A new Handi for $10?
« on: August 10, 2012, 04:22:28 AM »
Nope, that's not a typo.  I was informed this morning that my $10 raffle ticket to raise funds for Breast Cancer was pulled out of the hat for a brand new, scoped 243 Win. Handi. Woohoo!!!

You are going to be mad now when you see one box of ammo cost more than your gun :)

Well, I picked up the  rifle tonight.  Not to look a gift horse in the mouth, but I found it's a Superlight Youth model.  I don't mind the light 20" barrel, but that 11 3/4" length of pull is just plain awkward.  If it looks like it's going to be a shooter, I will have to swap out the shorty stock for a regular LOP.
