You mean like this, C.O.B.?

One of my favorite guns, I have more fun with that on the skeet field than the law should allow. It really upsets Kreighoff 12 ga shooters no end to get bested by the little sweetheart. It's a skeet choke but not a skeet grade 42. It's a deluxe field grade, a lot people get confused with the skeet choke marking on the barrel. The deluxe field grade (with the nicer wood and checkered grip and fore arm) was available in all chokes. A true "skeet grade" had a little better grade of wood and the word skeet stamped on the underside above the serial number on the magazine tube.

The 38-55 is a great caliber and will do a nice job of bringing down a deer. My wife's 92 is in 25-35 and kills a buck about every year with one shot, as does my 94 in 30-30. Of course it helps that we wear old "woolrich" woolens and don't get in tree stands. We're sort of old school.
