Finally got a #1 in 280 Rem checked off my 'bucket list". Picked it up about a year ago and just got glass on it and a load for it. Should be minute of deer to over 500 yds. Guess I should get some pix of the rifle up - huh

Isn't it a violation of forum rules to start a thread about a nice gun and not post pics of the gun?

Pix up Don't know if it is an A, B, Q or Z sub model - how do you tell? Pad was replaced with a decelerator pad. There is a black bear etched in one side of the receiver and a big horn ram on the other side. Even got my "kids" in this one.

It's a B - 26" medium weight barrel, no sights, semi-beavertail forearm.
Looks like it shoots pretty good. ;-)

Found an AB in 7x57 once. Only one I ever saw. Prolly should have bought it.

188 yds, quartering toward me right side. 1 thru the ribs and out just before the hip - kinda messy.
