Moving on Up!
Well, I resisted for as long as I could. Just made the deal today with Ken for the VC 577 Nitro that he had on Gun Broker! Yee Haw! jumping

Way to go Todd! dancing

Double rifles will get you through times of no money better than money will get you through times of no double rifles.

I sent you a separate E-Mail - I talked to Ken yesterday as well. Every time I talk to him I come out a bit poorer.

He is up here tromping around in the woods so he probably will be kicking himself for missing it.

Why not?
That would only delay delivery to Todd by about one day ...

You'll find that 577NE to be more pleasant to shoot than the 500NE

Or maybe the concussive effects from the muzzle blast and recoil cause momentary black-outs

It's one or the other - I really can't remember which ...

Todd,

When you get it take that 1 lb 12 ozs worth of recoil reducers out of the butt and the gun will feel much better.

I prefer to think of it as proven and field tested not "left overs" or "seconds"

I just watched the Global Hunter sequence where Aaron had the charge again. Good stuff.
