you hunt 4570 [what you shooten there tex ] is a line from a old movie or tv show I forgot . Another line we use from old movie is[ nice shooten tex]. Just a running joke. What cal. is the bolt action in the rest ? Most people are into AR 's now a days . I shoot a Rem. 700 bdl 30/06 ,leopeuld vx6 boone and crocket 50mm ,bi pod home made raised cheek piece to much other crap to list . I started shooten Hornaday custom lite 125 g sst cause I have 2 hernated discs in my back and I can't take the recoil anymore. I would like to buy a lower recoil rifle but I am torn between a Ruger 77 / 17 and another Rem. 700 vtr in 223.:confused3: Just looken to see what else is out there.:drink:
Ok, sorry, I did live in Texas for a number of years.... The gun sitting there in the rest is a Tikka T3x Hunter in Stainless with a fluted barrel.. 6.5 Creedmoor.
Yeah, I do not "run with the pack" I don't even own an "AR".. I do have a SCAR 16s instead though. I kind of got tired of the whole black rifle craze and prefer wood myself. I've had both my shoulders redone and was looking to reduce some recoil myself a while back. Shot a Win M70 for years in 3006 but it was getting to be a bit much on my shoulder, Not bad for that one shot hunting, but if I wanted to play at the range it got to be a pain.. literally.
Have a look at a Tikka (made by Sako) great rifle and very accurate, and the 6.5 CM is a pleasure to shoot and still allows some distance shots.. a deer at 3-400 yds if needed would be no big deal..
