Sooo, not deer and elk, Canadian Honkers?
As a side note, one of the guys that used to deer hunt with us before he passed away was doing his weekend in the Guards in the 60's and he was on the turret of a tank with his .50 on the live fire range, they got in some trouble , several gunners did, but not much in hindsight, made him giggle every time he told the story

You could pretty much shoot either...the secret is in the barrel clamp...ground to air throws a tall oval shot pattern...the ground to ground clamp throws a flat oval pattern....

Did some scope swapping. The anschutz received the vintage Redfield 4x. The Mauser in 35 Whelen got the leupold 3x9. The Mauser is the only gun I ever considered using a black sling on.

Thanks Ron The Whelen has had things going its way lately. Today I was able to score some factory fodder for it. Those TBBC ones I'm very happy to have.
How about this a NIB Lyman sight for a savage 99 my friends dad gave me Christmas Day after dinner at their place. He said he has it for close to 25 years and knew that someday he would find the guy who needed it. It’s on my 1946 300sav.

Moose and elk and bear and snow belong in the same frame with that Mauser.

Didn't seem as though my ammo picture posted either.
Said he know he had more I hope it's the federal.
Im guessing that 35 Whelen ammo can be a valued commodity?
