I found this rifle used like new. What's it good for? Anybody have one? Do you kill deer with it? What do they sell for approximately?
Thanks in advance.
Red,
Couple of thoughts here. Reasons to buy it are:
Vixens are about the very best rifles ever made, in any caliber.
But, the one in 6 PPC is the one hardest to locate today
Their resale value is climbing, not decreasing.
I had two dedicated benchrest 6 PPC's rifles in the early 1970's, right after the chambering became popular. Accuracy was the same as in Dave's pix. I made my own bullets back then, 68 grainers with Detsch dies.
If you want THE very best 6 PPC in a sporting rifle, you should buy the one you have found. It would make a Coyote rifle unequalled in class.
I'm sure with the right bullet that it would down a Deer. But, there are better Deer rifle options in your arsenal today.
I would buy it, and use it for Coyote hunting, and also have a great collector's rifle at the same time.
My .02 cents, FWIW.
Don
