About 15 years ago I built a 250 Savage on a large ring Mauser- very short stock, 4X scope etc. Both of my sons learned to big game hunt with it; killed a couple elk and several deer a piece. I dusted it off today and my grandson used it to kill a Black Hawaiian ram this morning. One shot at 92 yards. My son decided he wanted to give it a run again and shot a ram too. Good times. If posted pics on here wasn't such a chore I would put one up.

I used factory ammo from some company in Montana since you can't buy brass anymore. Still a good low-recoil killer!
