Congrats! I love this rifle Honestly, is there any Savage 99 or Sako that you don’t love? You’ve got good taste.

Killed a small 8 point this AM, he was about 150 yards, 16” inside. He weighed 180 not gutted ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/cJQ3fmzV/IMG-2364.jpg) While I was waiting to go check on the buck, damn pig walked out ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/R0nkd3Qr/IMG-2365.jpg)

You're gonna wear that thing out in one season!! Sure does seem to work good!
That stock is really pretty in the daylight, (and layin' across some fresh meat!)!
..., and sorry, but that's nothing like a small 8-point!

Better start thinking about your next barrel.

Yeah, I hunted west Texas several years and shot several 8 pointers. None weighed anywhere near 180. Some long tines on that rack too.

We do have some bigger deer in MD. My biggest dress was 196, nice 7 point.
