WoW! Lucky you. That was an awesome price. I sure love the Finnwolf. Your Dad is a lucky guy, taking care of it for you.:p
 
Ruger M77 with a 4 digit serial number. Will put bullets through the same hole at 100 yards. Many have offered to buy but it will never be sold.
 
It won't get sold, although it'll probably turn into a 6.5 Creedmoor once this barrel is toast. It's not the most pleasant rifle to carry for 12 miles in a day, although I've done it. It's a 1-2 mile, open country carry rifle, ideally ;)

My Savage 11, in .243 Was thinking of selling it actually, but for now its in the safe awaiting next winter for coyotes.


Shoots like this at 300 yards since i changed out the heavy trigger to a Timney trigger.






I think that is good enough for yotes.
