Hello from Romania!

Hello,



I'm Daniel, I live in Romania and I reticently discovered this forum while browsing the web.

Hunting is a family tradition in my case and I remember going out in the nature since when I was only a small child.

I like old hunting weapons and I have one shotgun (16/70 Merkel Suhl from 1963) for small game and also mixed-bag driven hunts. I also have a very old Mannlicher Schonauer (6.5x54) for deer hunting and another rifle from Voere (9.3x62) for big game driven hunts (mostly wild boars). I use to have a lever-action Winchester in .45-70, I loved the system but I had to sell it because it was to heavy for the amount of movement I had to do in rough terrain...

I go hunting in the entire country because we have a variety of ecosystems and we are able to hunt everything from quails, rabbits and waterfowl in the plains up to red stags, wild boars, wolves and bears in the mountains. My favorite area remains the one close to my home - the hills and forests of the Carpathian mountains.

Here is a photo of me with a roe buck from the last season

I'm interested mostly in old hunting weapons, wildlife management and on how others are able to promote hunting in their countries.

I hope that this is a good place for finding such information and for sharing experiences.



Regards,
Daniel
 
That is a nice beast. Looks like a Mannlicher Stutzen - excellent choice. Welcome to the forum.

A very nice hunt here. It is practiced in the plains area from mid August until mid September. In the late autumn and winter we also have some very nice areas with waterfowl.
However, plains are just one third of our country and most of the game hunted here is medium and large size game (roe deers, wild boars, red stags, brown bears)
 
Thanks, I also have a similar rifle in 7x57 (Brno 22F) but this one is based on the Mauser system.
Quite difficult to post images on this forum. I see that I'm unable to share photos from my Google Photos account
I hope you find a way to post photos as I’m sure I’m not the only one interested.
