How many hunting rifles do you own?

Here's a bored post:
Over the years I've accumulated more rifles than I need for sure but when I was single a married friend told me to buy all the rifles I ever wanted before I got married. He warned that once married, I wouldn't be able to buy any more. That was actually true for me until my kids got older and I had more discretionary income.

two .30 06's,
one .22, one muzzleloader in .50 cal and one 12 gauge shotgun. don't know if you want to count these hunting guns that are not rifles.

Just hunting rifles? No muzzys, shotguns or pinfires? And do I get to count the ones I'm currently working on and/or the ones I've finished restoring/refurbishing that are on consignment at a local pawn shop? Or just the ones I had before I started this crazy (and expensive) hobby?

I was thinking just hunting rifles, excluding muzzy's etc. but obviously some feel threatened by my question. 👁️

Not threatened at all, but just wanted to add some excitement to this "bored post". Afterall, this is the Monster Muleys forum, isn't it?

A few more than I need since the past three years I always seem to grab my boat paddle Ruger stainless in 270Win out of the safe when I go hunting.

I’ve got 2 of those boat paddles in 7mm mag and in 300 win mag. that I haven’t taken out in years. I probably ought to repent.

for,I don't reload might be in the future !
Then you’ll have an even harder time getting ammo. I only reload and I’d be way easier to find factory ammo then the components.

This is of course for other peoples rifle’s since I own none

None left- wife sold them all to buy my Christmas present. She said a numbers matching 68 Camaro SS 396 in pristine condition isn't cheap anymore.

A couple. But……. I got three tanks, perfectly milled to fit your bowling ball. Now that’s a caliber not many can claim. They shoot long range too, that’s a guarantee they come with.

At least one in each caliber between .20 and .358. (Sold my #1 in .458 Lott.) Favorites are 25’s, 28’s, and 35’s. Killed big game with .22, .24, .25, .27, .28, .30, .33, and .35. Probably kill something with a .26 someday. Not sure if I’ll get around to using the .32. ————SS

The weapon that’s trained nearly every American long range hunter and military sniper!!! Great choice J2K.

I'm like JB1975, the more the merrier. (y) My go to gun however is my Remington model 700 ADL in 30.06 (Core-Loks, bitches!) except Cali, of course where I'm forced to use copper.

I bought off my homeboy who got me into hunting. It was his Dad's who bought it after returning from Vietnam in 1970(?) and he didn't hunt anymore and gave to him. I bought it off him when he quit hunting long ago.

Fun thread.

Another question along this topic. Do you guys save all the boxes your guns came in? If so, how do you store them? Wrapped in plastic in attic?
