compact rifle

Funny thing, the lightest easiest to carry thing I have(besides my Super Blackhawk) is my Savage 111 270 package gun. I shoot 130s in it mostly. As I edge toward retirement I am thinking about using it exclusively for all my hunts( except for maybe AK, shopping for a 338 for that). Its light, way easy to carry, ammo's cheap, accurate, and I can get lighter bullet wt ammo for coyotes and other CO pests. Pretty it aint, but accurate it is. Its taken me 40 yrs but I know now why Jack O'C loved the 270 so.
 
I hunt with a T-3 Lite in 270 Win (not WSM). It consistantly shoots 1/5 moa. I put a compact 2-7x scope on it and it works like a champ. With the price at which they are selling them, it is hard to beat. especially if you are a lefthanded shooter (like me).
