Even though I never shot anything at my far feeder (287 yds) with my 300wm, the 6.5 CTR will probably get the most action this season. Maybe 300BO at stands with closer feeders (<150). New case too. Double scoped rifle my arse! Was able to cut it so each rifle fit, one at a time.

Got a head start on you guys last month in South Africa. Knocked down a few critters with the Tikka T3x that I had Trigger Time rebarrel in 30 Nosler topped off with an NF ATACR 4-16. The SFP came in handy when we were after Kudu in the thick stuff. Let me tell you, the 215 Berger Hybrids were a sledge hammer. They performed flawlessly in the open country and got to stretch it out with the zebra at 450 yds and the warthog at 728 yds.   Wow.

DPMS LR-308, picked this up a few months ago. I'm gonna use it primarily this year for deer and pigs. I don't have a pic but I also bought one of the Ruger Americans in .450 Bushmaster that's going to see a hunt or two

Primary is a Tikka T3X CTR Stainless in .260 Rem wearing a Nightforce SHV 5-20 shooting my handloaded 143 gr ELD-X.  Backup, or if I get mad enough at 'em to really reach out is my Savage 116 action with a Shilen 8 twist 7 Rem Mag barrel wearing a Nightforce ATACR 5-25 also shooting my handloaded 180 gr ELD-M. Probably not the best bullet choice for deer, but with the speed and energy of this round, it ain't gonna matter.

my new CORE Solutions, 6.5 Creedmoor, Swaro 5-30. Hopefully I can find a dry range for one more chrono test, decide which load (got it narrowed down to two) set final zero, then load a box for the season. I really need to get to a steel range and confirm BDC setting zero's. So much to do , so little time. Oh yea, re-sight in the new/old 700, .270 with its new scope and trigger. I'll get pics of it at the next range trips

Same boringly accurate rifle for the last 4 years. Horizon Firearms 6.5 Creedmoor. 
Just to make sure that it is done thoroughly, I go both ways.

Tikka CTR, .308, with Leupold VX5-Hd, shooting Hornady Superformance, SST, 165 gr. This ammo from this rifle hammers everything I've ever shot.
An unethical shot is one you take, that you know you shouldn't.

Boring DPMS .308 here. Really laid the smack on a spike this weekend (MLD) with a 170 grain 30-30 bullet and 44 grains of 4064.
The secret to a long life is to try not to shorten it.

Opening morning it will probably be the 300RUM Sendero SF. I already have my buck for the year but I have my eye on a really big Boar and think my best chance at him is going to be at about 300 yards away. Plus you never know when one of them pesky Yotes might need a full dose of 300RUM as well.
