Well, that settles it. I pulled the trigger (so to speak) on the 760XLS. I think it'll be a good proxy for the Winchester 62A rifle I have waiting for her.
Based on Unsub's example, I also ordered a chemistry set. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />
Thanks to all for the feedback. I'll post a picture and a thought post xmas after I give (er, I mean she gives) it a workout!
