Drillings, Combo's, Paradox's...

A mulling-it-over ranking for me would be as follows:

Jungle Guns: Maybe later, for that sentimentalist thing... The problem is I really don't see them as 200 yard elk guns and even I would be loath to scope one, and a scope would be more-or-less essential for my hunting.

Combo's/Drillings: Yes, either one. As for practicality both sound super, both come in excellent calibers and both seem to be out there.

I say "seem" because the drillings are often IMO overpriced and the combos are less available. I really have to mull over whether I want a modern gun or a nice-condition GI WW2 "Bring-Back". I've been surfing the net and man do some of those '30's-built guns look nice, but servicing if broken might be a problem, but then again I suppose a moden gun like a Blaser might not be much easier to service in reality?

Anybody have experience with any of the Blaser combos?

I suppose if practical was all that was necessary, Zimhunter's CZ would fit the bill perfectly and a guy would fail a sobriety test if he didn't jump at the chance to grab a drilling laid out like Xausa's and NE450No2's!

As for caliber layout, Peter's 12x12x9.3x74R seems just to order, but all those 7x57R cases down in the basement seem lonely without a gun to shoot them in...
