The Movie was Death Hunt was about the Mad Trapper of Rat River! he carried a break down savage 99 rifle! chambered in 30-30
One of my favorite books. I'll have to look for that movie.
Oh, cool. I did not know it was a book first.
Very good book I first read in the '60s... the Mad Trapper of Rat River... it was a huge manhunt and the first to use an airplane to track a guy down. In reality there is no evidence he did anything wrong before the Mounties surrounded him in his cabin and blew it up. And after that he was likely deaf.
Another trapper had claimed he was breaking some law (s) but there was never any proof. They ran him down and shot him, but the physical things he did to get away were astounding.
