[QUOTE="johnnyk, post: 1361476, member: 307"] Another side bar.... I have one of his rifles in .270Allen Magnum and it is a beautiful piece of machinery. It's not exactly a "mountain rifle" and not for the effeminate, as it's 14lbs without scope or add-on's, but this dog hunts! you hear me. I shoot it sparingly at targets (170gn Berger) along with a 6.5-284 Norma (147gn ELD-M)and .300 WinMag (212gn ELD-X). The later two I had first and had grown accustomed to their 19-20 MOA come-ups at 1k (300yd zero) and when I cranked the AM up and was only using 14-15 MOA at that distance, I knew I had a jewel! Last year I ran those 170's at 3450fps but decided to drop a "couple three" grains of US-869 and running it at a modest 3250fps now. Don't think these little NC whitetails will know the difference. :) JohnnyK. P.S. Kirby is there to answer any and all of your questions. [/QUOTE]
