Another curiousity question for the forum. I have had a Husqvarna commercial model 96 chambered in 8X57 sitting in my gun cabinet for a couple of decades. Over the years, I've shot lots of paper (It's accurate beyond belief) but never shot anything living. Anybody actually hunt with this caliber? How lethal? Currently use 170 gr. Hornday and 3031 powder. Any alternate suggestions?
