I'm fortunate enough to be working in Alabama for five months later this year and figured I'd make the most of hunting an new country whilst there. Unfortunately I'll not be able to use a firearm, so it would all be bow hunting. Can anyone give me an idea of what the public land and wildlife...

I'm considering purchasing a Merkel 141 in 9.3x74r, however I am sceptical about the weight of the rifle (~3kg) in such a calibre. Has anyone shot this rifle in 9.3x74r before and if so, how was the handling and recoil? Or would I be better off waiting for a Merkel 140 (4.6kg) to come up on...
