new barrel
« on: July 27, 2006, 11:00:54 AM »
Last May I purchased a Handi in 243 for my daughter and after shooting it I have fallen for this little rifle so I will be getting another barrel for it that I can use for myself. I am thinking of either a 308 or a 45/70. Has anyone had trouble with either on of these barrels and what are the pros and cons of them. I will be mainly deer hunting and shooting at the range though someday when the kids are gone I hope to go on one of those Buffalo hunts that I have read so much about. What are thethoughts out there.

I have both, a 308 Handi and a 45-70 Handi......very accurate.......I put the Choate Varmit stockand forends on mine, really helped the recoil..........
