Remington Model 700 .243 with 3x9-50 Leaupold... right in the ear. ;-)

Shot a bunch through it and couldn't get it right. I think it is the cheap old scope she has. So she took my 30-06. She killed her first elk with it two days later. That gun has killed a lot of elk. Me I packed my 300 Win Mag but I never saw a legal bull. A three point or better area all I could find was spikes and cows. All three guns are Ruger M77. My two have Leopold scopes, hers has an old Bushnell Banner scope. Next year hers will have a Leopold.
