Guns, Dogs and Blades QnA
Heading to the range tomorrow to waste some lead and sight in my newest/ old toy. I think that this rifle will be my companion for deer hunting this year. This old girl has a 17 1/2" barrel which makes it light and perfect for busting through the PA brush. I'm working up an accurate load for hunting using 200gr bullets. This rifle is chambered in 9x56 mm Mannlicher Schoenauer. I really get a kick out of using these 100+ year old rifles for hunting and harvesting deer. Half the fun is working up a load for these obsolete cartridges. I'm also taking out S&W replicas to knock down some steel targets. The wife is coming along to get some time behind her S&W 380 EZ.
