Hunting with my garand in TN

**garthok** · 04-10-2013 10:42 AM

I took my CMP icon

Garand hunting on the last day of the season last year. Shot an antler-less buck (in TN counts as one of your daily limit of 3 does). I hunt for food, decorations are an afterthought.

Still, he is a bit small. Shot at ~30 yards through brush after he tried sneaking behind me with a 150gr Hornady SST sitting on 48gr IMR4895.

A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered. Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping. In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail. I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!). CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles.

I shot my first two point in 1980 with my LL M1 icon

and hand loads. Went down like he was hit by lightning. Still have the rifle and the horn hat. I guess they do work...
