    Rifle for daughter

    I have a Mesa in 308. Small, compact, easy to use. It’s a tack driver with 165 gr nosler partitions. I have had great success in Africa with it. It reminds me of the old Remington 700 Mtn rifles when they were good!! I bet the 6.5 creedmore above would be a good rifle for her

    Inertia or Gas Drive Semi-Auto Shotgun?

    If you didn’t fit the beretta to you and go to the pattern board and make sure it was shooting where you were looking it’s not a fair test.
