Near Pittstord a dog was killed la
a determined and intelligent effort to

dous Telocity (2800 feet more than half a mile a second), ki.j point blank
range (200-jrard trajectory less than three inches), and trifling recoil (4.6 foot
pounds) make it easier to hit moving game with than any other rifle.
And it has killed Alaskan Brown Bear, Grizzly, Buffalo, and man-eating
