[QUOTE="HunterMann, post: 2704904, member: 117098"] Wow have things changed and evolved... When I was a kid, the farm manager's truck gun was a Universal 30cal carbine with a peep sight. He shot all kinds of varmints, rabbits, even sand hill cranes with the standard mil surplus ball. Very little meat damage on the rabbits and birds he took. He had built a jig onto a grinding wheel that would just open the nose of that 30cal ball ammo. Those modified rounds he used quite successfully on larger things up to and including the local deer. He kept loaded magazines of each round in the glove box and carbine tucked in behind the seat. My only previous experience was popping cans or paper with a BB gun and a 22 single shot and I thought this carbine was just the coolest thing ever. Probably started my lifelong interest in rifles of all kinds. [/QUOTE]
