i did it again
« on: November 22, 2008, 07:37:20 AM »
i bought a new .223 ultra varmint.

i had one a few years ago (just a handi-rifle in .223) and like a 'dummy' i sold it...(needed $$$$$ at the time)

my wife told me to select a new rifle for CHRISTmas this year.

the local gunshoppe had the NEF ultra varmint in a package deal that included the BSA sweet 223 scope and a harris bipod all sitting in their synthetic stocks; it was too much for me to bear so i selected it. i always regretted selling the old one. it was a 'tack driver'

kinda off topic but i appreciate how you made sure you put the CHRIST in CHRISTmas. wish others in the world would do the same.

Good point. using CHRISTmas just shows your not proud of being a Christian

Sounds good, now of course a range report is mandatory when you get time!  :D

It aint the holiday season without CHRISTmas. I hope your CHRISTmas present brings you many happy memories.
99% of all Lawyers give the other 1% a bad name. What I find hilarious about this is they are such an arrogant bunch, that they all think they are in the 1%.

thanks guys...i certainly hope to give a range report soon (gotta wait 15 days to pick up here in california  >:()

i always regretted getting rid of my other handi...it was a pleasure to shoot and would hold groups of nickel and quarter size at 100 yards with  no problem even using factory ammo. i guess i was lucky as i did nothing to the rifle...it was standard.

i'll be "tickled pink" if this one performs as well.
