Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Ask The Gunwriters A Close-in Deer Rifle

A long time favorite of mine is this 20.5" barreled Model 70 9.3x62, which works just as well on a buck 250 yards across a muskeg as it does on a brown bear at 5 yards. With 286 gr partitions any angle is a good angle, and they don't wreck meat badly. I switch back and forth between the Talley peep and a scope. Last year I discovered the Trijicon Accupoint 1-4, which has proven to be my best woods scope by far.
