Guess I'm going to throw you a real challenge here Ripp......Keep the old girl as is or rebarrell?
This will certainly be different from your new fangdagled super high velocity jobs that you love so much!
Good to have the 'right' tool for the job.




Plan to keep her as is.. will check the accuracy and see what loads she does or does not like.. will not change anything ..

I hunted with strictly open sights shooting whitetails back on the farm..want to recreate that as best I can..and hopefully teach my kids some of that along the way ..what I consider true core hunting.. open sights..standing or running game.... If I reach my dirt nap having taught my kids that skill, I will be in happy bug breeding grounds..




This is exactly what I did with my son. "Bad weather guns" ie iron sighters, for rainsleetsnow we've always kept a couple iron sighters around for that purpose.

As with a lot of medium calibers, so much noise gets made critical of them with references to failures on big bear and whatnot, but most of what we shoot is just plain deer, and let me tell you, a 200 grain Hornady FP moving out of a .348 Win at 2400 +- fps is a BOMB on them!

What are the Rosary, the Cross or the Crucifix other than tools to help maintain the fortress of our faith in Jesus Christ, the Son of God?
