    Well...I *think* I'll still be good on the Rem 700 I want to pick up, so I'm not rushing out for that just yet.

I reserve the right to delete patently offensive comments. Or, really, any comment I feel like. Or I might leave a really juicy comment up for private ridicule. Also spammers.

You can always offend hippies in the comment section. Chances are, those will be held up as a proper example...
