    great to hear you have a happy outcome.
    I have different rifles in my cabinet.....some like the .223 /.270/ .308 are nice tack drivers even though they have been used as bush bashers over the years.
    the wee short cheap norinco bisley however might be but Ive never taken time to find out....3" at a hundy is more than enough for her as its only ever a 150 yards cartridge,snotted a boar 2 weekends ago with it,on the run at 50 yards.....did the job with help from the dog to track it down and finish it off.
    the stag I shot same day at 192mtrs with big rifle just fell over after a couple of wobbly steps...relative accuracy. up close not needed,out further vital.
    the .45/70 insert will be a 50 yard proposition and Im happy with that....its what I got it for,bush ranges on wet days.
