LOL! I’m talking small game here.

I wish Ruger would make the .22LR SP101 with a 6 inch barrel.

My Iver Johnson 50 looks like this, except mine is in much, much better shape:



Shoots real nice, too!

What happens if a 300-700-lb hungry black/grizz wanders into your area, intent on making a meal of you? I always carry my Beowulf .50cal w/ .350-.400gr loads in 11-rnd mags (3-4 extra mags in tactical vest).

My 1974 Colt Trooper MKIII .357Mag is just window dressing against a PO’d grizz at 50-75yds, if they charge. Only happened once and I ended that quickly.

My Class III AR-15s/AR-10s & Barrett .50 BMG are for longer range duty.
