[QUOTE="436, post: 479776, member: 16609"] Biggs300, I would have to agree the 45.70 is a great back up rifle anywhere. I have a M71 in .348 Win I've used for years as a back. But when I really want "light carry rifle" as the back I still use my {1943} M94 .30 30 Win. or my (1970) M94 in .44 Mag. As for the scope comment; try a set of Williams [B]FP-94/36[/B] receiver peep sight with a new fiber front, you'll pick up the accuracy and dump the weight of the scope. Leave the smaller peep in when your in a little more open country, unscrew it and take it out when your hunting the thick dark areas for faster shot’s, it make a good ghost ring when the peep aperture is removed. Here's a thread of a few of my deer rifles and back up rifles. [url=http://ImageEvent.com/swat/1903m96k31]1903 M96 K31 with Deer rifles[/url] Good luck 436 [/QUOTE]
