I killed it 12 pt Buck with one but got rid of it because it didn’t take well to a scope.

If you want to sell the BAR let me know! I hat one in 7 mag which was stolen 10 years ago (in a burglary) and am trying to replace it. I’d swap the barrel to a 7 mag and go from there.

Last year.

Nice Buck. Congratulations on the family man approach. I came from a broken family and am trying to make up for it with my kids and grandkids! And nice rifle, I also shoot a Model 70.

One of my fears is when I die my wife will sell my guns for what I told her I paid for them!

If you miss in my camp we cut your shirt tail!

Because 270 leaves it in the dust!

That’s the “Rifleman’s Rifle “.

Winchester Model 70 is hard to beat. I like the Classic version with control round feed. You don’t need to spend a lot for pre-64 versions since modern cnc machining reduces labor costs and provides safer gas venting for a pierced primer. I have a classic wood and blued version made in New Haven...

My longest confirmed kill on a whitetail was 455 yards. I of course use the “Rifleman’s rifle “ Winchester 70 with CRF. I’ve used this cartridge for 40 plus years and why fix it if it’s not broken? A little custom reloading gives it better results. My personal favorite is the Scirocco 130’s when...

Amen brother the 270 Winchester is my all around favorite. I have 90 gn reloads for varmits and 130 for deer. If I need something heavier I use the 7 mag.

I have used the 270 for about 40 years in numerous rifles. 130 grain for deer and hogs and 90 for varmi I have used the old 270 for about 40 years. I use 130 grain for deer and hogs and 90 for smaller game. Over the years I’ve had various rifles however my current one is a Winchester model 70...

Hands down 270. I've been using it for over 40 years. If I do my part, nothing survives it. Jack Conley killed almost every big game on the planet including elephants.

You don't save money by reloading. You just shoot more!
