When your new rifle is too beautiful to use for hunting!!

This is like my wife talking about me. Just too nice to take out and use.
They do make sleeves for rifles, like a skin or jacket that you could use if it really scares you but in the end, to me, the memory will be worth the chance you took with it in the bush.

I'm guilty of a beautiful rifle that will likely never hunt while I still own it......(meaning before I pass it on to an heir).......have slowed down my hunting enough that I can't bear to risk a scratch...it's worth more than all the vehicles I owned in the first half of my life....
303’s or 280’s?

That’s like dating a supermodel and not fücking her, might as well just give her to a friend then.
7x57R
I wish they would have kept the classic sporter lines
who the heck is setting these prices? The pieces I see online for $275 look worse then the stuff I can pick up locally for $45.....
At least the figured stuff makes sense - not sure how anything could really ever beat the bottom left one though.

I have 2 rifles that might meet this criteria. One is a Ruger #1 in .303 British. Another is a Winchester Model 70 Featherweight Stainless in 6.5 Creedmoor.
Both get taken out on nice days and I don't haul either through thick brush. That might change as the years go by. But they're both still relatively new to me and I don't wanna mark them up just yet.

I just don't see the point in owning something you can't use. It's actually is a liability if it's of no use. I love quality. Love antiques. But if I can only keep it in a safe or I can't touch it without wearing special gloves I don't want it.
To me the coolest guns are working guns. Guns that earned their keep. Guns that not only made history and have a story but guns that make or made sense.
