In 1988 I bought a like new 700 Mountain Rifle .270 with a Simmons scope at a yard sale for abut $300.

Soon thereafter or before (gettin older) G&A ran a Ross Seyfried piece on ideal rifles for various game. In that piece he held the relatively new MR .270 was the perfect deer rifle.

It was for me for quite awhile, but I went loony. My oldest son is taking the MR out in the morning with a bellyful of Rem Managed Recoil loads; 50 yards is a long poke in our swamp.

I'll prolly take her out for a sentimental journey before the season ends.
