Hey Zrex,
So as youare passing the deer to get past it by 25 yardsdo you crawl under it or hop over it?

If I see a deer at 500 yds, I'll drive within 300 yds, walk another 150, crawl another 75 and shoot hm in the neck with my .22 hornet.

your math is wrong.
within 300 means theres 300 left, 150 walking leaves 150, 75 crawling leaves 75.
Was a joke anyway. or maybe not.

I started wringing this Marlin XL7 in 270 Win out today. Not bad for a $289 rifle. I just pulled a couple of loads from a Hodgdon manual. I didnt load enough of the ones that shot well at 100yds so I didnt use them at 300 yds. But here is a factory load and a "run of the mill" handload.
I too figured more responses to this thread.........it's not hard fire 9 shots down range.

I can't wait to get out and shoot some more. When I do I'll make sure to post, no range but will be 'truck-hood' groups so don't expect amazing results.

How about a few of these shot with factory savage rifles?
First time at the range with new savage F/tr in 308 since have shot some very tight groups at 300 yds but still working on a perfect load for it.Took it to my first 600 yd match a couple week ago and shot a 4.57 in group with four 5-shot groups which wasn't good but not bad for the first time.
Next 300 yd with different rifle and loadN120 @ 69 grs and 250 sst

I don't shoot these good groups all time,wish I could.These are justsome of my better groups. I do shoot a lot I am at the range at least one day a week with my shooting buddies.
