Well, was able to draw the tag we are able to draw every 3-4 years. Muzzleloader..........
He was at 550 which is no issue with the weapon I had but the wind was epic.
] Great buck, congrats. And congrats on the hunt itself. Did I read that right, a muzzleloader hunt and 550 not an issue except for the wind? Care to share any details on bullet, load, etc? Its a custom MZ to take advantage of lax laws in certain states. It shoots a fit to bore Parker Black Max 275 grain .45 bullet at 2600 with 115 grains of BH. It's extreme accurate...

The people wringing their hands over Trump's rhetoric don't know what time it is in America.

Dang, seems like everyone else shooting that far with an ML is using sabots and smokeless. Very cool.

Man Greg, you’re my idol. I do almost nothing to mimic your approach and continued success but I do sit back and marvel and always excited for your posts 😆

The recoil on that setup is a far cry from a 6x45. Nice buck! Thank you for sharing the story and photos.

Great buck, hunt and write up! Both my real and artificial knees ache just looking at those pics!
The scenery isn’t as epic on my trips as it is on yours, but I need to follow your lead in capturing pics of it to help bolster the memories.
What size spotting scope do you use once you find them with the 12x Meoptas?
