A Savage Model 10 in .243 my dad bought from Wal-mart in 2005. I have killed a pile of deer and hogs with that rifle, and my nephew killed his first deer with it a few weeks ago. It's still the most accurate rifle I own, despite my newer rifles being thousand dollar guns with much better scopes.

I’ve always said, and still believe, the .270 Savage 110 I got in 1994 is the most accurate rifle I’ve ever owned. My son shoots it now and it’s still a tack driver. Amazing from a Walmart purchased rifle for probably $249.

Hearing from people in the know that it was suicide BUT he was not on a hunt. He had already returned from the hunt with his son and father.

I've flown to New Zealand and Canada several times with a $60 Plano and it's done fine.

I would honestly like to see the bust rate of college picks in rounds 1-10 vs. high school picks in rounds 1-10. Would be interesting to see.

I've seen it. It's mind boggling at how many more early round college players make it and high school kids don't. I was very surprised.

Casino games have nothing to do with it. And your wife must have a hose!

I love arguing on the Internet. By post 15 everybody is a jackass, dipshit, dumbass, and idiot.

I understand that any throw anywhere anytime can go wrong, but it's not good odds.... you clearly don't understand that and neither does Cain

Better odds of Breaux scoring than two lefties getting back-to-back hits off Short. That's why he sent him.

With Short on the mound?

Fraley coming up and it's a lefty/lefty matchup. That runner is gonna be sent every time. He'll take his chances of the CF making a bad throw, catcher bobbling the ball, etc. With 4 outs left in the game they're going to send the runner every time. Whether right or wrong. It didn't work out this time. If the throw would've been up the first base line and Breaux scores to tie the game, are y'all still saying he shouldn't have sent him?
