    Default The PERFECT Gun!
    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.

    Little Wattsy,
    Is that a custom stock or is that a custom order from the factory? In either case, its beautiful!

    Definitely has the perfect piece of wood on it. Very nice for a factory rifle.
