Another Trip To The CANDY SHOP
« on: August 24, 2008, 10:02:06 AM »
We made another trip over to our local candy shop today just to see what he had to offer.
Picked up some more 204s and a couple of used scopes cheap.
He had a real nice ENCORE stainless with a 26" custom shop 220 swift barrel with Leupold mount for $429.00.
I don't have this caliber and was very tempted.
Then I spotted a new sportster in 17HMR that the shop had mounted a new BUSHNELL 3x9x40 on with a syn. stock.
The HX serial # makes it a 2007 if I am not mistaken.
The price out the door was $159.00 with my choice of 1 box of ammo.
The ENCORE was cheep with a custom shop barrel but, I have a RUGER BLACKHAWK in 17HMR and thought that it needed a companion when we went on those little squirrel hunts so I saved some money and came home with another H&R!
I just love going to the CANDY SHOP!!!!!

You are so right, it is a single six!
I have a bad habit of calling them all blackhawks.
Actually I have another bad habit and it showed its ugly head again today at the candy shop.
I saw it and I GOT TO HAVE IT!!

Thanks man for the correction!
