Nice thread RevMike.
First deer and first centerfire, 1980 Rem 700 BDL Custom Deluxe 22-250. Amazing that 1 in 14" worked. Disclaimer: pad and receiver sight added.
Ruger 77 Hawkeye Predator 6.5 Creedmoor in the open country "back east". Cheeckpad, bedded, railed, slinged, bi-podded, yet still factory to me.
That buck was cheese burgers tonight. Excellent eating.
