I only have 2 rifles here in TX, the CZ and a Model 1903 Mannlicher Schoenauer in 6.5x54MS. My wife bought me the CZ the year before we got married. It's become one of my favorite rigs. Admittedly it's a little overgunned for TX but it sure cuts nice round holes in a deer. If my count is right I've taken 15 deer with it and have never fired twice at any of them and it does a lot less meat damage due to bloodshot than my old 7mm Mag which is at my place in CO.. And if I decide to go after nilgai, I've got the right rig. Big slow bullets work now just like they did 100 years ago.
