[QUOTE="PrairieGhost, post: 274640, member: 704"] Local sport shops loved the 1968 gun bill that stopped us from ordering in catalogs. My dad paid $19.99 for a 6.5x55 Swede. The beat up ones were $9.99, slightly used were $19.99 and unused were $29.99 I wish I had that old 6.5, but it was gone long ago. I did get a model 43 Winchester in 22 Hornet. That old gun takes .223 bullets rather than .224 and they are hard to find. I shot my first deer with that diminutive round and now my son in Montana has it. I may have to beg a couple of shots off him next time I go out. It reminds me of winter walks in deep snow in our pasture with dad. As small as it was it still did a lot of damage to fox furs.
