Perhaps a nice Model 70, 700, or 77 will follow you home 'ere long. <br /><br />(The .577-450 MH redeems all though, as for sheer coolness factor alone, its inclusion would turn a list with only a .22, .38, and 12 ga, into an awesome collection.)an Donalbanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06418506325893352676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20147126.post-11652049717692201012013-08-24T19:17:18.428-05:002013-08-24T19:17:18.428-05:00@ Paul: I'll fight with any of them if I have ...@ Paul: I'll fight with any of them if I have to.
