I have drawn out for a limited-entry hunt in southern Utah along with my wife's dad and her sister.

We will be going after trophy Mule Deer and I have a safe full of rifles to pick from.

I am leaning toward my .300WSM Model 70 Featherweight (with a Leuopold 3-9 scope) but I shoot 2,000+ rounds a year in Various M1-configured rifles.

I can operate the M1 in my sleep and I regularly shoot it out to 500 yards with open sights.

My match rifle weighs ~11 lbs and the Winny is ~8 lbs and my 50-year-old ass will be on the hoof.

What would you do?
