As much as I admire Ron's skill and the perfect rifle he has created, to my thinking, there is no such rifle as one too nice to shoot.  A lot of analogies come to mind......sigh!  Really tasty work Ron.

Ron, I was really expecting that lock I got from you to come all engraved, and my name inlaid in 24k gold script!

Really enjoy seeing your craftsmanship on that rifle.  See ya at Sharonville!

My War Department would have my butt if I took this rifle into the bush ;) What a masterpiece.

"you'd never see me carring something that nice to shoot a pig. SHOW PIECE"

My way of thinking, Life's to short to hunt with an ugly gun. Ron if you need someone to break it right, send that rifle to Alabama, give me and Tim Cosby a week or two and we will have hogs and deer piled up for you. We'll give it that nice warm well used glow that everyone likes to see on a good gun.  ;D ;D ;D 8)

Not being a collector, I see no reason for having a rifle and not shoot it.  Taking it hunting, perhaps, could be a different use, but shoot it, I would.
