I have been chasing deer with a Winchester 1886 50-100-450 and haven’t closed the gap enough to get the deer. It’s getting late in the season so I took the 270 out for a 325 yard shot. 130 grain combined technology bullets at 3200 fps were too much for this deer… ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/QdKB8Fnv/IMG-2840.jpg)

It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.

Congratulations and nice picture!
Maybe not as cool as it would have been with the 1886, but still a nice picture! 😁

Hey shrapnel, nice deer!! Let’s hear a little about your 270! Looks a little like a Sako? Alan It is a custom rifle if unknown origin. It is a Sako action with a Lilja barrel and a nice piece of wood… ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/vHnhdxz2/IMG-8893.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/bwjs47G2/IMG-2406.jpg)
