What will you shoot your deer with this weekend?

[undeg01]

Wow I would be completely exhausted carrying all those to the stand.........

No kidding! If you have the location that allows shots from 200 - 1,000 yards, go with the 1,000 yard gun. If the deer ends up being within 200 yards, simply put the shot through his eyeball.

Those are not all carried to the stand, only one at a time.

Well, it’s looking like there may be an outside chance I’ll get to come up this weekend!!!

I haven’t hunted OK rifle season since 2009, and I’m pretty excited but am mentally prepared for it not to work out.

That being said, if I do get to hunt, my weapon of choice will be a Blaser R93 Professional in 270 Win topped with a rail mount Swarovski Z6i 1.7-10 using handloaded 150 gr ammo.

Interesting, I saw one for sale about a month ago and was just reading a couple of days ago that they'd stopped production of the R93.

Yes, the current model is the R8, but in my opinion, the R8 doesn’t offer any real improvement over the R93 to justify “upgrading”. I’ve had mine at least 10 years and am pretty heavily vested in it financially, and it’s a blistering tack driver.
