Shooting at night has its challenges. I started going out at night on a regular basis last winter. It was cold, and the ground was nearly always wet. I got some polarfleece trousers with a...

There'd be a lot of old servicemen and hunters who would smile with satisfaction knowing that you appreciated this rifle. It is part of our heritage.

Ah. What a nice rifle. Good to see the open sights. If your scope ever fogs up, you can smash it off the mounts with a rock and use the reliable irons. Seems like your current ammo does the...
