Re: Taking the 35 Rem. plunge
I think that is a great rifle. Standard Rem Corelokt 200s are very accurate in mine which has a K3 on it. Lot of handloading possibilities but the standard 200s over 39 gr of 4064 or 38 gr of 4895 are hard to beat.

Re: Hit a deer.
Well, deer probably more ran into the jeep that the other way around. Fur or hairs under the plastic side door protector and no damage. My guess is the deer was stunned a bit and ran off. She went back and shined the headlights around the adjoining field and found nothing.

Hit a deer.
You are on the phone with a friend and a deer runs out in front of her at about 40 mph. She is alone, it is dark, 56 year old female. She sees it behind her flopping in the road. She is unarmed. What do you tell her to do. It is a buck with a rack.

Re: Scout mount versus over the receiver.
I find the over the receiver much easier to pick up but others seem to like the scout. I think it is personal preference. I like scopes to be naturally aligned when I shoulder the rifle and the scout seems to make it a much smaller opening to align with.
