Actually, that's a pretty little rifle. As far as the .40-82WCF being wimpy, it's a great woods cartridge for deer, boar, elk and Black Bear. I have an original 1886 Winchester and original 1895 Marlin in that chambering and it's a killer with smokeless loads and Hawk 270gr. bullets. Naturally, it's not a DG cartridge at all. But, I took an 18 point Whitetail last year with one shot at 70 yds. and he dropped right where he stood...never got up!
