Mine is my savage 840 30-30 bolt action rifle...it was given to me from my uncle a while back....still a tack driver. The other day at the range I was literally making one hole bigger and bigger. Its ugly as hell but it shoots as beautiful as heaven.

I've been damn hard on my ruger stainless synthetic, the old style with the skeletonized looking stock, and before I got the SIms recoil pad it did plenty of getting even.  But it's been through a lot and continues to deliver more than it's owner can even hope for.  Been pretty happy with that gun. :)

This will be my first season with my Ruger!  I call 'em Boat paddle stocks.  I can't imagine a tougher gun!

I own three Savage rifles so I might be just a little biased. I think that Savage is the best.
