Most hunters/shooters in Canada(including myself) have been brought up on them the same way Americans are brought up on the Mod94 in 30/30. They are excellent rifles for moose(shot my first moose with one at age 16), deer, bear, elk, and caribou.
My Dad has shot sheep at 400yds with his. You can buy factory cartridges with bullets weighingup to 220grs in size. I highly recommend them. Remember bullet placement. Good luck.
