Morning all. I was sleeping so good until Zoie, my dog, told me it was time to go outside. So here I am half asleep and waiting on coffee.

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 think it was a Savage ,a buddy of mine a country assassin just bought a bolt action 20 ga for deer hunting on the island .
Light and accurate

One of the most accurate rifles I ever shot was a
Type 99 Arisaka,, it fired the 7.7mm

Last rifle I fired was an M-16 in the early 70's. I guess that makes me a city boy.

I've got several tack drivers, but the absloute most accurate is a Remington 700 in .243. I never bought a factory round for it. I bought virgin brass and some boattail bullets. That little bugger will rock.
