Sitka......same gun for me in .270..........can pack that thing for a long time.

Yup, they're a pleasure to hunt with. I worried a little about kick with the light stock when I bought it, but it's not an issue at all.

Pretty stock 7mmfan. Nothing like wood for pure aesthetics.

Thanks......I've had people offer to buy it on the spot but don't believe I'll get rid of it until I shoot the barrell out. It has two bears and a whitetail to its name....more to come.....

Normal Elk and Deer rifle is a Rem 700xcr in .300WM.

Took a buck a few years back with a Model 71 in .348.  My dad had one in the old days and I wanted to take a buck with it.  I'll attatch a pic of the .348. 

Previous years have also bagged a few bucks with a Model 760 .270, a Model 94 30-30, and even a couple bucks with shotgun slugs.

My favorite is still the xcr though...
