What's your white whale?

Mine is one of the near-mint condition k31s i saw on the racks of my LGS what feels like 10 years ago the day i made my first ever firearm purchase.
i remember holding one and thinking "man this thing is weird" at the time i had no idea how the guy in the shop could be so proud of them. now i understand
like the fool i am i walked out with a ruger 10/22 instead.
I've never seen them that nice again

My most recent whale was a M77 Mk2 6mm, which now sits in the safe. Thought I might be done but what's the fun in that.

I have 17-323 cals so maybe I need a 35? How about a M77 mk2 ss 350RM, ya that will be my new one for now.
Another one is a rem 40x rimfire sporter, Maybe a kimber rimfire? A sako in 280?

Most of the rarer ones can be found aross the line with some digging around, with the dollar the way it is now and tack on import fees you better be serious.

I'm always on the lookout for Winchester Model 70 Classic DBM's. I've only ever seen 3 of them, and have purchased 2. Makes me think I should go back and buy the 3rd.
 
Wickliffe 76............my God I had nearly forgotten that rifle...........

Another I might entertain would be a Wichita rifle with the nice wood and full octagon from bolt shroud to muzzle in likely a 243...................
 
DAMN THIS THREAD. It got me thinking about my above listed White Whale....................A P08 Luger. Well, thanks to "lugercollector" my white whale is going to be on it's way soon. I'll update with pictures when available. Kind of scared really for it to actually come. Mainly because I have lusted for one since I was 8 and I am now 44. What IF I DON'T LIKE IT??
It might ruin everything for me....................................NAH!! I am going to shoot it a LOT cause that's what it was meant to do.
