Hello, I am looking into the whole single shot arena for the first time. I like the look and the idea of the H&R rifles but I have some questions and need some advice.
I am wanting to get a survival set together. Common calibers, simple weapons etc,.. I am pretty much set on a .223 and a .308. I want one of each both will wear low to medium powered scopes and will be used for everything from plinking to putting meat on the table. I want no nonsense, do everything guns.
In planning for the "apocalypse" I am foreseeing the day when the optics break/get damaged or whatever and want iron sights on my rifles as a back up. I guess that is all a long winded way of saying, is there a particular model that can be had in both 223 and 308 and that have iron sights on them from the factory.
I was also looking at the Rossi models, and notice that all of those seem to have iron sights on them. I would love to have the H&R rather than the Rossi, simply because the fit looks better form pics on the websites and the H&R is American made. I do however need specific features and will go where the features are.
Any help or advice would be appreciated.
