We have tried a few times before but school, bad weather and our stand site getting flooded out always seemed to throw us a curve ball. BUT, everything came together yesterday evening! She used her mid 1960's 6mm Rem with Barnes 80 gr TTSX loaded over a max charge of IMR 4350. Sow weighed 185 pounds on my digital scale. She said I want to do this again! We had a great time together as you can tell from that smile. ![[Linked Image]](https://www.24hourcampfire.com/ubbthreads/gallery/80/full/57250.jpg)

That's great Sako! You can tell she's a proud girl.
My son got his first bear in September while hunting with grampa.

Okie, no it's an early '60s Rem 700 BDL with the squared off safety. It shoots dearly we'll and it is her favorite rifle. Thanks for all the support guys. She is reading every reply.

I looked back to the OP and saw that you had clearly describe the rifle. Not sure what is your daughter's first name, but I would add "Dead Eye" as her nickname.

My son shoots my old 1974 vintage 6mm Rem 700 BDL. It's good to see those old rifles still in use. And my goodness, that 6mm Rem can deliver!
