His favorite rifle was named Lucretia Borgia and it was a .48 caliber breech loading Springfield which he claimed to have killed 4,250 buffalo with in a single twelve month period.
One of his friends hit him on the head with a rifle.
go to the newest edition of the "Shooter's Bible".
The Soviets claimed that the effective range was around 3 kilometers. Your rifle has probably seen better days, and depending on whether or not you have a scope you can probably hit targets a little under a mile off
He called it Tick Licker. Claimed he could shoot a tick off an animal's back without harming the animal.
Refer to the "Shooter's Bible" on firearm values; however, those particular rifles are extremely common...versions are still being offered in National Rifle Association magazines at NEW and UNUSED conditions.
The NRA claims they have 5,000,000 dues paying members.
I feel this rifle was made by O. F. Mossberg and co. an old line American company still in business. I bought a barreled receiver froma local auction that was just marked "trailblazer' ion the barrel top. Comparing it with my early two piece bolt mossberg model B rifle, it is identical.
