I agree with you there Rowdy. as I've said before, I have a couple of cut-down rifles in carbine configuration, and I love them! Light, easy handling, fast loading, and fairly accurate out to 100 yards or so...definately a deer getter. We're getting into the area of which gun to use on a given day of the gun deer season now.
I'll just assign a number to each gun and draw numbers out of a hat each day
