Welcome to the forum.
Nice looking rifle, as was said before, don't be shy with the photos!
I hope you are only planning on using those Hornady 160 grain roundnose soft points for punching holes in paper.
I had a bad experience with one of those today.
Shot an average sized doe (120 lbs field dressed) at 105 yards broadside with my 1903 MS carbine. Hit just behind the shoulder between 2 ribs, through both lungs and out through a rib on the far side.
She took off like I had missed.
First blood was found at about 150 yards from the place she stood at the shot. It took another 450-500 yards of hard tracking through a cypress swamp to find her.
ZERO bullet expansion! Looked like someone had driven a pencil straight through her.
Exit wound, even after going through the rib , looked identical to the entrance hole.
