    My first was a Savage LRP, then I bought a Rem 700 SPS, then I built 3 more on Savage Target actions. Here is one I built a few days ago. Savage target action, Nikon X1000 6x24Black, I threaded a McGowen barrel and put break on it. After finding a good load, I made 100 rounds.

    I'll use either my Winchester M70 in .270 or my Model 94 30-30 depending how tight the area is I'll be hunting ... love 'em both!

    My favorite caliber is my 270 WSM, I got this gun browning a-bolt medallion in a trade quite a few years ago best trade I have ever made I absolutely love this rifle. I put a vortex viper HST on it, I trust this rifle.

    It took me a long time to find a good solid load for it but I finally did, 68.5 grs of H-1000 and 140 accubonds this is a deer slayer.

    I'm working on a 140 Accubond for my 7mm. Looks to be pretty accurate at this point and going 3215fps since I've decided to stop using 130 grain SST's out of my .270. Had a bad experience and think they are too frangible.

    I’m with you in that dislike of the SST’s! I always liked how they shot, but never liked their performance on deer.
