It’s a little heavier than I would like as mountain hunting is the hunting that has interested me the most. Thanks!
My gun that has done some serious killing is the Remington 700 BDL Mountain Rifle in 30-06 topped with a beat to shit Leupold 3x9-40mm.
This rifle has been dropped and dumped more than a psychotic Portugese girlfriend.
Killed some big bulls and some MD into the mid 200's with it.
I will say this......
Give a true and invested hunter a 3-03 british and cheap scope that knows how to hunt and he will always crush it compared to guys that obsess about equipment over knowledge and time invested.
Shit golfers that keep upgrading to better equipment every yr that don't invest in being better will always be shit golfers.
Beau, you use that rifle with pride.
Feel honored to carry it.
