After 30-sum years of hunting and a couple of "short starts" I have Finally put together the PERFECT hunting gun (for the continential US). Its a Browning White Gold Medallion in .270 Winchester with a Leupold VX-III 3.5 X 10 with the CDS
( http://www.leupold.com/CDS/ ) (point blank point of aim from 200 yrds to 650 yrds).
Shooting a 150 grain slug at 2850 ' per sec at the barrel it retains 1300 ' lbs at 500 yards.
Its a dream to shoot (comparing to my old 7MM Mag and various "Short Mags" that Ive shot. Its about as flat a shootin gun as you'll find. THIS one is as purty as I could put together.
Cant wait to bloody it up.

Nice setup for sure! The only thing I would have done different was make it a .280
Post some targets when you shoot it...like to see how she does. That CDS is sweet for sure. Gorgeous rifle ...almost too pretty to hunt with! (
