Not me. If I wanted to go modern, I would use my custom 264 Win Mag with a 26 inch barrel topped with the 6.5-20x50 Zeiss holding turrets. On deer sized game, I can shoot out to 550 with little issues. 700 if I have a calm wind and also feel confident.

Keep old, old and new, new. Otherwise, there isn't any nostalgia... and IMO, looks really goofy putting a modern scope on a 20s gun. To which is own.
