Took my 99 out on opening day Saturday killed a nice tree swinging on a nice buck chasing a doe and an hour and a half later shot a fat fork horn for the freezer. Never been a horn hunter but have kept the family in venison for the past 40 years. Tried a new bullet this year when I found a box of Speer 165 grain round nose new old stock. May be constructed a bit stout for white tail but they did the job. For the rut he still was carrying a lot of fat so been eating well. The classics may not be long range minute of angle but they damn sure are minute of deer. Forgot the details 99F in 308 wearing a Leopold 3x9. Haven't hunted this gun in 7 years but it still fits like a well worn pair of jeans and shoots where I am looking.
