“Lucy’s “ first kill

[Deer Assassin]

Not my wife she has kill 7 to include a 4 year old 9 point all with crossbow

But my rifle named Lucy after my wife

1981 year she was born
REM 700 30/06
All factory

This rifle shoots good …. I'm mean as good as custom barrel rifles I own

The trigger sucks

130 grain Hornady flat base (old bullets no clue really)
Over re 15 2856 fps

Caught this fella in the fog yesterday

There is something to be said about those older rifles. As the old saying goes "they don't make them like they used to."

He's getting soft in his old age. Inside that hard crunchy outside there's a soft nougaty inside

I love those old Remingtons
I know what you mean about the accuracy of some. I always have to fix or adjust the triggers though

Congrats....and nice rifle....I have a late 80s M700 BDL in 30-06...and I understand your opinion on the trigger....mine is the same....I need to upgrade, just never have.
