Kinda like Model Sixes myself. Finally found a very nice one a few years back, updated the mounts and got it dialed in for the next guy. Satisfied my curiosity, then moved it on. It shot my standard ‘06 deer load, 150gr NP over 46gr of H4895 pretty well, just as every other rifle I’ve tried in in has. Probably should have held onto it long enough to shoot a deer, but I get itchy once a project like that is finished.
You’re lucky to have a place to hunt like that. I was too, for about 28 years, and with a good friend tossed in as well. All gone now, so it’s Public Land for me now. Bought a crossbow a few years ago so I can hunt under low-traffic conditions. I still can get some standing opportunities with that, but not all.
Thnx Pappy
That property belongs to my Widowed Aunt and she's in poor health. Don't know how long that will last.
I have moved (2012) back to my home stomping grounds and have relatives where I can hunt BUT under diff circumstances.
Yes, I'm VERY thankful for my hunting situation. 40 years of hunting I did NOT have this situarion.
This is my 10 tenth season here and I'm 71 so.............. who knows the future. ONE day at a time.
