I insisted on paying for it, but he said how about I lend it to you and just forget to ever get it back??. Good bugger that man.

@AlwaysLearning
I apologise for my presumption. Had I known better I would have said "a worthwhile thing for a young WOman"
Actually I read your post as the comments of an enthusiastic young man who had just won something like Lotto but obviously I was a bit too quick in my thinking.
Young man or young lady, it's good all all round, especially if they are taking up the grand tradition of shooting and / or hunting. Over the last few years I have been heartened seeing the growing numbers of ladies coming into the shooting / hunting arena. It must soon reach a point where the ladies will start keeping us guys honest I reckon. Please don't rub it in too hard if you become a top shot. Despite some guys appearing quite bullet proof they can have quite deflatable egos if shown up by a lady's better shooting
And, as some here have asked, please post photos of the 30.06 if you decide to accept the kind offer. Actually, photos of any other interesting hunting gear ( dogs, packs, tents, vehicles, boats etc ) are welcome anytime. Oh, and if you want to include yourself in any pics, that's OK - haha
Anyway, enjoy making your decision and hope it all works out for you. Cheers.
