An old friend of mine asked me to put together a pair of rifles for him and his wife to just grab and go if the need ever arose. Requirements were easy ammo availability, light weight, scoped, reliable and easy to maintain. He has an all in budget of $5000. He does tend to like the nicer things in life. I thought I would seek the combined knowledge of you erudite THR folks. He did mention not having to rely on batteries. I have an idea of a package to recommend, I just wanted another set of brains to cogitate on this with me. What say you?
