I held it in my hands....... but it took too long to come in, and I went and bought a dang ring instead It's at the Academy in San Marcos.. unless the gun counter guy snatched it up already. The lady has no idea how big this is.. hope it goes to a good home!

take the ring back
Life's journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting.......holy kaka.....What a Ride!

....and I hear the new Ranch Rifles are much more accurate than the older versions. I bet that rifle at Academy is a 1 MOA tack-holer!

I suspect he's talking about the American bolt action, not the semi-auto. I'd be disappointed if it wasn't much better than 1 MOA. My first trip with my American standard, just OTC ammo, best group was 3/4.

If you're under 30, take the ring back for a refund and buy the gun. You can thank me later.

You haven't proposed yet, right? So she doesn't know you bought the ring and can return it.
It is far more important to be able to hit the target than it is to haggle over who makes a weapon or who pulls a trigger.

I was on the "waiting list" for one at Cabelas. They said they would call in March when they come in, they never called...

I'm hitting the big 3-0 come September and I figure it's about time. She's worth it.. can't let this one get away! Thanks for all the congrats!

Probably .300 BLK too. As to the OP: Yes.. in .300 BLK. Probably the slowest, ugliest, coolest, most beautiful gun I've ever had the pleasure of laying my hands on. I want it. But priorities is priorities. Can't let this girl get away!

Sadly they are correct. The rifle will still perform flawlessly and give you much more satisfaction than a woman for the rest of your life.

Y'all must have been tangling with the wrong women. Mine never complains when I hunt, fish, drink with my buddies.. She's a pretty good shot, loves to hunt and fish herself... She's tall and beautiful and did I mention WAY out of my league?!

She's tall and beautiful and did I mention WAY out of my league?! I couldn't agree more. Plus she woke me up at 3am last night for fun time. I'll take a good woman over another rifle any day.
