New addition
« on: January 27, 2009, 03:55:06 AM »
Picked up my wife's .243 yesterday.  She's been hog hunting with me for some time now and using my .223.  She expressed an interest in getting a deer this next year, so I felt like we needed to get her something with a little more punch.  So, I purchased a standard barrel .243.  It was the package deal with the scope (cheap), but the rings are pretty good.  It'll suffice for a while.  It has the pallet wood stocks, but they actually have a nice grain to them.  It looks good and I should get out to the range with it if the weather lets up.

Yeah, I was having computer issues last night, or pictures would be present.  I'll post some later.
