Those old Hawkins rifles were always sweet to shoot. I cut my teeth on a CVA Mountain Rifle in .58 caliber and it was a great shooter. The person also has an ORIGINAL 1861 Springfield Rifle in .58 caliber and we used to shoot milk jugs at 100 yards off his deck railing with roundball like it was nothing. I told him never to sell that Springfield to anyone but me. Yet he up and sold it one day to a person in town (for a lot more then I would have paid for it, but it was an original). His CVA he claimed the stock cracked and after that he started shooting T/C Hawkins .54 calibers. So I bought a .54 Renegade. He took that CVA to a Rendezvous one time and sold that too.
I want to take the disc extreme hunting with me on opening day, I am thinking of getting pellets and knight bullets just to get it close enough to hunt with.
