heck man, drift is when things get good.
stories and pictures are better, I mean your bear story was right on point for the thread actually.
it was pointing out that the 25-20 is probably not the ideal grizzly bear rifle.
now it's possible the O.P. was possibly thinking on Grizzly hunting with his grandpa's old 25-20 and was looking for the perfect cast bullet rifle for allround use.
now he knows that maybe he needs to look at the 32-20 and not the 25-20 for that task.
having said that I have read several in the back of the magazines ad's from when Marlin first started marketing the 25-20 rifles in like 1909 or so,,, and their advertising would have you believing that the 25-20 is big enough for just about anything with 4 legs.
