Bought a rifle last week. I retired my steady Marlin 336 lever action 30-30 last year from hunting duty. I’m going to pass it down to my boy one day. Needed another hunting rifle so I picked up a used 30.06 Remington 770 for cheap. And spotted a rifle I’ve wanted for a while. It’s hard to find.
It’s a Ruger American Ranch chambered in 7.62x39. Yes, the AK47 round. Soft point ammunition can be bought for $390 for 640 rounds. You won’t find a cheaper hunting round for large game. Equivalent to the 30-30 on knock down power. Uses the Mini 30 magazine so have the option for 5,10,20 round capacity if the need arises. Still haven’t told my wife I actually bought two guns lol. Once a scope is on it it will blend in with the herd. I think it’s going to kick with the bolt action and 16 inch barrel!! Should make a good cheap shooting rifle to have around.

I am expecting snail babies in another week or so. My snails have layers three clutches of eggs. Nice tank cleaners they are. This tank is planted with small plants I took from my wife’s tank. They grow slowly but like pot, once established they explode into new growth.

I went with the Ranch version for the detachable mag. Pops has the same rifle as you and he speaks highly of it. It’s got some knock down!!

Mine has a detachable mag, short light gun. Great for still hunting, which is mostly what I do.
Definitely has knock down to spare.
Hopefully gonna try it out on a Colorado bear this fall.
