 :o
 .17 HM2  (purchased new; with synthetic stock; if the trigger wasn't so sweet, I would/should sell this one)
 .17 HMR  (purchased new, now has lami wood)
 .22 Mag 
 .204  (factory rebarreled Ultra from a .30-06 originally)
 .223
 .243
Zero extra barrels; all have variable power scopes mounted
Looking at this list, all but one have laminated wood; a couple have thumbhole stocks.    2 of 6 were purchased new.   Looks like six is the current total.
Will that bow kill an elk?     Sure.....but arrows are much more effective.

Just bought my first one 3 days ago and sighted in the scope this morning.  It's a .223 Ultra Varmint and I liked it so much that my only problem is trying to decide between adding a 45-70 barrel to this frame or buying the 45-70 buffalo classic!  BTW, The info on this site has already been a great help.

.243, .25-06 Ultra, .45-70, 1 SB1 12 ga..  That's 3 or 4 depending on the shotgun counting.  There are more I want if they become available. 
just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they are not watching you

UPDATE:

115 Handi-holics.

875 Complete Guns.

152 Extra Barrels.

Points 1: Complete Gun = 1 point, 1 Extra Barrel = 0.38 points ( ???).

Average points per handi-holic is now 8.11 points.

50% of the Handi-holics fall between 1.80 to 14.43 points.

So      0 to 1.79 points is an "Intern Handi-Holic".
     1.80 to 14.43 points is a "Handi-Holic".
     14.44 to 20.74 points is a "Senior Handi-Holic".
     20.75 points and above is a "Master Handi-Holic".   ;D



You need to add a couple of more Handi-Holic break downs for those that are in or near the 40 points range.
Or are we just simply called NUTS!!!   :D ;D

UPDATE:

Side note, It amazed me how much OLDER my brothers and sister looked since the last time we were together.  Of course me being the oldest (in years) I looked the Youngest (must be the Handi life).

Zombiekiller:
You will find that this is the best forum on the net for people and info.

Kennyd:
Shotguns count, they are Handi too.

LONGTOM:
You are absolutely right.

fredster22:
Way to go!

troyboy:
Don’t fight the Handi-Holicism.

LONGTOM:
Someone needs a calculator.

newdad:
Thanks.

streak:
Thanks.

FLNT4EVR:
Thanks.

ronp:
Thanks, and yes you do.

JustShootin:
Really nice starter set.

Markus:
We looked; no one is smarter.

Ipyrek:
Thanks.

OK here it is…

131 Handi-Holics

946 Complete Guns

176 Extra Barrels

Using 1.00 points for a complete gun and 0.38 points  ??? for an extra barrel.

Average is 7.7 points.

NEW requested Chart to measure Handi-Holic-ism.

2      Intern Handi-Holic
8      Average Handi-Holic
14      Journeyman Handi-Holic
20      Senior Handi-Holic
26      Master Handi-Holic
      
38      Terminal NUTS Handi-Holic

The only number that surprises me is the 176 extra barrels. I would have thought it would have been higher. I hope the powers at Remington take notice. The folks here take this seriously and know what they are talking about and have actually put there hard earned$ up for more than a few of these guns. It doesn't take a genius to realize the value of this forum for marketing and R&D. They should cut Bill a big FAT check.

Don't need a calculator, it's just getting harder to keep track of which barrels have been added to a frame and which are still homeless!
I unloaded the Handy safe once already to check and really don't want to do it again.
They all fit in there fine the first time!!!   :-\ ??? :D

I just did some quick calculations and this bunch of Handiholics have about a quarter million ($250,000) plus in Handi's and extra barrels, not counting sights, scope rails and scopes, and replacemnet and upgraded stocks. That works out to an average of about $1,940 per Handiholic. I believe with the added value of upgraded stocks, sights, scopes and scope rails, and other H&R items brings the average Graybeard Outdoors Handirifle owner to an average value point of about $2,000 each. Not your average bear!!!....<><....:)

I also need to add my Sidekick .50cal to that list... It wears a Burris 1.5x5 Signature scope... The day I cash in, SOMEBODY's gonna have there hands full... of handi's. ::) ;D ;) ;D
