Best deer rifle ever made. You really ought to keep it.

[URL=http://s612.photobucket.com/user/gregintenn/media/99%20savage/IMG_2287_zps34d8ed1c.jpg.html][/URL] This old 303 Savage will probably get some woods time before next week is over.

What's is chambered fer? :cool:

I do like the old Savages. The new ones are great, but pretty went by the wayside for some reason.

Parking brake my friend.....parking brake.

You're probably right. At any rate, here's my rainy weather rifle. A Spanish 7x57. I've got less than $100 in it loaded. After finally getting the barrel clean, which took several years of intermittent cleaning, it's beginning to show a glimmer of promise in the accuracy department. I hate photobucket! :wall: It wasn't sideways when I posted it. [URL=http://s612.photobucket.com/user/gregintenn/media/downsized_1119151528%202_zps8pupqqyf.jpg.html][/URL]

So....what ya' gettin' done?

If it's raining, I have an old Spanish Mauser I sporterized, but if it's not, I can't decide which rifle goes with me. If my youngest son goes with me, he'll be packing a rifle, and I might just carry a revolver.   What will you be packin'?    

The Lebanon Gun Shop on Hartman Drive also has a gunsmith. I haven't employed him so far, but he is a nice guy and seems very knowledgeable.   Sam Hoster is the local resident 1911 guru. He is in the same building with Asherbranner's Pawn Shop on South Water (109) in Gallatin. He's part time now and I'm unsure of his hours.

  They're a hundred dollar gun. One shouldn't expect Colt quality, but for a hundred dollar gun, they represent good value.

This....with a shot of Nu Finish liquid car polish.

I've done it both ways with no ill effects. I'll usually crimp them just to be on the safe side.

Yeah. There hasn't been a lot of detail released yet. It'll be interesting to hear.

I thought he made a nice addition. :popcorn:

This is something we all need to do more often. Management hears daily about where they've screwed up. It would be beneficial to let them know they're doing something right on occasion as well.

That's a good consideration. I am well stocked with dedicated deer rifles, however, and don't have any desire for an AR chambered for anything other than .556.

For the most part, they're now old enough to fend for themselves. The young ones also make for good eating. An antlerless buck is considered the same as a doe per twra regulations, and will not count against your buck limit. It's hard to tell the difference in a hunting situation.

If you aren't a Christian, who are you gonna repent to?

So far, I haven't done it either. You've outlined the reason quite well. Tracking a well hit deer for a long distance was the cheif reason I got out of bow hunting. Thanks for your opinion. I may shelf the idea for now.

You can only kill two bucks the entire season this year. :shrug: :shrug: I guess I need to read the guide each season.

I had a 22 once. I would have kept it, but I let a co worker talk me out of it. It was every bit as accurate as my Ruger or Colt. The action was smoother than the Ruger, and the trigger was better. Fit and finish was that of an inexpensive gun. A lot of fun to shoot.

I shoot mine quite a bit, and don't feel the recoil is all that bad. You're correct; they are quite accurate with a bit of practice and getting used to the trigger.

Take a moment and inventory your stash. If you're able to count it, you don't have enough. NOW is the time to stock up. Don't say Greg didn't warn you. Don't come crying here after the next ammo hysteria. Buy it cheap and stack it deep . It won't get any cheaper than today folks. :up:

You tend to dismiss it, or at least I do, until it happens right down the street. Well, this happened right down the street.

Florida is a nice place to visit, but you're right: it's great to be in Tennessee!
