As I get older the more I think we tend to use too much gun on almost everything, and fishing tackle thats too heavy on almost everything.
I haven't shot an antelope since 1992 with anything bigger than a .223


Course, Winchester didn't chamber the .223 in its classic lever guns grin


A .219 Zipper in a model 64 would just about be perfecto! laugh


Not as good as a 222 mag in a model 1895...
