SSS?
I have to ask: when I see "SSS" I thought it referred to "Shoot, Shovel & Shut-up" about dispatching intruders without "bothering" the proper authorities and such.

Yes
Happy to say I will be using my new axis in 243 cal..Waiting for new Nikon scope to
arrive tomorrow and get some range time..
Boring old 110 30-06. Have a long aciton MDT LSS chassis sitting collecting dust, debating on swapping that with the tupperware.
Going to do a little deer hunting. 220F Slugger and Marlin MR-7 in 25-06. 220 local and the 25 for the mountains. Shot a Doe today with the Slugger, one shot one kill. She dropped like a stone where she stood. Man I love when that happens.
Deer hunting with Winchester 70 7mm mag to start season then switch to Stevens 7mm-08 after first kill. If lucky then will take Axis 308 for a while, have other Axis set up in 22-250 for coyotes after deer season ends.
We have a month left in our deer season and I will be toting my newly acquired Savage 99 in 250 Savage through closing day.
I have already have taken three deer. A doe with a Winchester 94 30/30 iron sights. A nice 8 pt with an H&R 357 mag Handi-Rifle. A spike with a Browning BAR in 25-06.
.260 Rem M11 made meat for me tonight. :peace: See (below) the 2018 Harvest thread.

Savage 110dl mfg '69. 7mm rem mag. going to go try and killed some Florida public land Bucks. sighting it in tomorrow. Bought it in 2013 and am just now getting to the range.....
I carried my marlin 444 for deer, but hope to get the 25-06 finished up so i can use it on coyotes later
I want a 444 pretty bad, actually since I was about 12, now we can use them for deer hunting. I quit hunting deer here for 16 years because we cant use real high powers, only started again for my son. For this year I let him use my mossberg 20 and I carry a 1911 to push through the brush. I have taken 2 deer with the 45 so far.
I've toted a Savage Axis 243 for whitetail in Texas and Oklahoma this season and have anchored 4 deer and a handful of hogs. Its wearing a Leupold vx-3i 3.5-10 scope. I handload a Barnes 80 ttsx at 3425 fps. It's quite effective.
savage 1920 bolt action in 250 savage. took a nice 4 point in wva with 90gr sierra BTHP. dropped where he stood at ranged 137 yards. 36.5 grs of varget moves these 90's at 3055 avg fps. i also use it on coyotes with hornady 75 gr Vmax with 42grs of varget for avg fps of 3475!!! its deadly out to 400 yards!!!

125lb Black bear at 265 yards with a Howa Mini-action in 6.5 Grendel

I will be shooting my axis in 22-250 for coyotes. For Big game either my Winchester model 88 in .308 or my trusty excalibur exocet 200.
