Rocking it old school.............? #9299655 10/31/14 Joined: Feb 2005 Posts: 15,565 Michigun 2muchgun OP Campfire Ranger OP 2muchgun Campfire Ranger Joined: Feb 2005 Posts: 15,565 Michigun I normally deer hunt with one "classic" and one "high tech" rifle. I always take 2 to camp. This year I just may be rocking 2 old school rifles. A Rem 141 in 35 Rem shooting 200gr Interlock RN handloads: And a 1957 edition Win 88 that is crazy accurate with 150gr. Accubond handloads: May even be sporting a Kromer and old school Marbles knife. I'd like to see some of the old school rifles/knives/duds/gear some will use this year. Let's see it.......

Yeah, our weather goes from zero to $hitty real fast. Especially up near Thunder Bay where I often hunt. There's a reason why the highest concentration of shipwrecks on the Great Lakes are right there, and why they don't sail in November. Then again, you still see more old school rifles in northern Michigun than anything else.............

Only 2 rifles in my collection really qualify; an early model Ruger Deerfield carbine and the mid-50's vintage '94 Winchester in .32 Special that my Dad passed to me a year ago. I'll see if I have a pic or 2, but anything I have will pale in comparison to what you've posted. 4 out of 5 Great Lakes prefer Michigan.

Great looking at these fine old rifles, knives,,etc. Far more fun than the ".223 for deer crap." 2mg, The U.P. is some awesome country!!! Just came though it last Aug.. For some one who hunts open country, it sure is different.. You have an outstanding gun and knife collection.. Beautiful.. My uncle had a .348 deluxe I believe.. I lusted after it.. Gave it to a son in law who sold it for beer. KW, You have some awesome stuff there also.. What is the caliber on that long barreled 95?? Swede, those 721 .300 H & H's certainly are fine guns.. Owned a couple, but let them get away.. The best deer hunter I knew as a young man, used a slide action Rem. either 14 or 141 AND a 721 in .300 H & H.. He was deadly with either.. Bruin, That old 32 spl. is just like my Dad's.. Only he was not much of a hunter.. I have now.. Don't shoot it much.. Killed a couple p. dogs last summer with it.. Killed my first deer with it, an antelope, and mt. lion.. Have a mate to it in .30-30.. My only remaining 99 is a.250 that belonged to my father in law.. Kind of surprised by the lack of Marlins. Bruins 44 was sharp. Have three: all half mag. jobs .25-35, .30-30 and .45-70.. Nice to see folks hunting deer with deer rifles... Molon Labe

Someone forgot to tell the deer! When my youngest daughter was 15 she went 2 for 2 on does at 225 and 240 yards. Didn't know any better. We'll be trying for east Nebraska whitetails this year. It probably will stay at her house from now on. Hope she lets me borrow it once in a while. Marty

New fangled thangs??? After seeing your photo of your trump line, I sorta expected you'd be dressed in that fashion.
