I love my ML-II. I have taken several deer with it and never needed to reload for a second shot. I use the Hornady SST with the black MMP sabots and IMR4759. My longest is 184 yards ranged and closest at 41 yards ranged. My only complaint is when hunting in December in NY it can get pretty cold and handling the 209 primers can be a royal PITA with gloves on.

That said, I am sad that it seems Savage discontinued the 10-ML.
