    Is hunting to open in National Parks?

    Classic reels

    44 Magnum 320gr hard cast. They have been the load I have carried in a S&W 629 3" barrel for years for Bear and Moose protection. Carried it in Alaska, Montana and eastern Idaho. I have been glad to have it with me on occasion but thankfully I have never had to use it.
