Well the shows have been pretty crowded lately. I really don't like to be in a crowd and presses in. It's ok if I am on the sellin side of a table. I actually do know why I have 9 Kimbers..and want one more but I want a walkin around type of Varminter in 22-250..Heck I'd even take a Swift if they made one. I have found a way to stay away from any 28 calibers so far. but I do have a 22 24 25 26 30 338..some more than once...or twice. Gonna reduce the herd a bit if I can find the 22-250. I find the Kimbers to be well made pretty rifles. A kind of slimmed down lighter copy of the pre 64 Win M-70. And that brings up anothe thing. Been seeing the pre 64s at gun shown for the last few years. They have seemed to have flattened in price lately and they still aren't selling. I guess all the old guys(like me) have all they want or need and the young'uns don't really know all that much about them. Well the young'uns all want rifles with tupperware stocks and ugly finishes in all kind of ultra ubber mangle-um calibers. I did come close to buying a pre M-70 in 264 Win Mag..but it was a Featherweight..with 22 in bbl. Burn a whole lot more powder to get maybe 100 ft per second than the 260 Rem caliber..Kind of a waste. How's things going GOB? Gettin any better? Findin any DECENT jobs?? Work is kinda tight round here but the summer tourista season is comin...and all kinds of stuff is happening here. Lot of construction
