Your Favorite Rifle.

Still haven't decided. One of the 22 rfs around here; I guess the caliber and all of the fun I have had with them. For big game, the old .338 Win has not let me down in the last 35 years. It took everything I pointed it at. Only used two shells on one elk to keep it from getting into a very bad canyon. I had let a fellow hunting with me have the first shot and I was shooting at escaping elk. Broke an old cows front shoulders with the first shot but she was wheel-barrowing toward the drop-off. Shot her again high in the shoulders to stop the flow of impulses to her rear quarters. Sure did raise heck with the front half.
