Had a doe that was bedded behind a rock ahead of me jump up at about 10-12' away. She was as startled as I and just stood there staring. After about 10 seconds she blew, jumped and did a 180 in the air and was gone. Funny now, but at the time I was concerned I might need to return to camp and change my skivies! My favorite rifle since 1991 has always been my 336 Marlin but I may carry my recently acquired 1946 Model 99EG .300 Savage this fall.
