Thanks Dugaboy,
Yes, I had thought that might be the way of it. Being a Beretta fan, I have a soft spot for any technology they embrace.

As to the lion, I was just using it as an analogy. Since they don't let us bring any big cats into Oz, a buffalo might be the only big-five game I could justify.

Also, thanks New Guy, I'll hope for a rifle with less wood up front.
