All the big names in wool are high quality and high dollar, definitely an investment and requires some degree of maintenance so they don't get moth eaten.
I own a lot of Johnson woolen mills garments because I went to school there. Small town and that mill was a big part of the community.

Going through it here right now in PA with my mother...I can relate to you all that have loved ones who went through it. Those who poke fun at it obviously haven't been affected. Stay strong folks.
Buy once, cry once...get the Garrett. For what you are trying to do why cut corners? I agree with walkathon, there simply is no comparison between knock off brands and Garrett for detecting itty bitty metal pieces. Garrett pinpointer will serve you well.

I look forward to more community events similar to this that raise funds and awareness for pertinent issues that surface to the point of public opinion and intervention: the good...
As others stated if you don't reload it's hard to beat a "classic" cartridge like .270.... ammo is loaded by virtually every manufacturer with awesome bullets to choose from, and usually something to find locally in a pinch.
I just built a 7x57 for deer around here. Love the history and mauser...
I was wondering, thanks for the clarification and I'm sorry I overlooked that requirement Sytes.
I am encouraged the auction has good momentum going toward a great cause.
Respectfully spirited group: that's why I joined
Regardless I'll make a donation anyway to help the fund.

Thank you, quick background: Most of my experiences have been hunting whitetail in Pennsylvania, Sika deer in Maryland and whitetail in the Adirondaks. I have been fortunate to have spent time and hunt in Montana and Idaho for elk. I lust for the opportunity again which brings me to the forum to...
