That is a nice deer and a beautiful rifle.
Glad you got the picture thing figured out.
Maybe you can teach me.

Maybe you can teach me. Imgur for the win. Like third place I tried. Thanks on the buck and the rifle. That’s my first deer with a 250 but I do have a new stainless 250 takeoff barrel waiting on a Left Hand rifle to screw it onto. I’d like to find a LH 14 or maybe a LH 16. I do like the cartridge.

I have no deer story/picture. And even worse, I have no Savage! I had my Savage dream rifle about 10 years, it was a 1970's 99A Saddle Carbine in the mighty 250/3000 Savage, But like a bow legged, buck toothed idiot, with tendencies toward the behavior of an extreme imbecile, I sold it! (Stupid, stupid, stupid decision)
I scoped it with a VX2 2-7x Leupold. Very importantly to me, as a left-handed shooter, it was equipped with a tang safety. Some folks say it's a varmint bullet but I personally know of about 160 whitetail that would tell you a far different story. I'm talking about the Sierra 90gr HPBT Gameking. My little 250 would shoot them into 1-1/4" groups consistently. I only killed one buck with it He was broadside at roughly 75 yards and was a DRT bang-flop having broken both shoulders and exited the far side. I really liked it but it was so pretty I was scared to hunt with it for fear of "scratching" it. That rifle was pristine. I hope to get another one someday that has already been hunted with and has a few "scratches" on it.

Due to knee surgery, some tree rats with a .410 single is all I can contribute... ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/kM2nbHBQ/DSC00605.jpg)

You need to make a trip down this way Jeff. Gary had to pick up a baseball bat sized stick to fight off the big red Fox Squirrels on his ground stand.If you're in a tree stand you have to make sure you're tied in, or they will gang up and toss you out!
I'm not greedy, I just want one of each.

Shot this bear two nights ago. Well over 300 pounds. 65 yards with my 1899H .303 Savage. Will make a nice rug. Darryl ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/VwpU4KV.jpg)
