Shot my first deer this Friday just before dark with my first rifle. An R1 .300 WSM equipped with a Nikon Monarch 4-16/50. Took her from the top of a ridge shooting at a steep angle from about 225-250 yards. Perfect shot through the heart. She didn't go more than about 5 yards. Soon realized that pulling a heavy deer up a steep incline in the dark is very hard work but well worth it. Love shooting this R1. I was worried about the recoil of the round but it's like shooting my dads 308 bolt. Can't wait for Elk season!

hope this works, i'm not a computer guy. But this rifle in 300wsm only kicks like a .243 or less. Was a 200 yard shot in the neck.(that's all i could see) If i ever figure out the cycling problem with this gun, it will be my new favorite!

Nice pictures, Steve. Looks like you've been busy. How do you like the new shootin' iron. Seems to be treating you well. I know it requires less attention in the bad weather. Also wanted to thank you for your years of service, protecting people like me, on this veterans day..Mike God Bless the Veteran...

Awsome photos. Been out west last two years elk hunting. Hoping to get a trip to alaska moose hunting next. Love the pics of the bear tracks in the sand. Gotta tell you your pics make that place look like heaven for a sportsman. Loved it out west but that looks even more impressive
