Man, and here I thought a
"squirrel dog" was bred for hunting Cajuns....
My so-far favorite combo shop was in a stop on
the road in Utah , something like"Weber Bridal and Model
Rocketry Store".

Using the steel case, steel jacketed and berdan primed but newly
manufactured Russian ammo.
The bore has a bad section about midways of the barrel, I doubt
any grade of ammo would help much. It will shoot a 4 inch group at
128 arshins, good enough for its purpose.
Cheap beater gun for a bad environment, I leave it proped up handy
at the barn, if someone should happen to steal it, I'm not out much.

I see part of this thread has changed to guns. I'll add a true
story.... **the names are changed to protect the innocent.
One evening, a young couple, in Pine Prairie, were to have tacos.
While the wife was doing the fixings, hubby was to run into Ville
Platte and get some taco shells. On the way in to town, he notices
the little Cajun country store is still open, so he whips in, sticks
his head in the door and asks, "Mr. Caillouet, you have any taco
shells?" Mr. Caillouet replies, "Mais, all I got is 20 guage."

I had a pure bred English Setter that loved to hunt squirrels.
Lived in the middle of a woods full of wild life, especially
squirrels.
"Mike" would look up into the trees as he walked below and then "go on
set".
Look up and you would see a squirrel hugging the trunk of the tree a
few feet above "Mike".

Really? I have a model 44, and it is very accurate. Some of them are good
guns, some not so much. Too bad yours is so bad - I really like mine, and
can count on it every time I bring it up.

Watched a documentary on Siberia once. People rolling
wheels of milk down the road, usual stuff. One guy was
an ermine hunter. Riding down a path, talking to the
film maker, he says "There's one up there in the tree running
between branches".
The camera zooms to nothing. He had an ancient Mosin-Nagant
surplus rifle butted into his crotch with the hand holding the stock
on the trigger while the other arm was busy with the reins. He
remarked, " The pelt is no good if you don't shoot them in the head",
takes the shot while moving and the ermine falls shot in the head
from 70 or so feet up. Flat amazing.

Squirrel dog primer:
Disclaimer, I can only speak for what I have experienced in the South.
Squirrel dogs are typically Feist (closely related to Rat Terriers)
although any so inclined dog can serve as a squirrel dog.
They serve three purposes, one to get a squirrel on the ground to
take to the trees, alert you to the presence of said squirrel and
its current location and to circle the tree to bring it around into
view where it can be shot.
A good one will bring you the squirrel with trying to eat it first.
Squirrels although otherwise disgusting arboreal rats are quite
tasty.

"Credenza" is an entertaining word. "Credo"="I believe/trust". The
credenza was the name for the dining table used by food
tasters for royalty and important political functionaries
before the last named ate, if the first named didn't...in
a final way..."eat it".

Australian Cattle Dog would easily take a grounded squirrel, as I'm sure would
a hundred other varieties.

Assuming you have a decent bore, crown and throat on the thing, there should be
some rounds out there that will be accurate in your rifle. Info on ball surplus
accuracy is here:
http://7.62x54r.net/MosinID/MosinAmmo.htm
Sometimes they can be particular about what you feed them. Have you tried some
of the S&B ammo? If that is not accurate for you, at least the S&B is brass
case and boxer primed, therefore easily reloadable. Since the case will be
fire-formed you should be able to come up with an accurate reload, especially if
you only neck size the cases and go with a boattail. Somebody over on rec.guns
probably has just the answer you need.
To get on topic, maybe somebody will post a picture or plan of their favorite
reloading bench? Mine amazingly looks a lot like a Workmate 400 clamping a
cleated piece of plywood that has a press bolted to it.

You have a known bad barrel and you complain of MN's accuracy?
Shame on you. Blame your known defective gun, not the rifle in
general, as it appeared to be in your first statement. MNs were used
very effectively as sniper rifles during their heyday.

Yeah, there's no need to replace it if that's all it's used for.

Nah, you can't get off that easy, it isn't as common as it used to
be but businesses in the south were sometimes in odd combinations,
(you already know this)
a couple of recent examples off the top of my head were "Game room and
notary public" and "Ed's chain saw repair and beauty salon".
Which begs the question, What would Robatoy use for an appropriate
font for such a sign.
Wonder do the dogs and squirrels know they're Cajuns?
