Posted By: WapitiMac 1929G 250-3000 Antelope - 10/10/15
Me and my son-in-law with antelopes taken this past Tuesday in Dalhart Tx. I used my 1929G in 250 Svg and took mine on the right with a single shot at just under 245 yds. Son-in-law into the militaria and shot his with his 308 SCAR at 175 yds. I'm obviously old school and the old 99 has not let me down yet smile

Just goes to prove you don't need no stinking 308 SCAR

Yep, not sure what SCAR stands for but this old model G stands for "Goner" smile

Great picture!

To each his own I guess but looking at that .308 just makes me shake my head...

This is a good place to ask this question. Is anyone producing new 250-3000 ammo? A guy just asked me, I did an internet search and I couldn't find anyone making it including PPU and Selior and Beloi.

Nice photo. Looks like your 99 outshines the other one! Congratulations!

Very nice! Now you'll have to some how explain to you son-in-law that those plastic ray gun looking things just don't have the class of an old 99 laugh
Congrats to the both of you.

He did ask me how he could get "one of those" old antiques after he watched the buck do a nose dive with one shot smile

Wayne, used factory Rem C-Lkt in 100gr. Got this "G" for $459.00. Seems no one wanted it since it had been non-factory D/T. I'm a hunter and shooter so no problem for me. It shoots less than 3/4 MOA all the time, if I'm doing my job smile
