Pat did you hunt with Jon Barker on that buck? I met him in out in in the middle of Montana a couple years ago at a card lock fueling up. Real cool guy.



My hunting buddy, Tom Sather was with Jon that day, I was hunting solo. We all met up at the end of the day. We had quite a celebration!

M700BDL in 270. Bought it in 1972 and for around 30 years it was the only centerfire I owned. Mostly used 130 gr Interlocks over H4831, all three varieties in that length of time. It's on it's 2nd barrel and 3rd stock these days. The last 15 or so years I've used several other rifles, a M77 MkII 257 Roberts the most. Finally dug the ol 270 back out last fall and took a 160" deer with it, still works.

Model 721 in 270 with a 50 year old Weaver 6K and 130 gr. Core Locks If venison absolutely positively has to go into the freezer, this rifle comes out of the safe.

That’s certainly true for me. So...

my ‘ best guess ‘ is that I’ve killed more deer with my first Rem M Six in 270 Win.

Really there are & have been too many rifles & too many deer to be certain. It has almost become an obsession to hunt 1 or 2 different or new rifles
each year.

Probably either a Savage 16 in 7mm/08 or a Savage 116 in 375 H&H mag. They were my bad weather guns for years. A Remington 700 Classic in 300 Savage and a Mauser 98 in 6mm Rem would be right in the mix too.

Like most others here, I have a number of rifles I rotate through. I have numerous rifles with 1-3 deer to their credit with several others that need to be blooded by me yet.

Weatherby ULW 25-06, a buddy fell in love with it and I swapped it away because it carried easily but it was too light for me to shoot easily...
