Yes, it is a Charles Daly Mini, Pac-Nor barrel, and High Tec stock built by Kevin Weaver (Weaver Rifles). It is a petite little thing, I bought it when he had it for sale, for my daughter when she was little. It has limitations like it only holds two rounds in the magazine and feeds reliably, and the mag is too short to use bullets over 100 grains that aren't round nose. I would also like a little more substantial feeling bolt handle, but it would probably look out of place.

We have never killed anything with it, my daughter laid claim to a .300 Savage M700 Classic that I traded for. She wanted desperately to hunt an elk, and she thought it would be better. I usually just use the 06, but I may have to blood that Mini in OK this fall.
