What is the rifle’s first assignment?

Supposed to be an Arizona Coues deer, but I was too slow ...

Gonna hafta be a Montana whitetail (unless a mondo muley shows up first). I would shoot it for a local deer, but I don't want to re-zero it for lead-free ...

There are hardly any whitetail in MT ;D , lots of wolves though.

Why not use “lead free” monos for everything? The TSX or TTSX has been extremely accurate for me and it doesn’t bounce off deer or elk, in fact they have never even required a follow up shot. If you don’t like those there’s a lot of choices with countless makers producing lead-free. If it’s boutique you desire then Hammer bullets might suffice….for the raised-pinky, ascot-wearing crowd anyway. 😁. With a rifle like that I’d want to hunt it as much as I could. 👍

That’s a beautiful build and it looks like it’s going to serve you well. I might’ve missed it but what are the weights of the rifle in lightweight and heavyweight configurations?
