[QUOTE="roaddog1m, post: 471843, member: 21260"] I have hunted my entire life. My Dad hunted, his Dad hunted and virtually everyone I know hunts (even my girlfriend). Also, where I hunt the temps can drop down to -26 below zero plus winds at 20-35mph. While it's not exactly the antarctic, it gets pretty extreme some days. I have never, nor has anyone I know, taped their barrel shut. Keeping the end of your barrel out of the mud and snow just goes without saying. (I thought) If a person stays upright and sober, you shouldn't have any problems with barrel obstructions. It is fun to test one rifle against another sometimes but I don't think I would purchase one weapon over another just because I think it's possible that I might ram a wedge in the end or weld it shut someday. I have lost count of how many guns I own. (seriously) I handload my ammo and I shoot everything including black powder, black powder cartridges, smokeless cartridges from .22LR, .223, 22-250, 243 Win, 6-06AI, 6.5 Grendel, 7-30Waters, 270 Win, .308 Win, 45-70 Gov. (not including shotguns and pistols) and I've never once thought that someday I'd buy another rifle based on which one takes the most stupidity to blow it up. On a side note, I saw your list of guns and they are pretty impressive. I'd like to have a Sako someday myself. [/QUOTE]
