The 2020 Rule...

[kimh]

1. take the sum of 79 Rifles
2. minus your age
3. add 40 Rounds of ammo
4, equals the year you were born!!
5. If true, buy a new Rifle and that's the 2020 Rule

Works for me, will do

I've got slots for 6.5 and .44, so thats a bolt action long range rifle or lever action carbine to choose between.

Miles off for me!

Drats! One year out. No toy for me.

 

[bobjs]

Maybe you forgot a birthday somewhere along the line? Have another go, and if it still doesn't work buy a new rifle anyway.

(Works for me, btw).

79-49+40=70. I was born in '71.

Hmmmmmm...
That's got me thinking.....
Perhaps it's me that's missed a birthday somewhere along the line....
I think I'd better check my birth certificate, do a few calculations, and have another go....

.... But perhaps not until after I've bought the rifle, just in case

I wonder if it worked in 2019 and now it should be 80 instead of 79 now we are in 2020

Well I've checked, and it definitely works for me at the moment, but once I've had my birthday it won't.
However, I reckon doing the dishes every night for a couple of months is far more likely to result in an opportunity to purchase a new rifle.

 

[Sampo]

What if I have already bought a rifle in 2020 and the formula doesn't work out? Worried that my missus will make me return the rifle

 

[Boosh]

How the hell?

 

[User00025]

Works ok, now where's that nice little Hornet I want.
As I'm so old I might go back to my youth.

 

[wildfowler1]

How the bloody hell does that work .Spot on for me. Wf1

 

[kripton]

Would be dead on at the end of the year (birthday in November = 79-80+40) but don't think I will wait until then -just in case!!

 

[Fiadh]

A year out, I'll have to resign a new rifle to the wish list for another year!

 

[sh1kar]

or check again after your next birthday!

Barsteward.......spot on.......didn’t need reminding of how many birthdays I’ve had, but if l sell what l don’t need l can generate loads of variations for 2020, that’s the way forward for me !
