300 Savage is THE whitetail cartridge for me. Here's last years take. About 120 yards at last light. 150 grain Winchester Power Point dropped him in his tracks.

300 EG. 300 yards in a howling crosswind.

I'd like to tell you it was me, but I blame it on the gun.

My Dad took this bull with a Savage 99, in .300 Savage, 150 grains, fall 2014. http://s1106.photobucket.com/user/bobramsay/media/HPRondeckw-bull.jpg.html][Linked Image][/URL][/img]

Oh, as he tells the story, "it was running at 300 yards and all he could see was an eye and an ear". Seems that it gets further away each time he tells the story :-)

Calhoun that is one beautiful buck. Taken in Nebraska? I've seen some pictures of good ones out of Nebraska in the last couple of years. Looks like a s. Texas buck. Very grey, beautiful cape w/a great rack. Man those tines are long. powdr

See photo to the left. .300 99G, 150 grain Nosler Partition, 38.5 grains IMR4895. I use this load because the rifle shoots 1" groups with it and the group opens up with more powder. The barrel threads have been chased so that the rifle no longer takes down which increase the accuracy.

Oh I can assure you I have the matching coat. That sweatshirt is just an underlayer. I had shed the wool coat for dressing out the buck.
