It is a 22" barrel. I've no access to barrel program so i must buy rifle and they are scarce. Seem that they won't be imported, no more !. I'll probably stop now, 308w is a good caliber but here a lot of paperwork needed for it. I dream of a 45acp Handi but it didn't exist.
The more i look, touch, use them. The more i love them. They are simplicity, even a falling block (and i dream about) look sophisticated beside.
I'll put a scope one it, better for my eyes. I bought a Leupold FXIII 12x, but i feel that a "simple" peep-sight could be enjoyable.
Paul, you are right. I'll put a suppressor on it, and somewhere it's a shame. I like this barrel, thick as 12ga and a nicely recessed crown. But the suppressor will permit me to shoot it more !. It's a removable part, so time to time i'll hear his loud voice, neighborhood also.
Feel free to help, all your advices are welcome ( i may or may not follow them, i could also forget, that's life :-) ).
Finally i'll fit a bipod and eventually a monopod to increase stability for paper punching.
This nice rifle probably never have a chance to do what it had made for: hunt and kill with one precisely adjusted shot in the respect of the game.
Ian,
i'll try your idea with 2 or 3 "paper" targets. It could help to punch more X and spare good lead in the same time
