It can be more than one, and for any kind of hunt. The only caveat is that you include pictures of the rifle or rifles. I am undecided right now but should have something figured out in the next few days. Once I do, I’ll provide pictures as well. Looking forward to see what everyone’s gonna be using. Hopefully we will see them again on this years Kill Page. If you want to do your shotgun, show that as well. RAS I see a disturbing lack of pictures...

Just click on the link. 1918-1919 vintage M1899 .250-3000, second variation. I'm essentially the third owner. Last edited by gnoahhh; 10/17/21.

First is Randy's 1919 250 with just a tad of condition. I think it might be the nicest 1899 I have. Then comes Steve's custom, one off Ruger #3 in 25-35. I think the scope is just posing for the shot, so if it doesn't look right, that's why. it is mounted now and is very accurate. Last is the 1928 K, in 300, with a Noske scope. I have no problem hunting the K, it's already been defiled with a side mount. I'm not greedy, I just want one of each. Remember Ira Hayes JoeMartin

I think you should cut that big burl off the tree behind you and turn it into a 99 stock. That way if it cracks behind the tang, the crack will go round and round the stock, and where it stops, nobody knows? I'm not greedy, I just want one of each. Remember Ira Hayes JoeMartin

Fireball2 Campfire Kahuna Joined: May 2011 Posts: 56,274 Oregon	Originally Posted by Fireball2 Anything with 284 in the title is a good choice. 284 gets it done on a blacktail again. The shot was only 110 yards so any of them would have got it done this time, but the 284 is also good at 450 yards w/o going back to the truck to grab a different rifle. Story is in the 2020-2021 Savage kill thread. _______________________________________________________ An 8 dollar driveway boy living in a T-111 shack LOL
