Found the ideal rimfire for Yotes. Just advertised on our national auction site at a reserve price of $1 and only some measurements given of cartridge and case OAL plus diameter of rim and body. COTW measurements confirms this ammo as 25 Stevens which apparently was quite a good killer for small animals.
There's about 25 odd Yotes worth in that box if you have the rifle.

Interesting. When my buddy's father bought a army-surplus model 1917 Mauser in .30/06 back in the 50's, his neighbours all remarked, "What'd you buy that cannon for, Pete, there was nothing wrong with your Stevens for moose and deer?"
They were referring to his .25.
