The wife isn’t too thrilled but I think I’m going to give it a new loving home this weekend. ;)

Just tell her, out of love and appreciation for all that she does, you're actually buying it for her, not yourself.  Of course that BS never works but at least you'll have some kind of an excuse.  :tup:

How about ...
Buy the gun for you and then buy a new safe for her, because you want your family to be safe  :) 
In God we trust, all others bring cash.

Do not say, Why were the old days better than these? For it is not wise to ask such questions.

My buddy has 3 Fierce rifles. All 3 shoot the same. They’re not the Cabela’s variety but they’re all built at the same place.

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

too big.
All you need is a 300 long action mag
:yeah:
I agree with 2 many, look hard at a 300 winny.

After having owned both I much prefer the win. If I were to step up more it would be a large 338.

The win will push 200+ grain bullets at 2900+.

Can’t argue with that.  :tup:
