I've had my "dangerous" Savage ML-2 for over a decade now. 300grn Barnes, black MMP sabots, Vhitavouri N-110 powder (bought a 2# jug of it when I bought the rifle, I only shoot the gun a few times a year so I'll likely shoot this powder for the rest of my life) & I clean it with brake cleaner 1ce a season.

I'd like to personally meet TB, just to see the expression on his face of the impression of my fist upon it! :wink:

This 220# "crabclaw" buck was 175yds, headin straight away from me. With the ML-10 & Barnes I had plenty of confidence for a "TX heartshot". The ol boy ran less than 30yds before he did the "Curly Shuffle" one last time in the leaves! :woot:

Ps,
TBs now with Traditions? lmao that's EXACTLY where he deserves to be! Crap hawkin crap... :D

I LOVE my Savage ML, it's THE best time to be in the woods in my area of west TN (mid Nov). This 220#, 21" 6pt was HIGHLY allergic to the Savage as he walked by at 45yds!

LOVE mid Nov & my "smokeless pole", :party0005:

Ps,
Tell TB I said he's an idiot, he'll know what I mean!
