Well after long hours of research and not being able to find a whitetail Hunter model, I ordered a T3 sight unseen. I have heard both good and bad but no better way to make a decision than to buy one. Good price, $485.00, and should have rings with it.
Supposed to be here on Wednesday, got the scope ready to go on it, so it is a waiting game now. I am kinda excited about looking at one first hand. Should make a great little back up rifle. Will let you know how things go and give my opinion. I will either have a keeper or another trader for the gun shows coming up in the next few weeks or so. Never know!
