I've been shooting for about 53 years or so, and handloading for a little over 30. Just bought my first bolt rifle since 1975, and only the third I've ever owned. I've picked up a Model 12FV when Cabelas had them on sale for $320.00 in 6.5 CM. I can't believe how this thing shoots. I've mostly been loading and shooting for handguns, my AR15, and my AR47. My assistant at work is a member in the club at Quantico and I've been his guest a few times and am having a blast. I have a feeling this is going to get me in trouble with my wife some more, but I think when I get my own membership I can get her down there and it'll all be good.
