Not sure what the lever is in The Man from Snowy River" but it could be any .22,
possibly a 30-30 but I'm not sure what they actually used.

After rabbits, foxes and roos, the next load of animals hunted is Goat and Pig.
243 in one state in Australia is very popular.

You then have all of the deer species. A lot of people go Sambar and Red deer
hunting where the minimum legal calibre is .270, however alot of people use 30 cal
and upwards. The other deer can be taken with 243 and up - Fallow deer, Hog Deer,
Chital Deer etc etc.

The following PESTS are also shot here. Horses, Donkeys, Camels, Dingoes,
Buffalo. Also some of the pigs here (in certain areas) get very big. The problem
is at the moment we have a drought and everything is getting shot out.
