Hmmm...

Just three guns huh? That makes it a bit tough. I'll take a stab at it though. Since I live out in the country on very flat terrain, the area is largely irrigated fields and pasture, I have very little in the way of cover/concealment. I may have to engage targets out to much farther distances than my urban friends will. As such, this has influenced my decision.

1. Scoped/sporterized P17 Enfield in .30-06. I have shot this rifle at distances out to 600 yds. If I work up a 1000 yd zero, I can cover the irrigation ditch and defend the western approach to my property.

2. Rem 870. 12 Gauge with 00 Buck is a whole lot of ugly bad news out to about 50 yards or so. Also, it can be loaded with other shells for different purposes.

3. Sig P 220. .45 acp. Enough said.
