Psst... I have sort of the same problem











(I was going to put pics of the 7.92x57JS reloads here, but I don't think I actually took any! Suffice to say this Gew88/05 shoots about 1.2" at 100 yards.)

The Mosin is the workhorse because I've done so much to it, with the adjustable sights, two-stage trigger, etc, but the Gew88/05 has done its share, too.

I'm not counting my sidelock muzzleloader as it's not a cartridge arm, but it's fun, too.

Where I live there are not many opportunities for long shots on game. Modern 'scoped bolt actions are just sort of boring. Even the above rifles with their flat trajectories don't require much thought inside 200 yards. Heck, the rear sight on the Mosin is graduated and close enough to yards that I can just use it if I know the range.
