Well, this is my new favorite rifle and for good reason.... wink.. I put some of those el-cheapo 200gr. Nosler partition seconds ($13.45/bag) to good use these last few weeks. Shot my buck with the old girl a few days into buck season and my bull on the second day into the short season:

This bull is soak and wet because it rained and rained and rained during this hunt. The weather sucked balls...

This rifle brings back some good memories of when I was 12 and using my old m1917 for the first time. To me, there's not a better rifle for my style of hunting/shooting.. No that doesn't mean I'm getting rid of my 30-06 fwt or my custom 338 win mag... Just that the m1917 fits me better, it's easier to manipulate the safety lever and feels more natural to use. Almost instinctively really. That's how a good rifle should be.. How's that for a Winchester..........1917... laugh
