HighDesert...300 acres is a nice purchase for a 23yr old that's still in school.
Fist off, your Savage 40 is more like $175 more than my NEF. You said $100.
Secondly, what does your sub-MOA groups have to do with deer season? Last time I checked, a deer's lungs were over 8".
Lastly, my NEF will shoot sub MOA groups at 100yds. End of story. You don't believe it, I don't care. So you're shooting sub 2" groups at 200...that's great!
BTW...nothing turns people off more than a know-it-all, so if you see one, inform them.
