I've had a rifle come to me that was carried by the 3 generations before. I figured if the 160 NP was good enough for them (bears, moose, rams, whitetail, mulies, yada yada yada), I could slum it as well. Other than subbing H4350 for IMR 4350, it's still doing the job as it has for many decades.

If all goes well, it'll go up the mountain once more for a bighorn in 2023.

I'm green with envy! That is an outstanding rifle, congratulations.
