[QUOTE="jkupper, post: 876736, member: 61637"] MAN!!! That is even more than I would have been able to dream that they would have gone up. I guess that shows how long I have been out of the game. Long range hunting is expensive, but there are more expensive shooting sports for sure! Okay, back to the single shot discussion... If those single shot rifles are able to be disassembled and reassembled and still maintain that kind of accuracy then the workmanship must be beyond good! I would love to see one in action. Another thing that I noticed is the amount of drop in the stocks for the guns you mentioned. Will they build a straighter stocked gun that would accommodate a scope better? It seems like it would be very difficult to maintain a good cheek weld, and as a result I would expect that one would get a pretty good welt on the cheek if you shot it very much/often. Boy, they sure are pretty guns though!!!! On a side note, we currently have a foreign exchange student from Norway. I asked her where Buskerud is, in response to your 8mm thread. She lit up as she was reminded of home. Apparently her family has a summer home in the region. We visited about hunting (she is not a hunter), but I asked if she and her family would ever put me up to stay if I could manage to go on a moose hunt there. She said sure. I may have to look you up if that ever comes to fruition. [/QUOTE]
