special rifles. i have a couple of Ruger M-77 actions sitting in my safe gathering dust and it's time to build a rifle out of them. My question is what caliber?
Just to see where your heads are these days after being inundated with 6.5 everything for the last couple of years, if you were to buy a rifle these days, what caliber would it be? And a pox be on any that utter the words 6.5. But seriously, what caliber rifle would you buy should you do so these days?
