Thanks to mainer_in_AK for starting this thread. A lot of great information here from experience, not regurgitated “internet folklore”. My 9.3 and I are ready for bear season here in the Commonwealth. Little black ones, but that will have to hold me until I get back to Kodiak Island.

That reminds me, I need to put my “excess” Sako AV in 375 up for sale . . . Don’t really need it any longer!!
