I'm gonna step off the pier here a bit!
I have watched my uncle (years-ago) shoot everything with his old winchester 1892, 25-20. I still have one back in michigan that will be coming down here and going to a calling stand or 2...??? I have seen alot of fox he called in and shot with that thing and every hide i remember looked great. Furs were at a premium back then and it was extremely important to keep fur. its a little bigger in dia. but it's pretty darn slow. I did however shoot my first deer with it, as it was a family heirloom and it set in more patience in shot placement than anything i can ever remember. The shot HAD to be absolutely perfect and at close range.
Enough of that: The train of thought here is: it's a slow bullet and usually at real close range. I know it's probably not an option at all, but to ME: it's a perfect cat round.
(other than that: it will make for some great pictures and memories. Octagon barrel and the old "buckhorn sights)
feel free to call me nuts, but iv'e seen it work alot of times, and plenty for close range 'yotes as well.
Thanks for letting me "rant"..
