I stumbled onto this rifle last year around Christmas and I have waited patiently for this years deer season to harvest a buck with it. Well it didn't take long. The rifle is in .308 Norma Mag, the bullet was 150gr Barnes TSX on top of 72gr of H4350.

I gave my 308 NM to my Grandson and am sprucing up one in 358 NM on a 7mm action. Cheers NC

Nice buck, that's a beautiful rifle in a cool chambering. I still think that the 308 Norma was the best designed of all the different 300 magnums.
