My favorite odd ball firearm is...

[Special T]

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.

I don't care for oddball cartridges. I must say that your collection of combo guns that you use for coyote hunting is pretty awesome. It might be the only way I'd have some strange old caliber.

On a side note I'm really surprised Savage has not come out with a combo gun dedicated to the predator hunter. Something like 223, 22-250, or 243 over a 12 gauge. There wouldn't be ANY hesitation from me to buy one if they offered them in one of those calibers, and I would think the .223 would be a hot seller.

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.

Not really my favorite, but it sure has my respect, it has takes a licking and keeps on ticking.

1962 Remington Sportsman 48, 16 ga semi-auto, 2 3/4 in, 26 in barrel "full choke" short barrel.
My dad gave this shotgun to me on my first chukar hunt.
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'.

Remington Sportsman 48, made from 1949 - 1968,

Thanks alchase, must have been once he got out of the service then.

Sweet rifle with a sweeter caliber, LOL
