For example, a recent short thread Mosin hunters revealed their use to hunt black bear, bou, griz, hog, deer, and large marine mammals. Note the subsistence hunter "Caribou" from the north end of this state describes finishing off a WHALE with five shots from an M-39! I'd like to hear from anyone who can top that.
OMG!! Does it get anymore bad-ass than that?!
Really, that is an amazing testimony of the possibilities this rifle and cartridge have.
I've never understood why a milsurp rifle is frowned upon and looked down at by some people for hunting purposes. It puts the meat on the table just as easily as that $700.00 remchester with the $500.00 scope. Why should it matter that it doesn't look like a standard hunting rifle?
In the end, the fact that the hunter brings home the meat is what matters most, isn't it?
Everything else is just vanity.
