Some of you dear posters may have read my recent posts whereby I exclaim that I am sold on purchasing a .44 lever action for Christmas. I intend it for those "society has broken down for a few weeks" sort of scenario. I recently debated the qualities of the .44 mag versus the 30-30.
Now here's my dilemma: a poster pointed out the pump action Remingtons, which I dutifully researched. I'm now aware that I can pick up a .270 or .308 or .30-06 in an 18 inch, detachable mag pump carbine. So I say to myself: "Archangel14, why would you not consider one of these rifles for your probably never-to-happen scenario? They're compact, carry more than enough punch, inexpensive, apparently reliable? Oh, and why you're at it, why don't you consider dropping 15 pounds, you fat twinkie eating freak?"
So I lay it out on you guys.....what am I to do? Should I go with a pump in .270? That'd make a great gun for my purposes, no? I can put a flash hider on it and paint "Archangel14 Rocks" on the stock!
