One of my favorite coyote hunting guns, a BRNO O/U combo gun made in the 1960's. I have it set up with a Leupold VxII 1-4x20 in the original quick detachable mount. It is a 22 Savage Highpower(5.6x52R) an old cartridge from the early 1900's, basically a 30-30 necked to .228, with 55gr Buffalo arms .228 bullets it will still shoot sub MOA groups to 200 yards. I took one coyote at 170 last week with the rifle and another with the 12 gauge barrel loaded with 1 1/4oz of F's.

It has been "accidentally" dropped in Hood Canal in January. Spent 20 years as a closet queen. Did a tour rattling around behind the seat on my old Silverado.Has never misfired or had a mechanical problem.Now graces a place of honor, kept clean and lubed, fully loaded alternated 00 buck and slugs, in a quick to reach SHTF location. Ugly, scratched and pitted, but I would bet my life on it.My grandfather used one of those for his entire life, hundreds of pheasants and ducks. Still runs like a boss. Not sure on the manufacture date but from the stories i remember, he either got it out of highschool or right after he got out of the service.. he just turned 95 last weekend and it still resides next to his bed incase his golf club doesnt work on em'.

Not too odd, but it's all I've got.Ruger No. 3. It was originally a .223, but had it rebored to .35 Whelen. Shaved the barrel band as I'm not a fan of them. So, a No.2 I suppose.
