My Dads Rifle


Recommended Posts

The past couple of weeks have been pretty rough. My dad went into the hospital last Wednesday, and by Monday afternoon, I was holding his hand as he took his last breath. The last 2 days have been a whirlwind, so I took A bit of time today to prep one of the rifles he left me. It is a new in the box Remington 7400 chambered in .308 with a Remington 4-12x40 scope. After tightening down the scope mount, I walked Up to my pond to get setup. As I crested The hill, I saw A very nice 8 and a doe standing at the edge of the pond. I watched As they left and got setup. I got The gun sighted in and then laid down a decent 3 shot group. After that I tweaked it and got her shooting nicely in the bullseye. This year I will Hunt all gun season with this rifle in honor of my dad.
