Canada	For me I've taken a couple of mule deer and a handful of yotes.I've been packing during moose season but without a LEH it's a tough hunt in my area.Maybe this year. Calibre's used so far .308,.300 and .22 hp.I'm going to pack my .250 for deer season this year.

Got the 99C in 22-250 all lined up for yotes but haven't had a chance to get out and really call one in. Thinking about trying one of my 38-55's for black bear this fall. 24 hour sarcastic S.O.B.

The rifle I use most is my rainy day gun (and it seems to be raining a lot the last few seasons),a gray-rat 99R in .300 Savage. ***************************************** Hunting FOR Savages, Hunting WITH Savages

Tried iron sight 303 Sav for the bear but too dark in cedar swamp stand for iron sights... Most game with bow these days so Savages not getting their due in the field! Bruce
