After 3 shots I had to lay in bed the rest of the day.

Did that 3 times. Never hunted with the gun. Sold it and spent the money on a hunt.

Winchester Model 70 / .338 Win Mag .
I love it , BUT ...
Finding ammo is a 4 leaf clover and
also extremely expensive , if you do
find it .

I bought a H&K SP89 when they first came out. My plan was always a sear host, which I did. If I would have just put it away as a semi pistol, it would be worth 4-5 times what I paid.

Semi belt guns pretty much they have doubled in value. Semi auto belt feds have a way of do that. My guess guy who put together semi 1919 are happy with the value they now command. Price a semi M-60.

I regret not buying the bosses then Ukranian wife's Chappui .375 double with a Schmidt Bender scope. By then I pretty much knew I was done hunting in Africa.

Not a rifle, but a used SPAS-12 shotgun. Bulky as hell.

Just kidding. I bought it.
