Ya well bigger is not always better! cookin that bacon probably cost about a hundred bucks a trip in fuel, "I KNOW", and if your interested mines for sale. lol .
Bought a Stevens 22-250 $340.00 brand new. Redid the stock with shadow grey paint job, which makes a huge difference in the looks and it throws 1" groups with factory 50's @ 100 yards all day. It's the cheapest nice rifle I've ever bought.
