Title: help me decide...
Post by: BLUEBULLS on September 19, 2012, 07:23:52 AM: I'm looking at a early 70's model 70 in 300 win mag with a older VXII 3-9x40. Condition is good although I haven't shot it yet so I'd have to do that.

I can buy it for $400.

I don't really need another rifle but I like the fact that it also has iron sights.

should I do it or is there something new out there that would compare in overall price?

I would be on that like a hobo on a ham sammich.

You guys are horrible, you cost me more money than my wife does! Now I’ll probably have to buy her something! You were supposed to talk me out of it!

You can never have too many guns, especially when its a good deal!!! Every time I get a new one I tell my wife it was the best deal ever, she just rolls her eyes.

:yeah: I like your way of thinking my friend!
