You know it's a good one when you immediately feel pain & suffering after the sale. It's like choosing between your kids. Dammit!

Those bucks in AL better enjoy their beans! wink

Thank you! If I had it to do all over again, I would do it exactly the same way with zero changes. That, after actually hunting with it for several years says something I think.

realralfy, you have yourself a semi famous rifle there as it is featured with a big Mule Deer Buck in the Barnes Reloading manual. I took a couple of real wallhangers at 440-493 yards with that one.

Good hunting to you,

MARK
