The more i carry this rifle, the more i like it, shoots like a dream with cast boolits and the trigger is great. This savage bunny succumbed to NOE clone of 311440 (actually a 314440), loaded with 11.5grs of blue dot.

Nice shootin! What scope and rings you runnin?
Good thing you finished it off with the first shot. It's amazing how fast they're on you if merely wounded! ;-)
My American is a rimfire but I think if I wanted a handy little rough duty rifle it would look a lot like yours.
I took this coyote with mine in X39 a month or so ago:

A 110 grain Nosler Varmageddon at 2600 fps dropped him in hist tracks at 100 yards.
Leupold 2 x 7 in a set of low Warne rings, first time i ever used the warne rings and was very impressed, heavy but wicked rugged.Quote:

The Noslers were under $10/100 for a while and i couldn't pass them up at that price. My girls have shot several deer with the 123 grain Hornady's and they work great, i shot one big doe with my bonus tag this year using the Nosler and it worked well, seemed to hold together fine and had a nice sized exit hole. I will have to grab a box of the 110's and see how they shoot in my rifle. If you don't mind sharing what load are you using in yours with the 110grain bullet?Quote:

That 110 grain pill is highly explosive at that speed:

Jwhite, curious if that is a suppressor or a muzzle brake on your rifle.
I love my Ruger in x39. I bought it for my wife to hunt with and I killed a deer with it. it was the worst possible way to shoot a deer but he dropped like a sack of rocks. he was staring at me face on and I got him right in the forehead from about 35 yards, any further I wouldn’t have taken the shot, he was running as fast as he could(after a doe I assume) and by the time I could grab the rifle and figure out what was going on he had moved 200+ closer to me and I wistled and said HEY! And he stoped and looked right at me. A lee 150 flat nose PCed over 21.5 grn of imr4198 will shoot 1 inch at 100 yards 5 shots out of my rifle. I’ll see if I can get the pic, this is a new phone and no pics since then
