Something to be said for a shorter rifle in dense underbrush and rough country. The property we're on now is much closer to vertical with well established rhododendron thickets covering much of it. A full-size Garand starts to be a bit heavy and long climbing around here.The thief may possess something he stole, but he does not own it.
The owner has a right to take his property back from the thief.

If you rifle is starting to get heavy it only means you need to get out and exercise more.
I'll have to agree with that. I'm also closing in on 70 with age taking it's toll.
We still have black bear (but no moose thankfully) so I like having an accurate, fast-cycling .30-06 for any close-in surprises.The thief may possess something he stole, but he does not own it.

Had her out on the range for a hundred rnds worth. Remembered why I don't care for the wood handguards, barrel seems to get hot way faster with wood. Replaced it with one of my Black usgi fiberglass handguards. I like that much better. They may look more " period" correct with the wood, but at this point in my life function is way more important. Screw da wood.
