Youth M111 Savage, wearing a slip on pad to extend LOP, chambered in the awesome .243, wearing a Simmons 8 point, 3-9 x 40 scope, fondly named "meat gun" ! About $320 in total spend on the package, back when Doug was 12 (now 28). I've said it before, it's put more deer meat in our freezers, than all our other rifles, combined.

Big leaf maple stock, 357 SM brass escutchions, bushed firing pin, that I built. The 357 SM with the 200 RCBS plain base PCed is the real deal n a 16" barrel. The 225 throws a 53gr pretty fast, good on yotes. “To expect defeat is nine-tenths of defeat itself. It becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Ol’ Earl is uglier than homemade sin, but wicked accurate and tough as a dump truck full of neck bones. She just loves it. Livin ain’t killed me yet, but it’s workin on it!

This was culling in Africa...I have a tad over $200 invested in this rifle Last edited by ingwe; 07/18/23. "...the left considers you vermin, and they'll kill you given the chance..." Bristoe
