Our (zone 2) KY rifle season starts saturday! About time since we ran out of meat 3 weeks ago(we ate 12 deer last year…3 growing boys and a wife who is on some new fad diet). But this year I am going to be hunting with my TC compass in 308 with a 1/12 twist using the NOE ranch dog shallow HP over 37.5 grn of Varget. This load will shoot one hole 5 round groups at 100 and keep 3” at 200.
Every year I kill a deer with a Military surplus rifle. This year it is going to be a Jap Arisaka last ditch that I’ve got loaded with a NOE 311-175NLG FN that I kept unsized. Over 16 grn of 2400 in a 270 converted case. I have t put it on paper but at 100 yards I can hit my 4” plate every time, so that’s good enough for a 35 yard tree stand shot
What are y’all using this year(or did use)
