Short, light, cheap (They're all over the pawn shops.), rugged, and over a century of American Tradition. In a truck or on a horse, it's the "go to" rifle.

my beater/truck gun for the last couple years has been a mossberg atr 06 that i had duracoted in cammo. It was only 250 bucks and shoots moa with a load it likes. Cheaper and more accurate then a 3030 and capable of taking deer a coyotes and about anything else out to 300 yards. Only problem is my buddy who gave me an opertunity to shoot a ton of deer doing crop damage shooting had a daughter that hunted with us occasionaly and didnt have a gun of her own and i found it meant alot more to her then it ever did for me. Got to find me a new truck gun. Like i said i have all kinds of lever guns and bolt guns but this time i think i will do something in stainless so i dont have to worry about leaving it in the truck. Problem with that is i have a few that qualify but there to nice and to expensive to leave sitting in a truck.
