Very nice rifles. I packed a Remington 760 (left hand) 30-06 for deer season. I didn't get too excited about western Oregon deer hunting, since I didn't draw a tag for my area: For elk hunting, I wanted to pack my light 338. I ended up packing this one for 4 days: Damn good rifle and the light weight was pretty nice for carring. Funny thing happened when I handed my rifle to my partner before crossing over a fence. He grabbed it and got the funniest look on his face and said it feels like a rifle without a stock, "it's so light". He was telling the guys at work about it the other day too. It must have made an impression . He said he wishes his Ruger m77 338 win mag was that light.. The other rifle I packed was not a light weight, but worked out so nicely that I packed it for the remaining 4 days of the hunt. 375 H&H model 70 in coyote bomber swirly:

The good Colonel and I went moose hunting this year to fill a cow tag. Left handed model 70 in 400 Whelen.
Chronographs, bore scopes and pattern boards have broke a lot of hearts.

Nice rifles you have there. If you noticed, I posted a Remington 760. Hopefully no one looks down on me because of it..
