Congrats to the young lady and way to go Dad!
I have the Left handed X Bolt Hunter in 25-06 as well. They are both quite accurate.I will be picking up one of those Browning Micros for my Son soon.
I have no problem with that. Done the same several times. Gettin too for those long drags.I like you Bigbrad. I killed a spike buck this year because I drove right passed him standing 10 yards off the road. I was 150 yards passed him and I stopped to open a gate. I told myself if he's still standing there when I get the gun out, load it, put one in the chamber, and walked back around the corner he was going to get it. He was. This was my drag.

My deer couldn't have been any easier and the best meat ever! I say "He won't look good on my wall, but he sure looks good in my freezer."
