It's the first day of buck season here in Pennsylvania, and my husband decided to take his great-grandfather's 300 savage for a walk this morning. By 7 a.m. I got a call. I attached a picture of proof that it done him good.
Yes, this old gun is making this beautiful thing even more sweeter. He took a 75-yard shot and it stumbled & ran directly toward him, to within 20 yards. 'Course he shot it again because he wasn't giving him the opportunity to get away.
I'm thrilled he took my advice and took the Savage over the 8 mm, and what an awesome story to send with the gun when our son inherits it. That was the second thing he said after he told me he shot it.
They just don't grow buck around here like this, and it even has a drop tine. This is a once-in-a-lifetime buck, and what a blessing it is! It'll be awhile until that smile is wiped off his face.
I'm sold! My husband got up this morning and finished filling his tag with a huge doe with one shot. Down she went. Our freezer's stocked for the year.
Out-freakin-standing! Nice buck. I don't believe it, of course - no Savage 99 in .300 savage could ever kill a deer (only the magnum buttstompers can), but we'll pretend your story is true!
Question: The Savage 99s are pretty cool, but aren't they unnecessarily looooooong, what with that long receiver, and the long wood area behind the receiver, above where the lever cycles?
If you have the patience to wade through our customary bickering, you will probably find some helpful venison prep info and cooking ideas in this old thread...
I love it when a 300 Savage is mentioned most of the morons that happen to be around all say man thats way too much for deer thinking its about like a 300 Win Mag.
