For woods hunting deer and bear up North I found my 99f 358 Win. to have the power I felt would enable shots at running game. I felt confident with this rifle and hunted with as much effort that I could. It proves that a larger, deeper wound improves shot placement! Nice looking Mannlichers there

The rifle on top is a Brno 22F 8x57 with a Kahles 2-7-36. Next is a MS 30-06 that I have shot some, made loads for and found it quite accurate. Third is the 99F 358 Win. My main VT rifle. Fourth is a MS full stock carbine in .358 Win.
All guns should be locked up when not in use!

Good for you, though I'm not sure I'd present that weapon on Western hunt, unless I was female. But back here, in the East, it would probably be popular with girls (anyway). I thin you could get top-dollar for that on Newbury Street, in Boston.

I think the only way I would GAF about what my rifle looked like to others, is if I couldn't hike, shoot, or pack out meat. Maybe I'm weird though.

Tanner (Dudette):
Yes, until you actually went or happen to go West and met a real person, then no?
Anyway, it doesn't matter.
I've had clients who've shown up with all sorts of things.
But, it's always the girls who brandish items such as the "Blue Beauty".
However, I once had a homosexual client from Out West who arrived with a blue rifle (no kidding).
Anyway .....

This dolt presents himself as some sort of man's man, but in reality he won't even admit he's so hard up for a woman's company that he advertises himself on Russian dating service websites. He ought to just man up and admit it and be done with it, then we could only bash him for being a douchenozzle.
It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.

I could tell you who I'd rather take on a hunt, between a guy with a blue McM stocked stainless rifle, and somebody sporting a camouflaged Bone Collector POS.
It wouldn't be hard to tell who could shoot, and who couldn't....

I wanna play. I'm with a lot of you others out there. I already have an awesome whitetail rig.
Rem 700 with a 22" A&B barrel. Chambered for 338-06AI. I usually shoot 200 grain Hornady flat base bullets. This winter I worked up a load with 225 Accubonds. It wears the original Remington checkered synthetic stock with a homeade camo Krylon paint job. It wears a Leupold VX-2 3-9x40 with CDS dial. I've never had a deer (whitetail or mulie) or elk take even a step after they were shot with one of those 200 grain Hornadys.
A lot of darn nice looking remingtons out there. Somewhat of an overkill though, wouldn't you say? Nope, it kills them normal. I've never seen anything be to dead before. I also kill whitetails with a 350 rem mag, 300 WBY, and 358 Norma. Why pick on somebody's cartridge preference, they all work if you make sure of shot placement.

I'd prefer to not escort either, actually. Been there, done that.
But, Tanner Dudette "really takes the cake", so to speak. I mean, college kid? Come on.
I was tagging two mulies on the Uncompahgre and up along The Piceance, long before his parents even knew each other (literally).
Anyway, none of it matters, really.
Youngsters need to start somewhere.

the Model 7 seems to have fallen out of favor within the Campfire, but for anyone that's shouldered a McKS Edge stock, I believe their interest would be renewed. I ordered one of those KS Edge stocks before Christmas based on your pics and glowing reviews. Should be here next week. SS Model Seven action is ready as well as the 25cal PacNor. Maybe, just maybe, I'll have it in time for deer season this fall.

If you ever want to sell that pump-gun, Mr Piper PA-18, I'll pay a pretty good price for the combination, just to acquire the scope that's on top of it. I guess, start at $700.00 (USD) and see what happens?

That rifle would fit perfectly in a SC, scope and all. That scope is an older Vari-X III. Nothing really that special actually. I see them go for about $300 - $350 here in Canada. perfect scope for a carbine.
