    Yeah they are a neat wee rifle. Not as light as you might think. I have had a good play with a mates one, surprisingly good trigger. I'm pretty keen on getting when $$ allow. I like the 16.5" 1:8 twist .308, it would be very versatile. Although I've always had a thing for the 44mag...

    I reckon it would be great for you. You would just have to practice loading and shooting quickly if knocking over lots of goats is your goal.
