Tom--I was sure because of the title of this post you scored one with my old 700ML! Darn.
Congrats Rooster! That's a heck of a nice buck. Good for you.

WN I wish. I didn't get to use it this year. The fiber optic front sight broke and I had to put the factory back on. I couldn't sight it in before the season started. I used my BIL's TC Triumph. That is one heckova nice gun.
Camp is where you make it.

Just a quick update. I brought the buck into the taxi yesterday and he scored it while it was still froze. He came up with a tish over 149" gross and figures there is at least another inch to be gained once the cape thaws out and relaxes around the left base. I'm pretty darn happy with that!

Man he looks bigger than 149"... The taxi said he's going to score him again when he's all skinned out. The cape was froze up around the base of the antlers so he couldn't get the tape around where he needed to. But truthfully, I really couldn't care less about score but it is nice to know what "range" it falls in. Thanks for the kind comments fellas!
