    I'll take the risk.

    Cool, but I'd still rather a .460 S&W, though I'm told it would need a BLR action in order to handle the power.

    I play rugby too. And stick my hands into the gaping maw’s of HIV and hepatitis patients daily. And patrol meth/pill ridden suburban areas...

    Shooting large calibre rifles is probably one of the lower risk activities I do.

    You need a hobby.

    Most dentists play golf and/or have a mistress. Both of those sound safer than your current life choices.

    Some enjoy their own laughing gas too. Is that stuff addictive?

    For a younger outdoorsman with coin, this rifle--despite its cost--would be a good investment. It would serve admirably as a lifelong companion whenever a short powerful rifle was needed. The action is not solid frame but is open at the top as are 92's and 94's. The rear sight rests on the bolt and thus moves with it. If I were ordering one, I would ask that the receiver be drilled and tapped for an old school Redfield peep sight. That's a preference and not condemnation of the factory's sight on the bolt.

    Golf is a waste of a perfectly good rugby pitch. My wife is 1000x hotter than the most badass mistress you can think of.

    Nitrous oxide/oxygen IS psychologically addictive but has a wicked side effect of causing peripheral neuropathy. I’ve had nitrous twice in my life...once when I got my wisdom teeth out and once in school when we had to practice on each other. It makes me horribly nauseous and dizzy, which makes me vomit. I don’t drink either...and Coke Zero is about as raucous as I get.

    I’m probably not like any dentist you know.
