It's always fun deciding which rifle to use in deer season. I have one tag remaining, took a buck and doe with a crossbow the first week of October and a doe with the in-line the third week of October. I'll either use the Sharps saddle ring carbine in .50-70 or Springfield "trapdoor" rifle in .45-70. Both with my own made black powder and cast bullets. I'm leaning more towards the Sharps as it is much handier on stand than that long legged trapdoor.
Frank, go with the Mannlicher you procured a few months ago!! Hemingway would approve.
