Beautiful, reliable, and rugged shotguns. Good luck. Hopefully you'll find one at a great price!

If anyone has some 8x57JS SMKH ammo available, please let me know. Thanks.

It's 100% individual choice. Lead is always more economical and has heavier options over monolithics. I personally don't see myself ever going back to lead but do wish there were some effective non-toxic options available for .22 LR.

225 GR TSX no questions asked. That and or the 200 GR TSX. I don't even know how lead bullets are staying relevant in this day and age especially in hunting situations. I don't know about the meat quality on Alberta bears but I assume you likely won't be eating it however for hunting bears that...

I agree. We need HBN coated factory loads. A HBN coated E-Tip 6.5x55 SE factory load would be amazing.

My first rabbit ever.

However I would be fine with running regular Barnes bullets through it. If I need to run longer bullets, I am fine with the possibility of single feeding.

I shoot all copper so I have the same concern about magazine space. I will consult a gunsmith about a possible conversion to 35 Whelen or 280 AI.

The cartridge I was referring to was the belted magnum 308 Norma not the modern 300 Norma which would obviously be a completely impractical choice.

Are there any other cartridges that would be a more appropriate choice? Such as 280 AI?

I have a Brazilian M1908 large ring pre war Mauser that has a worn and corroded barrel, corroded bottom metal/trigger guard, but the receiver and bolt are in very good condition and operate very smoothly. I have shot this rifle and it does not do well with high BC monolithic bullets. Every other...

Also a .223 Remington single shot survival rifle. 😁

I just realized there was one time I had consumed a starling. Despite the appearance of the bird, it was very tasty.

Interesting! Chicken of the tree is certainly a favorite of many. What was your experience like with the groundhog?

Moose and elk are classic favorites. What specific kind of sheep are you referring to?

I keep hearing about zebra being excellent. Will have to try it someday.

Post about your favorite animal to eat here. Why? What do you like about it? How does it taste? Is it lean or fatty? My personal favorite is dove. I have yet to find anything that tastes better than dove meat. Roasted with the skin on. There isn't much fat, but there is some if a bird has eaten...

Questions that come up are: reloadability, how clean does it burn, barrel life, and if the extreme velocities will cause copper bullets to pencil through animals without expanding.

My budget will determine how many of these I am able to acquire this year. Likely one or two, but I'd like to expand my collection with the following: 1. .17 HMR bolt action to replace my 22lr. 2. 6.8 Western, 7 inch twist factory Browning rifle. 3. A compact and threaded factory 7mm...

Love Baikals. I use my 12 gauge O/U for EVERYTHING!
