Where to find a sm caliber squirel rifle
I'm looking to get a small caliber rifle for squirel and such, prehaps for this fall. I wanted to get a regular long barrel mountain rifle, in either .32 or .36 caliber.
Anyone know who may carry them? And which caliber do you recommend?
A kit would be fine if you know of anyone who sells them.
I know Austin & Hollick (?) makes a nice one, but that is more than a little out of my league for price right now.

This is a page from Dixie gun works,I believe they have 32 and 36 cal though if they still have the 40 cal I liked it best. Lee

Gun Works has the Crockett for under $300. Nice little rifle not the best of fitting but still is a great wall piece. As far as treerats go it's one of the best out there for that.

another option if you have or want to purchase a Thompson Center Hawkins or Renegade (new or used) you can get a .32 caliber Green Mountain Rifle Barrel that will drop right in the stock. Then you have two rifles. One for small game and one for bigger game. For all the people that are shooting the GMB in the small calibers, they are telling of exceptional accuracy with them.

I'm going to have to check that out. It's in the right price range if I'm buying new (too many things to get done, too little $$$ to do it) and I am leaning toward a longrifle since I want to stick with thelong barrel/full length stocklook. Heck, I just prefer myBP riflesto look like it, I'm almost tired of looking at my T/C PA Hunter.

I picked up a nice Traditions .32 from Midsouth Shooters Supply http://www.midsouthshooterssupply.com/item.asp?sku=00139R26128101
They are out of stock right now. It goes for $270 and is a fantastic rifle. I've dropped my fair share of bunnies and squirells.
