I just didnt care for the rifle the way it was, I painted it trying to add some feeling, it worked and now it's one of my favorite toys.
I dont know if that makes any sense to anyone but paint added some character

Makes perfect sense. It's your gun. It's personal. If everyone else hates it... so what?

I've used my Browning A bolt in 270 Winchester and a 12 gauge semi-auto turkey shotgun w/24 inch barrel in the past. But this year my main predator gun is going to be a Remington 722 in .222 Remington with 40 grain Hornady V Max bullets.

But I use the Rem 870 the most since I hunt a lot in a firearms restricted unit and always in heavy cover.
