Four years ago i got a 3pt whitetail with my dads Browning blr in 358 and last year i hunted the general season with my Winchester 1886 light rifle in 45-70 i didn't get anything with that so i took my Marlin 336 ss in 30-30 and shot a spike whitetail in the northeast corner durlng the late season. |

I've got a 1895 gbl in 45/70 that I love. Never had a firearm ice enjoyed carrying as much as this one. Sending a 350g hornady flat point at about 2100 fps equals some pretty serious knockdown power. I put on a good recoil pad, and a peep sight. I'll probably end up with another 1895, but the all weather version. Love the looks of that gun. |

Ended up not getting to schedule a modern hunt this year but my plan was to use my old man's model 99 savage in 300. I will be next year though. |
