    Nice stock and are Nosler making solid base bullets again?
    I'm trying to get to heaven before they shut the door.

    So the 3 shot group was not 3 MOA but 3 Darns which is a much better standard to use for a positive review. 🤣

    270W, great cartridge. A successful 100 year run is notable, along with other classics that can claim the same.
    It's bit of an American thing to "celebrate" with a special release rifle to commemorate a cartridge's century. Everywhere else in the world I expect it's merely business as usual and just another day.

    That Ruger alongside anniversary models of the Winchester Featherweight, Savage 110, and Remington Mountain rifle all in walnut and blued steel with open sights, would make a wonderful collectors set.

    Yea quite good ah
    Not a bad Browning by the looks of it, but those little deer are interesting. Similar to those little Muntjac's they shoot in Ireland

    I don't know if he was doing the rifle any favors by shooting with a bipod on a hard but wobbly picnic table.

    I'd like to see him get down prone and shoot that setup off the dirt. ( there's never a handy picnic table around where I hunt )
