Old lever action(same vintage as the venerable nylon 66) with synthetic stock. After age 40, I followed the advice of Jack O'Connor and put a William's peep sight on it. Much faster than a scope, and plenty accurate for head shots up to 4o yds.
I am convinced that i need a 17 HMR, but I haven't decided what rifle to buy....any suggestions appreciated. I have to admit that when cat squirrels are active in high river bottom trees, that I am at a disadvantage to someone using a scattergun. |
