What to get the Wife?

<< < (2/2)

skydve76:
I already have a mosin with a scope on it.  After looking around, it comes down to these:

DPMS LR-308
Savea 110 BA in 300 Win mag

I am leaning towards the 300 win mag as 308 is basically the same thing as my mosin's 7.62X54R.

The point is to have something extreme and fun, but not practical for anything else other than having fun and making big booms.

I'll keep shopping but other than the scoped mosin, our collection is missing a high powered long range rifle.

I have until July 24. 

Whatever I get her either needs to be really decked out, like an ar-15 with some goodies on it.  Or a really large caliber rifle.  The savage fits the bill.

I will have to go back and compare size differences of the lr-308 and the savage.  If the size isnt too bad perhaps I could live with the 308, if I put a good scope on it and a telescopic stock, with a bipod...

BTW a .50 BMG would be perfect except $5 per boom is just too much for me right now to really enjoy.

We like to go pick up ammo every now and then.  $15-$20 per box isnt bad.  But $50 for 10 rounds, or $100 ro 20 isnt something you can randomly pick up.

I think you should get her an AR-10. Then see if she will let me borrow it now and then.

skydve76:
Ar-10  is cool, but way too high priced.  Anyobody know if a muzzle brake can be put on a lr-308?

skydve76:
She won't back down from the Savage 110 BA in 300 in mag.

Looks like I am going to have to start reloading, I'm sure I can beat the $1 per round price they cost out of the box.

Look for a young cute  woman with a big sniper rifle at Eastern Nebraska gun club, also carrying a colt 1911.  Also know she is married to me and quit staring at her.

Thanks.

gsd:
i guess being a young pup, i'll say it.  Post a pic so i know who to avoid :)

and post a few pictures of the savage so we can all drool the appropriate amount.
