It is in .30-30 and it lives on top of of a carpet scrap in the water tank/battery bay of my pickup camper along with enough components to load plinking loads for a five day weekend.

Kills 'em dead it does. No appreciable recoil, either.<br />Gerry N.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12389938.post-24569878114564439742012-09-04T17:47:57.319-05:002012-09-04T17:47:57.319-05:00I'm sure they are nice guns, but with one of t...I'm sure they are nice guns, but with one of the local big box stores selling the Axis and the 770 with scopes for $300 on a rotating sale, I don't think the Handi is competitive.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12389938.post-46435329959346263292012-09-04T10:39:58.388-05:002012-09-04T10:39:58.388-05:00Nice little rifles, no question.
