Congratulations!

I don't hunt flea-infested tree rodents nor other small game, but that is indeed a great price for one of those scarce CF Savage O/U combo guns!

When trying .22 rimfire loads, do you ever try .22 Shorts with your scoped guns? Several target-type Short loads are available that aren't too pricey.

Also, what .410 load works best for squirrels at 'normal' hunting ranges?
