

Yeah, not ugly. I'd love a rolling block, if you find that you can't stand the sight of her anymore she can stay at my house.That's not ugly.

Lifes too short to shoot ugly guns.......
But my Romanian is probably my homliest.

The way that little cutie shoots,she has a place in my safe for as long as I can keep her.I don't think a lot of guys believe me when I talk about how it shoots.I can't help but wonder what that barrel would do if it was threaded for a good bolt action.It's a 1 in 16 twist,so the best bullet I've found for it so far is a 40 grain V-Max.

I've got an ugly one handy,
That's a winchester model 250 (22 s/l/lr) , it's like the redheaded step child of the winchester lever actions. Goofy lever that the trigger travels with, plastic sights & barrel bands ect. They made these between 1963-1973, I was shocked it could be that old but I guess it is. I traded 100 rds of factory reloaded 45acp for it 10 years ago or so and the guy I got it from was surprised I wanted it.
In the poor things defense, it is a smooth and accurate rifle. I use it with CB shorts for yard pests- and also if I know conditions are bad, it's a rifle that I don't care if it gets banged up and wet. It has held up well but it's just ugly and weird. Sorry to any winchester 250 fans out there.

my really ugly guy is this VZ24 that I tossed a clamp on scope mount onto, dropped it into a Hogue stock, then added a Harris bipod. She’s kinda front heavy, but shoots fairly decent. It has so much metal that’s back in the white. It’s in my “gonna address that one of these days” pile.
Got this old Bronco 22LR, that the prior owner had cut the side out of, to see why it wouldn’t work!
My boy likes to shoot it, and I guess he can see the relationship of the parts.
