It's a fairly new rifle for me and is shooting well. I'm taking it to West TX this fall to chase some Aoudad. Eric Eric, you are just a damn good shot. Probably give those guys in your unit that are specialists a run for their money. I can't wait to see how the 338 shoots for you. One thing you'll notice about it vs. the 30-06 you got from me is it doesn't foul as quickly....Nice rifles you got there. I know the one on the left is a shooter as well Thanks, BSA! We're getting CLOSE on the 338. I was figuring August timeframe. I can't wait to see how it turned out. Also good to hear that it's not a huge fouler. lol. I need to start scouting out some ammo.

Very nice! I like the figure in the wood and case coloring. Eric

Eric I made the 30-06 sound bad, but you know it isn't too bad. It lets you know when it's dirty though...That 30-06 shoots lights out when it's clean!!! . Glad to see you made it back home safely...I'm also waiting patiently for the 338 to get done!!!! Originally Posted by raybass I try to stick with the basics, they do so well.

I just finished a SXS shoot in Duluth, MN and shot a Boss 20ga from 1874, Parker lifter from 1880 and several other Parker hammerless guns from the early 1900's. I never have owned a Savage 99 and have one lever gun a M94 in 38-55.

I just ordered some .228 cast bullets from Montana Bullet works to play with the 1913 M99 in .22 Savage Hi-Power If something on the internet makes you angry the odds are you're being manipulated

They are pretty heavy...and my favorite hunting rifle is a sako l61r...06 Varmint rifle would be l461 in 222 or 20 tac...toss up..very close second is an 1885 hornet... Every da pinker and truck gun would go to the 92 win in 25/20
