Montana Mulie

A young Montana mule deer. Taken at 93 yards with my 1946 Savage in .300 Savage cartridge, and vintage 2.5x Weaver scope in Stith mount.

That's cool! I have one of those old, fixed power Weaver scopes too.

Thanks Coach. I'm having issues with keeping it zeroed, but it may be operator error. I need more range time to feel confident with the scope.

You may have heard this, but the mounts are usually to blame for that. I learned buy good scope mounts to save yourself a lot of grief.

Shooting at deer image targets at distance where the image approximates the animals size at ranges helps' too. This is an impala image I used prior to one of my trips to Africa. Standard “bullseye” targets don’t relate to large animals for me. It’s also more fun on the range.
