Ghogs NM- I didnt do any load development, ran out of time. I had a bunch of 150gr NBT's laying around and I loaded them in front of 45gr of Varget. I think it shoots pretty good (just under 1" CTC-5 shots at 100yds), surely it will get better with some load development and some more rounds down the barrel.
High Cotton- I deer hunt mostly in W TN, in Haywood county on a buddy's farm. Thanks for the complement.

Great deer. What scope are you using on your LR308? I love that rifle.

Its a cheapo Simmons whitetail 6.5-20x50 from midway. It was the one that they were selling for $125 most of this year with the mildot reticle. Not bad for $125, but still a POS. I need to start investing in glass instead of more rifles and more reloading gear- I guess you have to have all of it though. The rifle is awesome and I love it, but I will always be partial to bolt guns.
