I carry a Ruger Mark II with a lazer sight on my light belt but if I want to lug a rifle along I have a Marlin Stainless Model 60 with a sling.

Savage single shot .22 with a Mueller 2x-7x red dot scope. My Savage rifle also has an accutrigger. From the bench I can get nice clover leaf groups very close to .5" @ 100 ft.

Oh I forgot about my special coon shooter. Many of the local hunters really like her. Dave Oswald does claim she could be just a little louder. I have a TC with 10" barrel in .22 mag with a red dot scope. I really like her too. Her name is Lou Lou.

a Mossberg 340 .22 bolt action with a 4 power scope. also have a Marlin .22 Mag with a fancy 3x12 Barska lighted scope on it. The .22 Mag is a bit of over kill but it leaves no doubt.... also used for other hunting as well.....

An Air rifle never crossed my mind. Does it do the job?
