Karsten and all,

Do not sink to the level of some people out there and do not fear them, no disrespect. You do not have to buy a Remi 700 to be popular, it is not the gun, it is the shooter. You could have a $1000 rifle set-up, but if the rifleman is a awful shot and does not hit what he shoots-at, the $1000 rifle is worthless. Gun people, collectors, and beginning gunners, believe you need to buy a brand name firearm to belong to a group, you do not. Is like if I buy a Ruger P-97 .45ACP instead of a HK USP or Glock or 1911 .45ACP, I get flame over that, screw those people. If you feel confident of what you have, and the gun shoots well in your hands, do not worry of the others. Cool

Just thought I let you know how I feel.
