[QUOTE="CaptnC, post: 1411796, member: 101755"] Built the wife a rifle last year, she was never even around them before. She was a little resistant, but didn't say much as it was coming together. After taking her first deer (and her 2nd, 3rd and a hog) she is like a new person! I told her last week that I was building her another and ask if she wanted to pick out the color and stlye of the stock...she was at the computer like a flash! She has little hands so a thumb hole was out. She ended up wanting a Boyds Pro Varmiter....in Zombie Hunter! I picked the caliber because she doesn't know anything caliber and recoil. Her first rifle 6.5-06 has a break so no felt recoil. 6.5 Creedmoor Took me a while to drink the coolaid, but I did. This will be the 5th 6.5mm to go into the safe in the last 10 months! So I've fought a long hard battle to not do a Creedmoor... I was weak!:confused::D:D [/QUOTE]
