300 Savage is THE whitetail cartridge for me. Here's last years take. About 120 yards at last light. 150 grain Winchester Power Point dropped him in his tracks.

300 EG. 300 yards in a howling crosswind. I'd like to tell you it was me, but I blame it on the gun.

My Dad took this bull with a Savage 99, in .300 Savage, 150 grains, fall 2014. http://s1106.photobucket.com/user/bobramsay/media/HPRondeckw-bull.jpg.html] [/URL][/img] Oh, as he tells the story, "it was running at 300 yards and all he could see was an eye and an ear". Seems that it gets further away each time he tells the story :-)

See photo to the left. .300 99G, 150 grain Nosler Partition, 38.5 grains IMR4895. I use this load because the rifle shoots 1" groups with it and the group opens up with more powder. The barrel threads have been chased so that the rifle no longer takes down which increase the accuracy. David
wyo1895 With Savage never say never. For a copy of my book on engraved Savage lever actions rifles send a check for $80 to; David Royal, p.o. box 1271, Pinedale, Wy., 82941. I will sign and inscribe the book for you. [email protected]

[ Jimmy: Diggin those pants man. Disappointed in the coat though. [/quote] Oh I can assure you I have the matching coat. That sweatshirt is just an underlayer. I had shed the wool coat for dressing out the buck.

The video was awesome. Had a flash back to when I was 13 with my first deer. It's not just me.....
