John - I think this one would also do a heck of a job on deer, bear and buffalo I think I would really enjoy (i.e. use) a "gray rat" version of this rifle _________________________ http://rossrifle.com/ http://whitney-burgess.com/

saddlering Campfire Tracker Registered: 09/30/05 Posts: 6773 Loc: Michigan, Down River	Yes! mine seemed to, come to my shoulder, the ivory sight, lined up on the game, and fired, before i realy planed on it! sold it on a whem, planned on getting a 45-90, and that deal fell thru, but I went to the savage 99s at that point, so wasnt a bad thing in the long run! still mis that rifle tho! _________________________ Deer Camp! about as good as it gets!
