I wish I could announce my own purchase of a BIG BORE DR right now in my 300th post, but mucho money is going toward college tuition for my 1st born. I am sure you all support me in how I have PRIORITIZED things.  Jack OH GOD! {Seriously, we need the help.} | ||

Family always comes first! However, don't fret, just look around and find a good 400, or 450 cal black powder double rifle to play with. They can be had for a fraction of the cost of a Nitro proofed rifle, and make very good deer rifles. I have a little Westley Richards hammerless ejector double rifle chambered for 500/450#1 Express that I only paid $2100 for, with it's fitted case, and brass and dies. So it can be done. you just have to do a lot of shopping, and hitting Gun shows!   ....Mac >>>===(x)===> MacD37, ...and DUGABOY1 DRSS Charter member "If I die today, I've had a life well spent, for I've been to see the Elephant, and smelled the smoke of Africa!"~ME 1982 Hands of Old Elmer Keith  | |||

BigFive: You have your priorities in order. I too am in your boat with college savings for my 18 month old. Glad I started with a life insurance policy and a 529 College savings plan when he was first born. For just $100 a month into my son's life insurance policy (with an investment vehicle), he'll have close to $80,000 by the time he finishes college. That and the $$$ we put into his 529 plan should cover most of the costs for his college. That's the number one reason I haven't been to Africa nor am I planning on going anytime soon - priorities. 577NitroExpress Double Rifle Shooters Society Francotte .470 Nitro Express  If stupidity hurt, a lot of people would be walking around screaming... | |||

Look at it this way, when you put your child through college and he/she gets that great job, he/she can buy you a double.  Cory Still saving up for a .500NE double rifle(Searcy of course) | |||
