That reminds me of a story.....

Walked into Esman's sporting goods mid 1970's and on the wall they had a 300 Weatherby in left hand.

beautiful wood.....and being a lefty myself...I'd never seen a left handed rifle. And all those built in those day had the Monte Carlo cheek piece on the wrong side....looked bad...felt bad.

I checked the tag and It said.........$395.00

I looked at the guy and said...I'll be back...here's $20 I'm off to get my check book.

Got back half hour later and the guy said....got a bit of a problem......the ticket should read....$1395.

Shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit.

So, I bought a Sako Finnwolf in .308 for $325.00

A few months ago I got a Tikka in 25/06

Great trigger. Had to rasp the stock where the channel is towards the last 6" of stock.

Only used factory ammo so far and it's good but not great. Think I'll do well with Berger 115's and H4831

Tough to find even 25/06 bullets these days.
