I've got some for hunting Mr. Moose;

A Fazakerly made in 2/45. My thirteen year old daughter claimed, got her first moose year before last with it.

I like them too;

Another 1945 Faz.

A 1942 BSA Maltby with a two groove bbl, my Faux 4T, a parts gun.

1943, SA Super Collosal from "The Garand Guy". I have killed two moose with it. Woops a gas gun, just scroll past. (or it is a bolt when I open the Shuster Adjustable gas plug all the way and cycle the bolt by hand)

My first dedicated kick around in the boat, drop in the sand on a rainy day moose gun. A Model of 1917 Winchester that loves 220 gr. Federal SP, its gotten my family a couple of moose. Since then I have gotten into mil-surps and have developed a respect for older weapons.

My 1943, 1903A3 Smith Corona that I haven't shot any game with but I have a real sweet 200 gr Partition load that I worked up.

I still haven't got a moose with a .303, but my twelve year old son got his first this past summer a with No4 MkII that he claimed.

Those are them!
