AHPP Posted January 12, 2011 Report Share Posted January 12, 2011 What's the difference between this cartridge, .300-221, .300 Whisper etc? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John MH Posted January 12, 2011 Report Share Posted January 12, 2011 Not a lot, same sort of difference between 5.56mm NATO and .223 Remington. There is something commercial behind it I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

c18rch Posted January 12, 2011 Report Share Posted January 12, 2011 Don't tell her. Just put it in the cabinet and don't mention it. If in a few weeks she notices it (which if she is like my wife she won't as she can't tell the difference between a ruger 1022 and a rem 700) just say its the same one you've had for ages.

MalcW? Posted January 12, 2011 Report Share Posted January 12, 2011 Don't tell her. I don't ask about cloths, shoes ,handbags or stuff for the house. I therefore don't expect to be asked about the stuff that I buy. But on your salary what's you worry. Just go and do a few more private jobs, and take her on holiday. I have to ask. Why the cross forum posting? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

terryh Posted January 17, 2011 Report Share Posted January 17, 2011 LH, Think this is a common problem. I saw an article in Precision Shooter, the guy said he painted all his rifles the same colour then just kept moving them around the house to stop his wife being able to count them up .

If only....................! I happen to be quite attached to my bits................ Thank goodness for rifle cabinets, they hide a multitude of sins, though I wish I had bought a bigger one first time around as I am contemplating the purchase of another rifle and have run out of space. Fortunately the rifle I am after looks identical to an existing one so it wont be noticed, but another cabinet will encourage deposition from the dreaded FPO.
