I read through 7 pages, got the gist of the thread and then skipped to the end. I used to own a Rolex I bought new around 1992. I enjoyed wearing it for about 15 years and then I sold it. I now own 5 Omegas and a Breitling. I wouldn't mind owning another Rolex but the quality of their watches in...

I'm a simple man. CZ550 Ruger M77 Win M70 In that order.

Cooper rifles have to have the magazines tuned to each individual rifle. When I wanted to buy extra magazines for my 9.3x62 & 300H&H I had to send the rifles back to the factory to have that done. IIRC it was about $90 @ magazine plus tax & shipping.

Any combo that includes a 300H&H is perfection in my opinion. Very, very nice rig. Congrats to the new owner and the seller.

Dual citizenship here. I didn't renounce a damn thing and I served on active duty for 21 years. Had security clearances too. Never an issue for me in any way.

Big/medium bore rifles have their own unique desirability. The report and recoil are integral to the experience. I understand why some folks want to suppress smaller hot magnums but anything .375 and up should be enjoyed as they are.

I had Ruger Africans in 275 Rigby, 6.5x55 Swede and 9.3x62. I sold all of them to different members here on AH. Glad I got to own them and I'm glad they were sold to people that would really appreciate them. I don't spend any time worrying about the value of guns I used to own. I've never...

Any ejection issues clearing the scope?

Ruger bolt actions are excellent rifles that are no more or less prone to problems than any other rifle. I've owned dozens of them and never had a functioning problem at all. Ever. 223 to 375H&H. You hear the same complaint about CZ too and while I haven't owned dozens of them the dozen or so I...

@SkullKeeper, Thanks!

If no one claims it before midnight Monday I'd like to have it please.

These are the ones that made the cut: 22WMR .223/5.56 25-06 7x57 7x64 308 30-06 300H&H 9.3x62 9.3x74R 375H&H 404J

I've had a couple and I'm a big fan but I no longer own one. The 6.5x55 was a casualty of me wanting to cut back to only a few calibers. It was one of the last to go.

I too have owned or still own all four and in my experience the Kimber was the least desirable of the bunch. In fact the Kimber is the only one I don't still own because of how unreliable it was.

CZ, Winchester & Ruger are a no go but a Kimber is okay? I get wanting a 'nice' rifle. I own a couple myself but there's absolutely nothing wrong with a CZ, Winchester or Ruger big game rifle.
