    Needs more use but replaces the FR8. Nice and short but hits hard

    still reckon a SxS Bakail in .45/70 just about has to be the perfect scrub rifle...... the best barrel /most accurate/closest to sights with hot load and 2nd a lighter load,maybe a cast jobbie. or vice versa....good accurate cast load with hot one for quick 2nd shot if needed.

    For straight out close range bush stuff my Rossi 357 carbine would be my go to. If it was for big animals and the potential to go a little further out I reckon my lee speed 303 clone will be my pick up.

    I can't play, but I'd love a Bergara single shot in 300 blackout, suppressed to be used with subsonic rounds. Plus the hunting opportunities to use something like this!
