Using the same rifle I used last year. I built this Kimber Classic from a very early 84M that was a nice shooting 7-08, but I was wanting a 243 and have another Kimber 7-08 so the early one became a donor. Adam Bentley of Dresdon Gun Company did the rebarrel, action truing and bluing while I did the stock. ![[Linked Image]](http://i.imgur.com/b2y3qSg.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://i.imgur.com/dnxgFnw.jpg)

![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/QfDTjVv.jpg) This has been my deer rfile for many years. A No. 1 in .243 that Jack Haugh made in the late 80's. The gun is iin fine shape. We hunt in blinds here in Michigan and our guns do not get beat up. It is very accurate with my handloads. Dats a pretty gun!

Figure I will use my Ruger American 300BO in the Missouri Timber this year, like last. 110gr Sierra HP did a pretty damned good number.
Here in OK, probably an RAR in 308....although I am tempted to poke one with the .22 Creedmoor.
