I like the old rifles with walnut stocks and the vintage Mossbergs can shoot with the best. Just a matter of learning what they like to “eat.” If the actions are kept clean, they’ll cycle the incredibly consistent Lapua Center X sub-sonic ammo – my preferred choice.

They are much under appreciated rifles. I collect these rifles and have 3 of the 152’s. I never used the 152 for squirrels as I preferred bolt actions. I always went for head shots and found bolt guns more accurate. I always sighted for 50 yds. also. I no longer hunt them, in fact no longer hunt at all. Getting too old I guess and the wife will not eat it anyway!
Enjoy reading your articles. Regards, Dave. PS; I live out on Bennington Rd, near State Rd. originally from south of Chicago. And your rifle has the original sling that Mossberg furnished with these rifle’s.
